BP: Kiss'Em Goodbye -- Texas Rangers

1
Best-case scenario ZiPS projection: 97-65 A lot went right for the Rangers in 2011, but it's hardly surprising that a lot goes right for a team that gets to the World Series. The 2011 team is nearly the upside for this edition of the Rangers, though it'll be easier to hit these numbers if they can retain Wilson. The Rangers have some good prospects and the ability to replace some pitchers, but Wilson is very hard to replace. Even if they do lose Wilson, the Rangers can make up for at least some of it by squeezing more offense out of first and a relief corps that's more dependable for the season.
