The Rangers are, thankfully, home for the weekend.
Where they will be playing the number one team in baseball right now, the Tampa Bay Rays. (And spoiler alert? The final two games of the five-game home stand is the number two team in baseball, the San Francisco Giants.)
The Rays currently have a +67 run differential while the Rangers are at a -42. More bad news? Tampa Bay is actually better on the road than they are at home 20-9 on the road while they’re 15-13 at home. All this to say, they are not the same team that lost a four game series against Texas back in April.
