His name was good luck?I had purged this from my memory. Like why was he even on the roster?
Feel the same way.I am pretty happy no matter who wins from this point.
Hopefully he keeps being fun. I'm a big fanI wonder what Evan Carter will sound like when his voice changes
Montgomery was the get of the deadline the way he's really turned it on. And it's a bit of Yankee schadenfreude as Cashman found him expendable while Frankie Montas contributed zero, and Severino blew up this year.I’m pretty sure Seager was mocked for going to the rangers (perhaps even by me). Guess that worked out. Deadlines deal don’t always have a huge impact- but seems like they did with this ranger team.
Philly isn't THAT much better than Houston, and they have bullpen issues of their own.The Rangers weakness is the bullpen. They can survive it against an offense like Arizona but I don’t know about Philly.
They also only have half a rotation right now. And their rookies seem to be hitting a wall, although that reversed a bit tonight.The Rangers weakness is the bullpen. They can survive it against an offense like Arizona but I don’t know about Philly.
Care to elaborate about why you are mixed on the Rangers? Chapman?I'm personally mixed (like and dislike) the Rangers, but I'm SOOOO happy for them!
i was just looking at Gagne’s stats recently and he had a 3.03 FIP for the Sox. 0.5 HR, 4.3 BB, 10.6 K. A .439 BABIP!I had purged this from my memory. Like why was he even on the roster?
Rangers vs Phillies would be heart attack bullpen central.The Rangers weakness is the bullpen. They can survive it against an offense like Arizona but I don’t know about Philly.
And it STILL makes me cringeGod, that 2011 Series was an absolute classic.
I like me some YED, and while everything else pales in comparison, I will admit that AED is growing on me.AED. Party responsibly!
Schwarber will hit at least one 475 feet off of Declerc.The Rangers weakness is the bullpen. They can survive it against an offense like Arizona but I don’t know about Philly.
Also you probably don't want to trade your 1.02 WHIP, 12+K/9IP closer when you're in the WC race (with 3 WC)The Mariners are my second-favorite team. I hope their front office is watching the Rangers' success and seeing how spending big in the offseason can be beneficial. Not always of course, but still.
Oh man, that was one of the worst trade decisions I ever saw. It definitely came back to bite them.Also you probably don't want to trade your 1.02 WHIP, 12+K/9IP closer when you're in the WC race (with 3 WC)
Schwarber would hit the ball so hard that the seams would come apartheid.Schwarber will hit at least one 475 feet off of Declerc.
No politics.Schwarber would hit the ball so hard that the seams would come apartheid.
The fabled 83-win 2006 Cardinals went 38-41 in the second half of their schedule. And going even farther back into their schedule, they actually peaked at 42-26 in mid-June, after which point they went 41-52. Their record after 8/31 was 12-17. Eight AL teams had more wins, and twelve MLB teams had more wins.Just read a stat and confirmed it - the Rangers went 50-52 in their last 102 games of the season.
We've had WC darlings recently like the 2019 Nats and 2022 Phils that started slow but were arguably the best team in baseball the 2nd half (also the 2021 Braves) that explained some of it. Completely the opposite with this group.
Baseball gods, what are you doing?
Without saying too much, Rangers were the best of the AL once they got rid of Tampa by my metrics...Just read a stat and confirmed it - the Rangers went 50-52 in their last 102 games of the season.

AED is shockingI like me some YED, and while everything else pales in comparison, I will admit that AED is growing on me.
