Not impressed. They've each played in more postseason games (61) than the total number of postseason games in Rangers history (52).

I'm very upset with my tv provider. I tried to search for the Rangers playoff game last night. Couldn't find it anywhere, but they referred me to ESPN Classic and the History Channel.

The audacity of DirectTV

I'm so very confused. The Arlington Globe Life Wind Tunnel MultiUse Arena is being used for baseball and people are watching baseball there but the Rangers aren't playing.

It's either 2020 or normal Rangers playoff baseball.

Who is responsible for the idiocy of artificial turf in Globe Life? Such an abomination.

A lot of chest beating going on in here... guess that's understandable when you totally redeemed yourself on this little hot streak. Totally showed the baseball world you don't need to cheat to finish with a total overall record of... *checks note* 1 game above .500...

Lmao they kept wondering why they weren't getting clutch hits as if it were rocket surgery or something. Gee, I wonder why.... Oh we. They have hats from several years ago now that nobody outside of Houston sees as legitimate!

No, we didn't.... we finished regular season 29-31. Then won 2 against MIN. Then 3-1 against Oakland. Then 3-4 against Tampa.

That's 37-36

The correct answer is 10 years. The 2020 Astros achieved more in the postseason that little Arlington did the last 9 years. The conversation ends there. You can't compare.

4 straight ALCS appearances. Pretty normal, probably... right?

Oh wait... one of 5 teams ever to accomplish the feat. Weird.

Anywho, have fun watching another team win the World Series in your stadium that you probably haven't been to, in a year that you definitely were nowhere near even sniffing the playoffs!

Rangers had the same change at that "COVID pity spot" and didn't get it.

You know what makes it worse?

I looked at their threads over the summer and most of their fans were too stupid to realize that they needed the Covid pity spot. The vast majority of Astros fans were raging mad that the playoffs were expanded because it would make the championship harder to get.

Dumb azz arrogance at its finest.

So what I'm hearing is the bar was really, really low to get into the playoffs... am I doing this right??

29-31 in a 60-game, pandemic-shortened season. No business being in the postseason, but luckily got hot once there. Gotta love how the Rays got their hopes up the last four games, only to crush them with one of their own (Morton) in the end. Couldn't have happened to a classier organization, the cheating Asstros, who still haven't won anything without the help of trashcans. Such arrogance from their core players, serves them right!

And I'm not even a Rangers fan.

Lol.

Let me paint the picture for you "hehe, so you're saying the bar was that low huh?" folks... literally not one Rangers fan or 3rd party observer in here is claiming Rangers superiority this year. Anyone can look at the records and see it was a rough year for the Rangers. (Still managed to split the season series with a team that won a LEGENDARY, MIND BENDING, INCREDIBLE entire 8 baseball games in the postseason.)

No, what we're all laughing at is your delusional clutching to your tainted title* and the "cheating didn't help that much" mantra when your offense looked like a completely different team the season after they were caught. When Rangers baseball is in a valley, at least y'all are entertaining for us.

Lot of butt hurt Arlingtonians are all of a sudden breathing a lot easier. If those bad cheaters had gone to the WS playing on the shiny new plastic and coconut multi purpose field can you imagine the heads that would have exploded. Fortunately your long summer nightmare is over and you can rest easier.

I love how all the haters come running back to this thread as soon as they see the stros lose game 7. I really was worried for you guys. Welcome back.

Also, love all the "we are the rangers so we expect to suck, and you guys are good but not as good as you pretend to be."

Lol. Dead silence on this thread while the Astros ran off three in a row to tie the series.

They finally lose in game seven and everybody comes out of the woodworks to "check back in on the thread" as if they hadn't been keeping up and dealing with high blood pressure fearing they might come back and take the series after being down 0-3.

Just wanted to confuse the Rangers fans for a little while now that they are uppity again. This is a World Series champion pennant. I know, something rarely seen by y'all unless you travel to away games. Damn sure can't find one in mimic maid park unless on an Astros fans cap.

And I'm not even a Rangers fan.
The rules that everyone agreed to at the beginning of the season said the top two teams in each division make the playoffs. The Astros knew they weren't going to finish behind the Angels, Rangers or Mariners (even in a worst case scenario), so they threw their rookie pitchers in high leverage spots. It was painful to watch and led to a handful of losses, but it paid big dividends in the playoffs.

Had the playoff rules been the same as a normal season, or there was a wrinkle to the rules that said you have to be .500 or better to earn a spot, the Astros would have re-shuffled their pitching staff to do so. They just wouldn't have been able lean on guys like Taylor, Javier and Paredes (not to mention Framber and Urquidy) in the playoffs.

If anything, the Astros deserve alot of credit for perfectly optimizing the development of their young pitching and winning enough games to get into the playoffs. The scary thing for the rest of the league is that this was basically a rebuilding year. No Verlander. No Yordan. Lost Cole and basically entire bullpen. Tons of innings from rookie pitchers. Offense took a while to heat up. And they STILL came within a game of the World Series. Must be hurtful for you.
