With the Rangers up 2-0 over the Blue Jays and looking to sweep tonight, Adrian Beltre is still out of the lineup due to a bad back.

The lineup:

DeShields -- CF

Choo -- RF

Prince -- DH

Moreland --1B

Elvis -- SS

Hamilton -- LF

Odor -- 2B

Chirinos -- C

Alberto -- 3B

Martin Perez faces Marco Estrada

UPDATE -- The beat guys on Twitter are saying Beltre has shown a lot of improvement, and the door is apparently open (albeit just a crack) for Beltre to end up talking his way into the lineup before game time.  Stay tuned...
