ARLINGTON, Texas -- Ian Kinsler is eligible to return from the 15-day disabled list on Monday, but it appears the second baseman will be sidelined for an additional two weeks.

Rangers president of baseball operations and general manager Jon Daniels, in a news conference Wednesday, called Kinsler's rib injury a stress reaction, one step short of a stress fracture.

"We don't have an exact timeframe for a return. He's sore right now," Daniels said. "It is kind of up to him, how he's feeling."

Daniels said Kinsler has not resumed baseball activities.

Manager Ron Washington said Jurickson Profar and Leury Garcia would continue to fill in at second base in Kinsler's absence, with Profar getting a little more of the playing time.

"We miss Kinsler a lot, his presence, what he brings to the offense," Washington said. "But at the same time, I've got to give credit to our young guys. We've still been able to win games."
