Not sure when this was updated, but a word of caution about spending money (based on payrolls)... a few days ago based on the record:
1 New York Mets $343,523,077
2 New York Yankees $278,534,629
3 San Diego Padres $253,125,318
4 Texas Rangers $247,284,631
You might want to spend more wisely... just a thought.
Top 3 are missing the playoffs……….
One of my favorite pastimes is watching @JuliaMorales interview Jose Altuve and trying to figure out how he’s going to reframe the question to not talk about himself 😂

He’s the best.
Imagine how ignorant and/or deranged you’d have to be to intensely boo this guy regularly for several years. https://t.co/7d2IbUxjpm

Craziest baseball stat ever.

No, seriously.
Jose Altuve had three homers before the 7-8-9 hitters for the Rangers even had their first at bat. Put your head around that for a second. Wow.
Baseball is the good stuff.
I've never celebrated it besides laughing about it during the first day when it actually happened.BadAggie said:

Lot of baseball left. Astros looking hot but don't forget, Dusty is still our manager. Anything could happen.
The Rangers bullpen has now allowed 20 runs since September 1st.

You piss in your own coffee before drinking it, don't you?
Houston's 14 homers are a club record for any three-game series.

my god it must suck to be a rangers fan. "Salvage something for next year"? Y'all have damn near a month of baseball left and you're throwing in the towel already. Effin pathetic attitude. No wonder y'all were throwing parades and retiring jerseys at the all star break.South Platte said:
When Houston is clicking they are simply a beast. This is a truly historic beatdown. Seriously, this has to be some sort of single series record.
Nothing we can do except give them credit. Try to move on and finish the season and salvage something for next year.

Rangers fans remembering all the things they said to Astros fans in April

The team who's fan base is 5 years starved for success, that no one expected to compete is in 1st for the first 2 months of the season (including taking the first series in the other's park) and no one feels the need to post here.
The team that's coming off their first legit championship and everyone had marked as a favorite again gets themselves in second but a closer second and starts needing the validation and to see if everyone is noticing them.
I think we can finally put to bed which fan base has the little brother complex…
