Texas Rangers 2003 Fantasy Baseball Outlook Considering the talent the Rangers could get in return and their lack of front-line starters, the latter is likely at some point this season, which could allow Blalock to blossom into the all-tool talent he is proclaimed to be. Given the Rangers potent offense and dismal rotation, he may not see as many opportunities in 2003, but the ones he does will most likely turn into saves. While the Rangers possess one of the league's weakest rotations, Hart has made great strides in piecing together a solid bullpen anchored by their first true closer since John Wetteland. www.fantasysportsrealm.com /reports/alwest/rangers.htm   (594 words)

One of the things I like doing after the season is re-reading the 2004 Baseball Prospectus Annual that comes out before the season begins, and to look at what was predicted based on what just happened. The Mariners were coming off a 93-win season with their older players, the Orioles won 78 games while the Blue Jays was mired in the basement of the East with just 67 wins. baseballsavant.blogspot.com   (194 words)
