Can't wait for what this season has instore. They don't need Cliff Lee and the antler hands can prove it. 3/30/2011 9:51:18 PM |

I hope C.J. can pitch as good as he did last year. I'm looking forward to the season for Texas this year. 3/30/2011 10:54:10 PM |

Andrus Kinsler Young Hamilton Cruz Beltre Murphy Borbon Napoli/Torreabla
Rotation Wilson Lewis Holland Hunter? Ogandi? Webb? Harrison? Feldman?
O'Day Oliver Rhodes Feliz
Kick ass lineup and bullpen. Decent 1-2 Starters, questionable after that. Still probably AL West favs unless Oakland's rotation can carry them.

Rangers are well built to get after lefties this season with Kinsler/Cruz/Young/Napoli in the lineup. 4/1/2011 9:55:02 PM |

I know they say defense wins championships but if those 4 guys keep knocking bombs out of the park they are gonna be hard to stop 4/3/2011 12:22:54 AM |

They have some hot bats right now that is for sure. 4/3/2011 6:00:41 PM |

If Harrison and Holland can both turn out to be solid pitchers then the Rangers will be very good this season. Heck of a performance by Harrison today. 4/3/2011 6:04:59 PM |

I think they just need to stay healthy. The sox were picked to win the division this year and the rangers handed them their ass this weekend. 4/3/2011 7:45:41 PM |

I really don't understand why there are so many people picking the A's to win the division. The Rangers have essentially the same exact team they won the division with last year (remember, Lee did pretty much nothing to help in the regular season), and the A's only slightly improved.
These people are trying to tell me that by adding Josh Willingham and Coco Crisp they've gained 9 games on the Rangers? 4/4/2011 9:33:05 AM |

They got back Brett Anderson too, who's a solid pitcher. But yeah, they still don't have much in the way of offense and I think Cahill is overrated. 4/4/2011 9:47:17 AM |

Another Impressive win. Nelson Cruz with 4 hr in 4 games. 4/4/2011 11:19:51 PM |

5-0. Ogandi with 6 shutout innings. If this team keeps getting this kind of pitching look out. Feliz is already a top closer. 4/5/2011 11:15:06 PM |

They've had Coco Crisp. I think most people were referring to their improved pitching, not those two replacement level bums. 4/6/2011 9:29:25 AM |
ElGimpy All American 3111 Posts user info edit post |
Oh...well, either way...they already had the lowest ERA in the AL...seems like a tall order to squeeze out that many more wins by improving on the only thing they were actually good at...how much room was there to improve really? 4/6/2011 10:29:18 AM |

I agree with you, just sharing the media sentiment. They're never going to a be a consistent factor until they get a new park. That place is a mausoleum. 4/6/2011 10:32:39 AM |

I was there last year...I kind of liked it...I literally felt like it was 1986 the whole time I was at the game 4/6/2011 10:35:37 AM |

The things we will do for runs...
Just watched the replay. Doesn't seem like it was anything major just looking at it so maybe he just tweaked it a little

Just got a text from the Hamilton camp. He's getting an MRI. He may have torn something... 4/12/2011 3:17:07 PM |

Hm. Jones is a yankee now. How many former braves players do they need 4/17/2011 10:28:53 PM |
