The Texas Rangers have all of two players that are considered starters with an OPS+ over seventy this season. Shin-Soo Choo has an OPS+ of 23, a number that Rafael Belliard would be embarrassed by, and Belliard posted an OPS+ of two (yes, two) in 1996. Needless to say, they cannot afford to lose either of their productive players for any length of time.
However, that is exactly what the injury plagued Rangers are facing now that Mitch Moreland is going to undergo surgery to have the bone spurs removed from his left elbow.
