After two straight starts by Jurickson Profar at second base, Leury Garcia was in the lineup on Wednesday afternoon as the Rangers try to get by while Ian Kinsler is on the disabled list with a strained muscle in his right ribcage.

But he is one of several under consideration to pitch the second game of a doubleheader against the Diamondbacks on Monday in Arizona.
