The 2023 MLB season continues to race along, and the Texas Rangers continue to play really good baseball.
Texas has played 49 games so far this season, so they are a little bit (5 games, to be exact) shy of the one-third mark. Memorial Day, which is the unofficial date for the end of the beginning of the season and the point where we start taking events that have occurred to that point seriously, is just four days away.
And the Rangers continue to sit atop the A.L. West standings. They are 31-18, three games up on the hated Astros of Houston, four games up on the Angels of either Los Angeles or Anaheim (depending on your mood), and six games up on the Mariners of Seattle.
