The 1-5 Rangers

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.
