Opener Versus New Division Mates Astros Goes Badly, Rangers Lose 8-2
Glass Half Empty / Afternoon Cloud: Question: How many games are the Rangers going win when they allow 8 runs by their opponent (Matt Harrison gave up 5 ER's)? Answer: Not many, if their offense is as bad as it was tonight and when Kins, Elvis and Beltre go 0-fer.
Glass Half Full / Silver Lining: Berkman got a couple of hits (but man, he is a liability on the basepads, he is slower than slow).
Thoughts / Observations / Sidenotes: During the broadcast, someone said that a source said that Nolan Ryan was likely to be leaving the organization at some point.
The Rangers trail the Astros in the division, and I know it's just 1 game but, ouch.
