DETROIT\u00a0\u2014 Is it way too early to consider postseason odds? Absolutely, but for the sake of perspective, let\u2019s take a gander anyway.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n
\n

The Rangers have a 48.9% chance to make the playoffs, per FanGraphs, which is the fifth-best in the American League. It\u2019s reflective of the fact that their schedule has been especially hard to start the season<\/a> and, in the AL, there haven\u2019t been too many teams who\u2019ve run away with anything. The Rangers are 16-18<\/a>, second in the AL West, but locked into a three-way tie for the third wild card spot.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Is it something to keep in mind as we dive into these offensive issues?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Here are five things we learned about the Rangers last week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Let\u2019s check back in with the offense<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

We pontificated last week<\/a> as to whether the offense had meaningfully improved after last year\u2019s nosedive. The answer we arrived upon (\u201ctechnically yes\u201d) wasn\u2019t incorrect at the time, but after another week in which offensive charts pointed downward, it\u2019s become harder to discern a difference between the past and the present.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The .686 OPS that the Rangers have posted through Sunday\u2019s loss<\/a> is three percentage points better than the .683 OPS that they posted last season, and to expand further, it\u2019s one percentage point better than the .685 OPS that they posted two years ago when they also missed the playoffs. It\u2019s the fifth-worst in baseball this season. The four teams ranked below them\u00a0\u2014 the Philadelphia Phillies, the Boston Red Sox, the San Francisco Giants and the New York Mets\u00a0\u2014 have built a modern Mount\u00a0Rushmore of disarray in just over a month\u2019s worth of games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\n

In the last two weeks, a stretch in which the Rangers have won all of five games, their .625 OPS is the second-worst in baseball. Only the Giants, who\u2019ve lost six consecutive games, three of which were against the also-woeful Phillies, have been worse in that span.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is the\u00a0company the Rangers keep.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Or, should we say, this is the company the Rangers have kept.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Okay, but, what\u2019s the biggest issue with the offense?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Look, there\u2019s a manifesto to be written there, but there\u2019s at least one way to meaningfully improve the offense if a certain facet of it is bandaged up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

\n

The Rangers have to hit with runners in scoring position.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Even simpler, they need to strike out less with runners in scoring position, because at least a ball batted into play puts some amount of pressure on an opponent\u2019s defense. The Rangers have hit .238 with runners in scoring position in the last two weeks, a below-average clip, but their strikeout figures in those spots stand out more. Their 80 strikeouts with runners at second or third base are the fourth-most in the league. Their 26% strikeout rate in those situations is the second-highest and a 2% increase over their strikeout rate in all situations combined. The Rangers finished 0 for 5 with runners in scoring position in Sunday\u2019s loss and struck out three times.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThere\u2019s definitely some balls that we\u2019ve hit hard at guys,\u201d first baseman Jake Burger said. \u201cThat\u2019s baseball. I think, on the flip side, you don\u2019t see those fall, and we\u2019re kind of aware that we need to score those runs, and as an offense it\u2019s easy to press in those situations. That\u2019s where I think the swing and miss comes in.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Sorry, we have more to say about the offense, then we\u2019re done<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

The lineup cannot flourish as it\u2019s designed to if its best hitter is not, well, its best hitter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Shortstop Corey Seager, off to one of the worst starts in his decorated career<\/a>, has not been its best hitter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Seager\u2019s .213 average is the lowest he\u2019s ever posted through the first 33 games of any season. His .725 OPS is the fourth-worst, and while it\u2019s largely propped up by his team-high six home runs, which can\u2019t be overlooked, it\u2019s more than 140 points below his career average. His 37 strikeouts are the second-most on the team behind only Burger and nearly half of them have come with a runner on base ahead of him. It\u2019s been especially noticeable given the fact that the club\u2019s two best offensive performers\u00a0\u2014 right fielder Brandon\u00a0Nimmo and third baseman Josh Jung\u00a0\u2014 hit in front of and behind him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Nimmo led Sunday\u2019s game off with a single, but two at-bats later, Seager chased a sweeper out of the zone for a strikeout, and in the at-bat after that, Jung continued his scorcher with a single of his own. Had Seager hit the ball into play, or at least advanced Nimmo to second base, a run likely would\u2019ve scored on Jung\u2019s single and changed the complexion of Sunday\u2019s game early.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Seager\u2019s track record buys him grace, and though it\u2019s under a larger spotlight given the time of year and the collective struggles of the offense, he\u2019s had 166 (no, seriously, 166) 33-game stretches in which he\u2019s posted a .725 OPS or worse as a big leaguer. It even happened three seasons ago, when the Rangers won a World Series, and when Seager finished as the American League MVP runner-up. The 32-year-old has the ability to outperform his slumps and has the support of his coaches, teammates and front office to do so.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It\u2019d just certainly help if it happened sooner rather than later.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Ezequiel Duran has shined wherever needed defensively<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Duran, now the team\u2019s go-to utility infielder, has started five career games in right field.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He\u2019s recorded an outfield assist in three of them.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

His cannon of an arm helps, as it did in Saturday\u2019s loss when he threw out Tigers second baseman\u00a0Gleyber Torres at home plate to preserve what was then a tied score in the bottom of the first inning, but his work ethic does, too, if you ask the man who fills out the lineup card each day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cHow good you are at defense is solely based, in my opinion, on makeup and character,\u201d Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said. \u201cIf you want to get better at defense, you work at it, and he works and works and works. He works early, he works in batting practice, the whole deal. It\u2019s not surprising to me that he plays everywhere so well.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Duran\u2019s 0.4 WAR accumulated, per FanGraphs, is the fifth-best on the team. His .747 OPS (the third-best behind Jung and\u00a0Nimmo) boosts that, but plays like Saturday\u2019s throw or Friday\u2019s impressive catch<\/a> help, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The bullpen continues to surprise<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
\n

The Rangers did not spend a boatload on their bullpen this winter, and only weeks into the season, the two arms that they believed could be their highest-leverage weapons<\/a> landed on the injured list. So naturally, the bullpen has been their greatest strength through a month-plus of games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The relief staff\u2019s 2.74 ERA is the best in baseball by a considerable margin, their 22 holds are near the top-third leaguewide and their nine saves are better than league average. This is despite the fact that their pseudo closer (left-hander Jacob Latz<\/a>) was nearly their fifth starter, their de facto setup man (right-hander Jakob Junis) was expected to operate as a bridge arm, their second-most productive reliever from a value standpoint (left-hander Tyler Alexander) barely throws 90 mph and a pair of unheralded rookies (right-handers Peyton Gray and Gavin Collyer) have yet to allow a run in their big league careers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe pitching staff has done a really good job at putting them in the right spots to succeed,\u201d Schumaker said. \u201cI\u2019ve said this before, but, guys surprise you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
