Texas Rangers Series Preview: Lots of money without the results yet

It’s been a tough go for the Royals this season, but the Rangers spent half a billion dollars on their middle infield this winter and they’ve scored three runs or fewer in 16 of their 27 games. You have to assume at some point that Corey Seager and Marcus Semien are going to start hitting, but until then, it feels like a tough way to spend that kind of money. The best bats on the team have been guys who are mostly coming off the bench while their big free agent acquisitions - Seager, Semien and Kole Calhoun - have a 92, 45 and 25 wRC+ respectively.
