Tuesday Mourning Texas Rangers Update

The bad news: The 2013 season is over.

The good news: The Lance Berkman era is over.

Here are some links that I am too bummed to read:

Todd Wills - Rapid Reaction: Rays 5, Rangers 2

T.R. Sullivan - Rangers run out of steam in tiebreaker loss to Rays

Jeff Wilson - Rangers season ends with 5-2 loss to Tampa Bay

Evan Grant - The lone bright spot for Rangers came from their starting pitcher

Anthony Andro - Texas run ends as Rays deny Rangers playoff bid

Gil LeBreton - Once object of Rangers' desire, Price ruins postseason dreams

David Schoenfield - Simple analysis: Price and Longoria good

Master Tesfatsion - Perez already looking forward to next season

Drew Davison - Nelson Cruz receives a warm reception but doesn't deliver for the Rangers

Jean-Jacques Taylor - No promised land for Cruz, Rangers

Tim Cowlishaw - Why the Rangers missed the playoffs: GM, play-style failures

Sullivan - Washington: 'We have to make adjustments'

Richard Durrett - Don't blame Washington for team's failures

Matt Mosley - Rangers' season lost during dreadful September, again

Kevin Sherrington - Another September, another sickening exit for Rangers

Sullivan's Notebook - Injured Rangers pitcher Lewis throws out first pitch

I did read this one: Grantland's Bryan Curtis' The Riddle of Ron Washington

If Texas doesn't go deep in the postseason, I'm guessing Wash will be to the Rangers what Avery Johnson was to the Dallas Mavericks. He'll be the guy who took them further than they ever got, but won't ever get to take 'em all the way.
