Ezequiel Duran Called Up, Josh Smith Placed On IL
3 years agoThe Texas Rangers recalled MLB Pipeline's number 76 prospect, third baseman Ezequiel Duran, on Saturday. Duran hit the cover off the ball for AA Frisco this season, slashing .317/.365/.574 with seven home runs and seven stolen bases. He has five-category potential and is worthy of a speculative add in most leagues. To make room for Duran, the Rangers also placed third baseman Josh Smith on the 10-day IL with a left shoulder sprain. Smith went five-for-twelve with a stolen base in his first five games.
