The beginning of the season has been quite disappointing for the Texas Rangers, as they currently have a losing record.

Even though they missed the playoffs the previous year, the Rangers entered the 2025 season anticipating a better performance.

Injuries were a major storyline for the team last season, and that has unfortunately been the case once again.

Despite the team struggling, there have been some bright spots for the organization, most of which have been in the

starting rotation

This unit has performed admirably, yet it also

not getting the support

It requires from the offense.

When examining the batting order, several well-known players can be found throughout the lineup. Nonetheless, due to some players missing games, this unit has not been fully intact much of this season.

Could Things Improve for Texas on Offense?


Tim Kelly from Bleacher Report

recently wrote about the offense for the Rangers’ struggles, but that there is reason to believe they will turn it around.

“The good news for the Rangers is they have enough talent to believe their offense is going to come around, at which point they could still prove to be a dangerous team.”

Luckily, despite the unit not performing well so far, much of that can be attributed to injuries.

The absence of Corey Seager significantly affected the team’s performance, as evidenced by the noticeable downturn following his departure. This season, the skilled infielder has been impressive at bat, maintaining a slash line of .281/.330/.438 along with hitting four home runs and driving in nine RBIs across 25 games.

While there are a lot of veterans in the lineup, there are some young players the franchise has high hopes for, one of which being Wyatt Langford.

The former first-round pick is performing well and has been arguably the best hitter on the team. So far, he has slashed .279/.353/.500 with six home runs and 14 RBI.

Furthermore, while there are some bright spots, there has also been some negatives as well, most notably their two offseason acquisitions.

Both Joc Pederson and Jake Burger have not gotten off to good starts with the Rangers. The ineffectiveness from Burger recently resulted in the team sending him to the minors for a reset, which they hope will help turn things around.

However, despite their ineffectiveness, both players are proven to be very good hitters in Majors. With the sample size still being small there is reason to believe that they can help turn things around too.

With the pitching staff looking very good, if the lineup can get going, there is still reason to believe that this team can be a contender in the AL.
