Regarding the Rangers, who will receive a reminder this week of the organization’s ongoing culture change.
1. Not only five days between games, but five days without a game leading into a swing through Florida that will feature matches in Sunrise on Saturday and in Tampa on Monday.
In the good old days — all the way back to, say, 2017-18 — the Rangers likely would have embarked for the sun and surf no later than Wednesday. Probably would have been a couple of practices. But there’d have been beach time, too. No question.
Now, Rye Beach at the other end of 287 is about as close as they’ll come this week.
