Corey Seager’s early season slump is largely a problem with lefthanded pitchers

The Texas Rangers offense so far in 2024 has been...not bad. Fine. Kind of good, even, objectively speaking. The team has an OPS+ and a wRC+ of 104, meaning that, park and league adjusted, the offense has been 4% above average.

However...the Texas Rangers offense was not supposed to just be not bad, fine, kind of good. After being at or near the top of just about...

Recapping a winning week for the Rangers

2024 Season Record: 19-16 2024 Series Record: 6-4, 1 split

This was a very good and very weird week for the Rangers.

GAME 30: 7-1 Win vs Washington Nationals

This was a really well rounded game from all points, pitching, defense, and offensive standpoint.

Thought on a 3-2 Rangers win

Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

Rangers 3, Royals 2

Rangers 3, Royals 2

One of the questions that is discusses vis-a-vis sports is whether winning feels better than losing feels bad. I don’t know that there’s a definitive answer to that question. I do think, though, that this is one of those instances where I put myself in the shoes of the fans of the other team and think, man, they must feel worse about this loss than I feel good about the win. The feeling from thos win is one...

19-16 - Rangers rally to claim series from Royals with 3-2 win in extras

Embarrassment successfully avoided

The Texas Rangers scored three runs while the Kansas City Royals scored two runs in 10 innings.

Nothing encapsulates where the Rangers have been at over the last month or so quite like following up a 15-run outburst last night by getting two-hit by an emergency starter with a near-6 ERA in Triple-A ball through five innings.

It took until the eighth inning before the Rangers got their act together when they then plated...
