It is one of my favorite days of the year. Actually, it is my favorite day of the year. Baseball is back, and soon to follow is the warm weather that I have dearly missed for the winter. The 1st game everyone starts tied for 1st, nothing has gone wrong and we can all hope that this year our boys will come through. For the time being I will forget all the reasons why the Rangers will probably not be good and look to seeing Josh Hamilton in his second full season, seeing Chris Davis for a full year, seeing this defensive whiz Elvis Andrus at shortshop and hoping Ian Kinsler will stay healthy for a full year. I will be interested to see Hank Blalock and how he reacts to his final year of his contract. I am going to believe that McCarthy will be healthy all year and pitch to his potential, that Matt Harrison will develop and tha Millwood and Padilla will go out throw 2oo innings. If all this happens then we can hear "The Rangers win the Pennant".
