Rangers manager Ron Washington said infielders Jurickson Profar and Leury Garcia will split time at second base with Ian Kinsler on the shelf, ESPN reports Monday.

Profar started Monday against Oakland. While the fans want to see Profar, a top prospect, every day, Washington wants to keep Garcia active.

"Leury's going to get some time there," Washington said. "So when you see Profar sitting, don't be surprised."

Kyle McClellan feeling good in rehab
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Kyle McClellan took another step towards getting back on a major league mound Monday, the Dallas Morning News reports. McClellan made his second appearance with Double-A Frisco.

He pitched an inning and did not give up a hit. McClellan last pitched in the majors in July 2012 with the Cardinals before he underwent season-ending shoulder surgery. He signed a minor league contract with the Rangers in the offseason, but injured his lat in spring training.

"I feel, now, better than I’ve felt in two years," McClellan said. "I don’t have to think about my shoulder when I go out there."
