What if I told you dudes a month ago that not only are we going to win the World Series, but the bullpen would be a big part of us winning it and Josh Sborz would cruise through a relatively stress free final 7 outs to save it?


Relatively stress free? Compared to what, hostage negotiations?

We had a 1-0 lead for 4 of those 7 outs, and a guy on base the final out of both the 7th and 8th innings.
Well true, but I did say "relatively". Sborz only allowed one hit, walked nobody and struck out 4. That's a welcome change from earlier in the year!

That would be epic. Would be cool for Pantera to have a float also.

If they head down Randol Mill a couple of miles, they can see Dimebag Darrell.

Ouch.


Was looking back through the start of the thread and saw this, I completely forgot about Josh Smith getting nailed in the face with a pitch.

But looking back through the first 10 or so pages, man all the signs of a special season were there. The first 2-0 start to a season since 2011, the most runs scored over the first 2 games since 1900, sweeping the defending NL Champions, etc.

What a season

FanGraphs has the Rangers 6 games worse than expected by BaseRuns

whatever that means


Pythagorean win percentage had them at 116 at the beginning of June. They've cooled off considerably, but even using the modified exponent of 1.81, they are still expected to win 105 games. They are actually on pace to win 96, meaning they are underachieving by 9 wins for the season, which is about 5 wins at present. It's the 800 lb gorilla that nobody is talking about. Run differential. You can't get around it. The Rangers are good, and are significantly underachieving. I politely mentioned this on the Astros thread about 6 weeks ago. My post was deleted. I had no idea why. The Houston thread doesn't even have a staff warning. But then when my posts over here got deleted, I guess I understood. You can't say anything negative about Houston anywhere. So, I'll keep it positive. Houston's biggest problem is that Texas is good.
Don't know when I first posted on the season thread, but I like this one from July 18th.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

Agreed. This team feels resilient. Definitely need to address the bullpen but these mofos have some fight in them.


They win 78 last season with a .500 record in one run and extra innings games. That's a 10 game improvement. They were 18-37.

This was a .500 club that added starting pitching. O/U should have been about 88.5. Much like 2010, not my fault if nobody was paying attention.
My first post was about LeClerc's inability to throw a strike in early May...but I like this one from May 7th.

Watching parade on TV. I'll keep an eye out for Mr. Gigem. If he doesn't get his premium season ticket holders a signed ball, I'm gonna skewer him.

I hope this link works and apologies if someone already referenced. My brother sent this yesterday. He pitched in the big leagues years ago and is a longtime minor league pitching coach.

You can tell we have not thrown a lot of victory parades here. Seems very disorganized.

High school homecoming parades are better organized than this.

They must be short on vehicles or something.

my favorite part is how they started the newscast like 4 hours ago completely unnecessarily. that first few hours had to have been some of the worst tv in DFW history. oh well, still worth it

Go vote. Either Seagers ninth inning game tying HR or Adolis walkoff.
