A month ago, I looked at the Rangers' schedule and felt great: the first 7 at home against Boston and Detroit. Normally, they open in the West Coast and play their first 6 or 7 against Oakland or the Angels.
I predicted a 4-3 or even 5-2 start. In other words, you go 1-2 or 2-1 against Boston and take 3 of 4 from Detroit.
My predictions were wrong. They are 1-5 and play Detroit today. Worse than that, Kevin Millwood is 0-2. The hitters can't hit or score. Even Kevin Mench, who hit the ball all over the spring, can't hit.
Texas will get on a roll. They will win 5 or 6 in a row and even out the slow start. But I hate slow starts because they can spoil the fans' excitement.
P. S. Speaking of good starts, the Brewers are 5-0 and I'm not shocked. Milwaukee has a good young team that will be a factor in the NL Central.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - President Ronald Reagan
