Wilson has responded to Lance Berkman's comments about the team. Berkman said he felt Texas would be an average team this season and that some of their pitchers overachieved in 2010. "I think it's funny. He was contemplating retirement, so I'm not going to take anything too seriously. I'm not going to get offended by anything he says," Wilson said. "If that's a representative idea of what people around the league think, that's better for us because they're going to do the same thing and they're going to not take us seriously. If we end up stomping through the playoffs again, everyone will be like, 'Wow, what a bummer.'

Berkman said he felt the Rangers would have "an average team" in 2011 and had some pitchers that "pitched better than their talent level" in 2010. "I felt like if they didn't re-sign Cliff Lee that they were going to be an average team and I feel that's probably what's going to end up happening," Berkman said. "It's all about your pitching. I feel like last year was one of those special years where you kind of catch lightning in a bottle and they got hot and they had some guys that I felt like were pitching better than their talent level and consequently they had a great year."

Levine made his comments in response to Greenberg's opinion that Texas kept the chase for Cliff Lee going long enough for Philadelphia to sneak in and take Lee from New York. "I think Chuck is delusional," Levine said. "He has been running the Rangers for a few minutes and seems to believe he's mastered what everyone else is thinking. I think he should let Cliff Lee speak for himself. I'll be impressed when he demonstrates he can keep the Rangers off welfare. What I mean is make them not be a revenue-sharing recipient for three years in a row, without taking financing from baseball or advance money from television networks. Then I'll be impressed."
