Thank goodness for Elvis Andrus.

That’s what we should keep telling ourselves as the Texas Rangers try to dig themselves out of this eight-game hole in the American League West. With the offense riding peaks and valleys (mostly valleys) so far this season, Andrus has been one of the few constants. Plus, he continues to produce clutch hits.

Nick Martinez further proof that the Texas Rangers' rotation is keeping them afloat

Nick Martinez further proof that Rangers rotation keeping them afloat https://wp.me/p6u00J-b7t

You may have been surprised that the Texas Rangers called up Nick Martinez to take A.J. Griffin’s spot in the rotation Saturday night. After all, a 14-22 career record in the majors doesn’t exactly get the juices flowing.

You can also be excused for being totally stunned that Martinez carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning of the Rangers’ 2-1 win over Kansas City.

Elvis Andrus stole the…

I remember being intrigued when the Neil Fest show popped up on the Granada Theater calendar.

The Big 12 had 10 players choose to leave early for the NFL. The list, plus some analysis of their draft chances, follows.
