The Texas Rangers are experiencing an offensive lull. A struggle against a dominant Tampa Bay staff last weekend was understandable, but it carrying over to a pedestrian Los Angeles staff is a head-scratcher.
Their lineup has been top-heavy for much of the year. The wily vets in Shin-Soo Choo and Elvis Andrus start things off, and up-and-comers Joey Gallo and Nomar Mazara polish the first half. The second half of the order has been a puzzle, however.
Texas has gotten very little production at the plate from their catchers, whether it be Jeff Mathis, Isiah Kiner-Falefa or Tim Federowicz.
