KEY GAME INFORMATION
TEXAS: 2016: 95-67, first place
Manager: Jeff Banister (third season)
Who's new? 1B Mike Napoli, 1B James Loney, INF Will Middlebrooks, RHP Andrew Cashner, RHP Tyson Ross, RHP Mike Hauschild
Who's gone? 1B Mitch Moreland, INF/OF Ian Desmond, OF/DH Carlos Beltran, RHP Derek Holland, RHP Colby Lewis, RHP Shawn Tolleson, RHP Lucas Harrell
Projected lineup: CF Carlos Gomez (.231, 13 HR, 53 RBI, 18 SB in 118 games with Astros and Rangers), DH Shin-Soo Choo (.242, 7, 17, 6 in 48 games), 3B Adrian Beltre (.300, 32, 104), 1B Mike Napoli (.239, 34, 101 with Indians), 2B Rougned Odor (.271, 33, 88, 14 SB), C Jonathan Lucroy (.292, 24, 81 with Brewers and Rangers), RF Nomar Mazara (.266, 20, 64), SS Elvis Andrus (.302, 8, 69, 24 SB), LF Jurickson Profar (.239, 5, 20) or Ryan Rua (.258, 8, 22, 9 SB)
Rotation: LH Cole Hamels (15-5, 3.32 ERA), RH Yu Darvish (7-5, 3.42 in 17 games), LH Martin Perez (10-11, 4.39), RH A.J. Griffin (7-4, 5.07), RH Andrew Cashner (5-11, 5.25 with Padres and Marlins)
Key relievers: RH Sam Dyson (3-2, 2.43, 38/43 SV), RH Matt Bush (7-2, 2.48), RH Jeremy Jeffress (27/28 SV with Brewers and Rangers), RH Tony Barnette (7-3, 2.09), LH Alex Claudio (4-1, 2.79), RH Keone Kela (5-1, 6.09)
Hot spots: Designated hitter and left field. Choo, Napoli and Joey Gallo are all candidates to DH. Gallo, a perennial prospect with prodigious power, can make it interesting by seizing his first-ever Opening Day roster spot. Otherwise Napoli (a first baseman) and Choo (an outfielder) can switch off as needed. Moving Desmond to the outfield was successful enough last year that the Rangers are taking a similar approach with Profar. The oft-injured 24-year-old will try to break camp as a left fielder, platooning with Rua.
Outlook: Coming off back-to-back division titles, the Rangers begin 2017 with a weakened farm system and the footsteps of the Astros and Mariners passing them by ' or at least catching up. There's still a lot to like here. Napoli was a huge bargain on a $6 million contract following his 34-homer season in Cleveland. He'll join Beltre and Odor to form a dangerous middle of the order. Darvish is entering his first full season back from Tommy John surgery, and he and catcher Lucroy are entering their long-awaited walk years. This isn't the deepest roster in the AL but it's capable of winning another division title if its stars can avoid the disabled list.
TORONTO: 2016: 89-73, second place
Manager: John Gibbons (10th season)
Who's new? 1B/DH Kendrys Morales, C Jarrod Saltalamacchia, IF/OF Steve Pearce, IF Lourdes Gurriel, LHP J.P. Howell, RHP Joe Smith
Who's gone? 1B/DH Edwin Encarnacion, OF Michael Saunders, C Josh Thole, C Dioner Navarro, OF Junior Lake, RHP R.A. Dickey, LHP Brett Cecil, RHP Joaquin Benoit
Projected lineup: 2B Devon Travis (.300, 11 HR, 50 RBI), 3B Josh Donaldson (.284, 37, 99), RF Jose Bautista (.234, 22, 69), DH Kendrys Morales (.263, 30, 93 with Royals), SS Troy Tulowitzki (.254, 24, 79), C Russell Martin (.231, 20, 74), 1B Justin Smoak (.217, 14, 34), CF Kevin Pillar (.266, 7, 53, 14 SB), LF Ezequiel Carrera (.248, 6, 23)
Rotation: RH Marco Estrada (9-9, 3.48 ERA), LH J.A. Happ (20-4, 3.18), RH Marcus Stroman (9-10, 4.37), RH Aaron Sanchez (15-2, 3.00), LH Francisco Liriano (8-13, 4.69 with Pirates and Blue Jays)
Key relievers: RH Roberto Osuna (4-3, 2.68, 36/42 SV), RH Jason Grilli (6-4, 3.64), RH Joe Biagini (4-3, 3.06), LH J.P. Howell (1-1, 4.09 with Dodgers), RH Joe Smith (1-4, 3.82 with Angels), LH Aaron Loup (0-0, 5.02)
Hot spots: bullpen. The Blue Jays signed only a couple high-profile free agents (retaining Bautista, adding Morales) and brought in many lower-profile veterans mostly to compete for bullpen jobs. Howell and Smith, signed to low-risk deals, are all but guaranteed jobs. But what of Dominic Leone, Mat Latos, Mike Bolsinger, Lucas Harrell and Leonel Campos? Toronto seems to be crowd-sourcing its middle innings with low-risk, right-handed options. Up to a half-dozen pitchers could be competing for one or two jobs.
Outlook: The Blue Jays' roster is enviably balanced, albeit among the older ones in the league. Toronto led the AL in ERA last year. Their entire starting rotation returns, and their veteran bullpen is set up well to support second-year closer Osuna. Ironically, the youngest player in the Jays' starting lineup, 26-year-old Travis, has the biggest health concern of the bunch. He didn't appear in a spring training game until recently because of offseason knee surgery. Encarnacion, who was good for .270/30/100 every year, will be missed. The question now is whether Morales (33), Bautista (36), Tulowitzki (32) and Martin (34) are still close enough to their primes to power another playoff run.
PREVIEW
Rangers' rough road trip ends Sunday against Jays
 

TORONTO -- The Texas Rangers will be happy to get home after they play the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday afternoon in the finale of a three-game series at the Rogers Centre.

The road has not been kind to Texas. After losing 3-1 to the Blue Jays on Saturday afternoon, the Rangers dropped to 8-18 on the road this season.

After winning two of three from the Detroit Tigers to begin a nine-game trip, the Rangers have lost five straight, their longest losing streak of the season.

After the game Sunday, they will open a three-game series at home against the Tampa Bay Rays.

"We've been challenged in a lot of areas," Rangers manager Jeff Banister said. "We've got to get better, obviously, we've got to put some things together.

"When you're challenged, it doesn't feel good, it doesn't look good. Mistakes are accentuated. When you're incapable of capitalizing on some run-scoring opportunities, those get accentuated.

"We haven't been perfect, we've made some mistakes, but we've got to continue to play the game, find a way to put some runs on the board."

The Rangers (24-26) will start Andrew Cashner (1-4, 3.18 ERA), who has made 18 consecutive road starts without a win, the longest active streak in the among major-league starters.

Cashner will be trying to win on the road for the first time since Sept. 16, 2015, at Arizona when he opposes Toronto's Joe Biagini (1-2, 3.75 ERA), who will be making his fifth career major-league start.

The Rangers are 1-6 since their 10-game winning streak, the longest in the majors this season.

The Blue Jays (23-26) appear to be going in the opposite direction. They have matched their season-best five-game winning streak after beating Texas on Saturday. After going 8-17 in April, they are 15-9 in May.

Toronto also has third baseman Josh Donaldson and shortstop Troy Tulowitzki back from injury. Both played Friday but were given a planned day off Saturday. Both are expected in the lineup on Sunday.

"We're playing better baseball in the month of May," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "April wasn't a good month, you can't sugarcoat that.

"We always felt confident with the guys we had in here, and the guys who stepped up when we had injuries. Lots of things have started to fall for us.

"We weren't getting that big hit before, we weren't getting that big break. Now we're getting home runs and it looks like our old team."

The Blue Jays have hit home runs in six consecutive games, a total of 12, including a three-run homer Saturday in the fifth inning by Jose Bautista that proved to be the difference. The team has homered in 15 of its past 16 games.

Biagini has faced the Rangers twice in the regular season and is 1-0 against them, allowing three hits but no runs in 3 1/3 innings. He did not factor in the decision Tuesday in the Blue Jays' 4-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. He allowed five hits, three walks and three runs in 4 1/3 innings.

Biagini is 1-1 with a 4.15 ERA in his four career major-league starts, all of them in May. The Blue Jays are 3-1 in his starts.

Cashner has made one career start against the Blue Jays, a no-decision when he was with the San Diego Padres and allowed three earned runs in six innings at the Rogers Centre. He gave up home runs to Donaldson and Justin Smoak.

Cashner is 0-3 with a 4.43 ERA in four starts on the road this season. He has gone 0-9 with a 6.91 ERA in his past 18 road starts, including a loss Tuesday to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. In that game, he gave up six hits, four walks and five runs in five innings.
