== Five questions: Texas Rangers ==
德州游骑兵 2010 五大问
This could be the year the Rangers finally get over the hump. Of course,
prognosticators have been saying something very similar ever since 2004,
when Buck Showalter led a suddenly A-Rod-less Rangers team to an 89-73
record with a lineup that featured a quartet of under-30 infielders who
were all capable of driving in 100 runs and hitting 30 homers.
Rather than being the beginning of something special, though, it turned
out to be more just more of the same. The Rangers never developed any
pitching to go along with the offensive core, first baseman Mark Teixeira
and second baseman Alfonso Soriano were eventually traded, the league
figured out Hank Blalock and Showalter was shown the door.
今年可能是游骑兵终于要摆脱低潮大跃进的一年。当然啦~ 这句话自从2004年后，
每年季初都被预言者拿出来说一次。2004那年，总教练Showalter带领着少了A-Rod
的游骑兵打下了89胜73负的成绩。那时的游骑兵内野是四个不到30岁，却都有打出
单季30轰+100打点实力的重砲部队(详见注1.)。
注1. 2004年的游骑兵内野阵容与该季成绩。
1B Mark Teixeira (Age:24) 38HRs 118RBIs
2B Alfonso Soriano (Age:28) 28HRs 91RBIs
3B Hank Blalock (Age:23) 32HRs 110RBIs
SS Michael Young (Age:27) 22HRs 99RBIs
超强的打击
