Have the Texas Rangers turned things around or just hit a little hot streak?

A little bit of both

Choo starting to find his swing

Andrus hitting the ball much better

Most of the lineup isn't hitting under .200 anymore like they did for all of April

Colby Lewis back to 2011 form

Blanks has been a nice addition

Wandy Rodriguez has pitched well since being added

I think this team with a healthy Darvish/Holland could have contended. Darvish-Holland-Gallardo-Lewis-Martinez would be a good rotation.

Still not sure if this team will have enough offensively, the bullpen still sucks, and the Detweiler spot in the rotation is a black hole.

Bad bullpen is what will keep this team down.

I say between 74-79 wins.

I'd say it's just a little hot streak, random variation that is typical of baseball. That is still a bad roster. Looking over last year's schedule, I found a stretch where they won 9 of 10 and another where they won 8 of 10 and that team was terrible. I'd bet on them finishing last in the west again this year.

A little of both. The team wasn't nearly as bad as it played in April, as that would make them the Cleveland Spiders. No team is gonna hit 200 for the year.

The team is pitching out of its mind right now, and that will cool down some. But it's not like there is nothing in the lineup: the middle of their order is as good as any team in baseball (though the back of their order is among the worst). This is just a correction of the team playing worse than it was in April and now probably better than it is in May, balancing out to an "honest" record slightly below 500.

I'm waiting to see what happens when and if Josh gets into the clubhouse.

Despite being terrible the Rangers have a tight clubhouse (I think Elvis and his positive attitude have a lot to do with this, even if Beltre is trying to kill him for touching his head). Will Josh and the constant drama he brings destroy this?
