A sweep at the hands of the Rays and a split with the Orioles seemed to have some fans concerned.
↵Well, sure, that’s not a fun stretch, but now the Rangers are playing yet another elite team. And they’ve now guaranteed at least a split in the series to open up. And the first game was almost a no-hitter. Just about every facet of the team has looked good in the last two games.
↵Oh, and Nelson Cruz will be back after the next series and Ian Kinsler is on the way. So this team that has just outscored a playoff-caliber opponent by five runs in the first two games is going to be even better soon.
↵And the Rangers are also now just half a game back of homefield in the first round. To those of you who need to be told: stop panicking, they’ve got this.
