Team History:
The Rangers enjoyed a dramatic turnaround in 2004 by winning 89 games and finishing just three games back in the American League West. Buck Showalter engineered the Texas renaissance and was named AL Manager of the Year. The Rangers had five All-Stars: shortstop Michael Young, third baseman Hank Blalock, second baseman Alfonso Soriano, starting pitcher Kenny Rogers and closer Francisco Cordero. First baseman Mark Teixeira and Soriano picked up Silver Slugger Awards and Rogers earned his third Gold Glove. The Rangers were in first place as late as Aug. 5, thanks largely to the dynamic offense provided by their infield and the solid work of the bullpen. Each member of the starting infield -- Teixeira, Soriano, Young and Blalock -- went past the 20-homer plateau. Texas was only the second club in Major League history to have all four starting infielders record more than 20 homers.
Season Preview:
The trio of Texas prospects had a cool nickname: DVD, in honor of John Danks, Edinson Volquez and Thomas Diamond. But with nothing but failure to show for this decade, the Rangers need experience more than potential. So Danks was swapped for a more refined young pitcher, Brandon McCarthy, an understudy in the White Sox pen last year. "He's a Jack McDowell type," says one longtime AL talent evaluator. "I don't know if he's going to be a top-of-the-rotation guy, but he can be a good pitcher on a good staff." The Rangers already have an ace in Kevin Millwood and an innings-eater in Vicente Padilla, so they should be competitive with the other AL West teams. It's the rest of the league that'll give them trouble. In early March, Eric Gagné climbed a mound and threw all of his pitches, turning over his changeup, spinning a breaking ball, and in his elbow he felt something unusual: nothing. "I'm over the hump," says Gagné, who¹s been limited to 15 IPs the past two seasons. If Gagné is back, it would be a huge boost for the Rangers, who need all the bullpen depth they can muster. Rangers fans are already tired of Kameron Loe, Bruce Chen and Jamey Wright; imagine how they'll feel in July. Enter 6-foot-4 Eric Hurley, a No. 5 starter with No. 1 stuff.
