Why would you rank the Rangers over the Angels, defense? I know their offense is good, but their pitching is atrocious and that park won't be kind for them. The Angels have an above average offense by a bit and a pitching staff to boot. Sure they're a bit injured, but even their backups are going to likely do better than the Rangers pitching staff.
