One question around camp this spring was could
Ian Kinsler produce for a full season like he
did last season. Kinsler smacked 20 home runs and drove in 61 last season while playing in 130 games for the club. This year Kinsler celebrated his first All Star selection as one of four Rangers to make the trip to New York. Entering Sunday Kinsler was hitting a robust .330/.390/.537 with 14 ...
It’s All-Star week, so lets take a look
at this years’ American League Roto All-Stars…. It’s a
rite of summer, every year we fans get to vote for who we want to see in the All-Star game. Some of us punch the little holes out on a ballot card for each player on our favorite team, while other fans vote for which player they believe to be the best at his position. And then some of us think ...

Cutting through the fat to see who, from
a quartet of exciting All-Stars, truly deserves to be
called the Texas Rangers' first-half MVP.
A frightfully close 12-11 victory over the Chicago
White Sox precedes the departure of four Texas Rangers
- all bound for Major League Baseball's 2008 All-Star festivities.
*Hint* Josh Hamilton isn't just a Home Run
Derby Wonder!
Cubs fans showed their support for their own
players by voting in 3 starters and ended up
with 8 total players on the roster. But was that the smartest thing to do if they want the NL (and hopefully the Cubs) to have home-field advantage in the World Series? Our writer has an interesting take on the voting process...
The top task the past two days for
Milton Bradley, Ian Kinsler and Michael Young has been
answering questions about Texas Rangers teammate Josh Hamilton.
Yeah, the AL dominates in interleague play, but
the NL has the best batters.
Thanks in large part to an offense that
is both tops in the American League in runs
scored (538) and OPS (.816), the Texas Rangers are making the AL West race a little interesting currently sporting a 50-46 record, sitting 7.5 games back of the Los ...

The Texas Rangers have the best offense in
baseball, and outfielder Milton Bradley has been a big
reason for it. Bradley has been having a fantastic season with the Rangers, but for the most part he's been overshadowed by the play (and story) of Josh ...

Every year around the trade deadline, Milton Bradley
knows that his name will come up. This season
is no different, especially with Bradley having a career year.
With all of these excellent two baggers out
there, the one guy that seems to be lost
in the shuffle is the best second baseman in the game and right now, is in the argument for the best player over the first half of the season. Ian Kinsler is ridiculous and is having a better first half than the studly Chase Utley.
Our Win Shares are now updated through yesterday's
games (July 10) . Ian Kinsler now leads the
majors with 24 Win Shares and is tied with Lance Berkman for the major league lead in WSAB at 16. In fact, Kinsler has been the majors' best players over the last 16 days (or, since I last updated Win Shares) with six WSAB. The following players recorded five WSAB in that same time: J.J. Hardy , ...
AL MVP — Ian Kinsler, Rangers First, a
few quick words on MVP criteria. The imbecilic idea
that the MVP must come from a contending team is based on neither common sense nor the official ballot instructions given to voters. The only objective ...
One of the five players acquired by the
Texas Rangers in the blockbuster July 2007 Mark Teixeira
trade, 22-year-old southpaw Matt Harrison left his mark on the first-place Angels on Tuesday night.
Why you need to sell Daisuke Matsuzaka right
now….. THREE UP/THREE DOWN Hitters Aubrey Huff, 1B/DH—BAL (UP)
Very quietly Aubrey Huff is having a terrific season. As late as June 8th, Huff was hitting just .239, but still did have nine home runs. Since that date, Huff has hit .387 with eight home runs and 23 RBI. This gives him a .281 batting average with 17 home runs and 54 ...
Time once again for another "Ask Sports Me".
OK, I have put more thought and research into
this, and I would like to look at this again. I was asked why Ian Kinsler is not ridiculed for being a butcher at 2nd base like Soriano was. Here is the ...
