2023 Texas Rangers

It's gonna be tough. with houston and the loaded east. i hope we don't give way to the astros then end up 7th in the AL.
 
Rangers win series in Pittsburgh and are at 31 wins for the season. Almost 1/3 way into the year and the dream continues.
 
Nice to get the series W on the road in Pittsburg. It will be a bit tougher in Baltimore this weekend. I'm guessing one W in the 3 games with the O's; if the Rangers can get 2 wins, it would be an outstanding road trip.
And I don't doubt the Astros for a second - they are coming on strong, and they're still the favorite for the AL West. If the Rangers an keep it going and get a Wild Card slot, that would be an outstanding season (and would exceed most reasonable expectations).
 
If they can just play .500 ball until the All-Star Break and get the injured back and productive a Wild Card is well within reach.
 
The Rangers have shown the ability to bounce back from a losing streak (the three games to the Reds, for example). If they can avoid a prolonges losing streak and continue winning each series, they will continue to lead the AL West - and I'm willing to bet they can still be leading at the All-Star break.

The bullpen is pretty much Will Smith and a whole lot of praying. The Rangers are winning by scoring a crapload of runs relying on their strong starting rotation and then just hoping to get to Smith. I am not sure that is sustainable. If the Rangers can get just a solid bullpen they have real shot at 90 plus wins which isnt something I remotely imagined would be possible just 60 days ago.
 
Rangers open the series in Baltimore with a 12-2 win and head into Memorial Day weekend 14 games over .500. WOW just WOW!:texasflag:
 
As long as Gray and deGrom are not injured at the same time, one Wild Card is definitely there for the Rangers to lose.
 
Sunday: overall young starter Bradford pitched well. Bats were not as hot as of late. Bradish and Cano were tough for O's today.

Final 3-2

Was a game good guys could have won... R's took the series tho. Head to Detroit vs. < .500 team.
 
Tough loss today but two straight series wins make Texas 4-2 on this nine game road trip and that is a great position to be in heading into the weakest of the three teams the Rangers will face on this trip.
 
Ho- humm... Rangers win - pound Tiggers, again 10-6!!!

Perez was off tonight - pitched about 5 innings and gave up some runs. Anderson pitched damn good in relief. Bunch of strikeouts held the lead at the time. Has a wicked throwing motion.

All the starters are contributing at bats lately.... especially Josh Jung who had a huge game tonight!

Bochy doing terrific job so far!

35-19 on the season and still in 1st place in the West!

Fellow Ranger fanatics, I haven't had a chance to get out to Globe Life yet this year but I will be at the game next Wednesday against the Cardinals. If anyone else is heading to that one PM me and perhaps we can put faces to screen names.:texasflag:
 
Best 55 game start in team history. Let that one sink in for a minute. This morning on the ticket they were going over some just incredible stats including the fact that the starting rotation has record of 26-9, best in the majors and that is with the DeGrom injury. The starters are averaging almost six innings a game and the stats on offense are even more fantastic. Imagine if the Rangers had just a solid bullpen.

We are almost a third of the way into the season and this dream start just keeps on going. All I can say is don't wake me up.
 
Friday: Rangers grind out a 2-0 win over Seattle.

Couldn't watch the game, but monitored on game track.

36-20 on the season!

Have you looked at the batting average of the Rangers lately?

I did today - wow! 4 or so are over .300 and several were almost .300. Only 1 was below .250 IIRC.
 
Final was 12-3 Good Guys.

38-20 on the season.

<.500 St. Louis comes to Arlington Monday for 3 games....Rangers licking their chops!!!
 
Seems like a LOT of Cards fans at this home game - very loud.
