ELVIS ANDRUS RUMORS & GOSSIP
No easy solution to Rangers' lineup woes
ARLINGTON, Texas Making a change for change's sake almost never works, but what the Rangers have been doing for six games isn't working, either.
The Rangers lost their sixth game in a row Sunday mainly because of a stagnant offense. The temptation is to shake things up, but manager Ron Washington would rather dig in and trust that things will turn around naturally.

Rangers blanked, Andrus ejected
Well, that game sucked. Honestly, that’s about all I can say about it. But I’ll try to find a few more words.
Poor Justin Grimm. He wasn’t outstanding tonight, but he was far from the worst part to watch. He had no run support whatsoever, but he stayed on the mound into the 8th inning, taking one for the team, I guess. He gave up seven runs on 10 hits, including two...

DON'T YOU DARE
Andrus infuriates Beltre by touching his head
After the Rangers defeated the Seattle Mariners last night by the score of 5-2, the players were celebrating in the middle of the field and it appears that infielder Elvis Andrus decided to have some fun teammate Adrian Beltre.

Beltre and Andrus fight over popup
It’s must be nice being able to play for the Texas Rangers, who currently have the best record in baseball (32-17). So nice that Adrian Beltre and Elvis Andrus can clown around in the infield for a routine pop up. Beltre, who is probably the best defensive third baseman in the MLB called off Andrus several time, swatting him off while Andrus was snickering, being defiant...
Elvis Andrus responds to leadoff role with five hits
ARLINGTON, Texas Elvis Andrus said all the right things about not wanting to take Ian Kinsler's spot as the Rangers' leadoff hitter. But his bat spoke even louder.
Andrus was a career-best 5-for-5 while hitting first in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Tigers.
Andrus also scored three runs, drove in two, stole two bases and was a home run shy of the cycle.
It was his second...

STINK OVER INK
Andrus out of lineup because of tattoo?
Texas Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus reportedly will miss Thursday's spring training game because a new tattoo is causing him discomfort.
Trading Elvis Andrus for any reason is just plain stupid, Best Advice Don’t Do It.
Written By, Clifford Santa Monica Trading Elvis Andrus for any reason is just plain stupid. You’re talking about a player just now entering his athletic prime who has “PERRENIAL ALL-STAR” written all over him. The Rangers, potentially, have two such players under one roof–the other being Jurickson Profar, a player who most scouts feel has what it takes to be a great player...
