The Texas Rangers look to bounce back from a tough two game series against Houston today, on the road in Detroit to start a four game set. Shin-Soo Choo and his achy quad get the day off, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa is behind the plate.

The lineup:

DeShields — CF

Elvis — SS

Mazara — RF

Beltre — DH

Odor — 2B

Profar — 3B

Gallo — LF

Isiah Kiner-Falefa — C

Guzman — 1B

Yovani Gallardo is on the mound against lefthander Matthew Boyd for Detroit.
