Well, I have to bag the Pre-Season... And I have to kind of bag history. Today, we have Steve Trachsel against Kevin Millwood. Millwood has done everything right. And he is 0-2. I don't know what is going on, but I think I would prefer him out there over Gabbard in the 1st Game. Trachsel pitched 5.2 innings on his way toward a victory in his only start this year.
Trachsel won against Seattle, which should be noted, but has a not so great career against the Rangers. He's thrown 21.2 innings in four career starts and has given up 29 hits and 21 runs, but only 17 runs are earned. He also gave up 5 homeruns and 9 walks. His ERA against the Rangers is a cutsy-wootsy 7.06... that's too funny. Cutsy-wootsy... what in the world of baseball is that? Hopefully that continues the "HEX" on Trachsel.
The Mill Man has pitched well against Baltimore over the last three years. In fact, he is 5-1 over that stretch while posting a 2.09 ERA. Baltimore has hit a dismal .204 against him. He has averaged over 7 innings against The O-NOs. Look for Millwood to continue his success.
Now, the current Ranger hitters, as a whole, bat .179 against Trachsel. That's 10-56 (2 HRs) and eight RBIs. Up to discovering that, I was giving the Rangers the "IT'S GOOD!", however, I am not all too sure right now.

The Queen has said the Rangers are going to loose this game. But what does a quarter know anyway... I guess that is a quarter. It does say 25 cents on it... that DOES make a quarter. Anyway, I am going to go against the Queeney Quarter and sayeth thateth theth Rangerethes areth going to wineth... Forecast: Rangers win the header of the double dipper: 3-1.
