Schwarber had a rough start last season, I even remember some comments about benching him when he was well below the Mendoza Line for a long time, nice to see him finally get a hit in game 3. Hopefully he takes off from here.

Tough start to the 2023 season. Rangers figured to be among the top AL teams this season, but as my secondary team, I have seen too many disappointing Ranger collapses. Maybe this will be the year they have that great year. A solid manager does help in many ways. That said, I am not giving up on Thomson and the Phillies.

Sure would be great to win a couple in NYC early this coming week.

The Phillies had a slew of extra base hits in Texas. Schwarber hit some deep fly balls for outs. Falter gave them a pretty decent start. I am confident that Nola and Wheeler will have many solid starts coming up. Good to see Soto with a clean inning. This team is much better than 0-3.
