If you had told many fans prior to the season that 14 games in, the Texas Rangers would be sitting at .500 and just half a game back of the 3rd place in the division, most would’ve taken it. However, for some reason, 7-7 still feels like a letdown perhaps because they easily could be a few games over that .500 mark.
The offense for the Rangers this season has been nothing short of terrific sitting in the top half of nearly every offensive category in the AL despite playing the second-fewest games to this point. While the offense isn’t going to light up batting averages or on-base percentage, the club has found a knack for delivering big hits while trailing late in games.
