We care about football more when we can't win the division.

FRAUDS.

I'm just laughing at all this crowing over the division coming down to the last day of the season against a team that's supposedly vastly inferior.


Your laughing that your team choked away the division against a down year Astros team?

Um. Grats?

I think both of these teams will find it hard to advance to the final, both have issues and the NL has 2 -100 plus win teams …. But both need to play the games and let the chips fall, anything could happen to either team

I know it's meaningless but 'stros looking to catch Arlington's run differential soon. Leave no doubt.


It was a good run
Can we get an update on that pursuit?


How bout an updated fangraphs' playoff and division winner chart?

The Rangers season went south when they lost the stud third baseman, it can be mapping almost directly to that, was a huge loss

There it is. One hell of a moral victory you have there.

No moral victory. We lost. Still comical watching y'all act like the Rangers have been at full strength while you won the division with one hand tied behind your back.

We went 2 and 7 against Oakland and the Royals and still slept walked our way to the banner while ya'll had your best season in 7 years only to still fall short.

It stings. I know. 2016 stung. You mother ****ers went like 32 and 0 in one run games while we slapp dicked around to barely above 500.

But then 2017 happened and we proceeded to become one of the most dominant franchises in recent mlb history.

Maybe next year?

Congrats on your division title.

I think most ranger fans are happy with improving 30 games over last season and ending the playoff drought.

We were never winning anything with Jeff banister as manager. Banny fell in love with players like Carlos Gomes, roughened odor, and delino deshields.

Cmon now.

Of course. It's q big step. A full healthy Rangers with this roster could be nasty. Both fanbases just gotta hope for the best next year.

But if we both manage to be fully healthy the AL West is gonna be nasty in 24.

Full throated *****ing and complaining about umpires, Arizona's lineup, and fragile pitchers is a funny way of being happy.

There it is. One hell of a moral victory you have there.


I laugh at the "we would have won the division going away if not for the injuries" comments. Most teams dealt with injuries. They say deGrom, I'll give you McCullers. They say Jung, I'll give you Alvarez. They say Heim, I'll give you Altuve. They say Eovaldi, I'll give you Urquidy. And I still have Garcia and Brantley to throw on the table... all expected starters. The Dodgers, Braves, Orioles, Rays... everyone had to overcome injuries, so while playing the "what if" game might be cathartic, it's a zero-sum exercise.

Try to keep up. I already acknowledged your injuries. I'm well aware you lost Altuve, Alvarez, Brantley, never had McCullers, among others I'm sure I've forgotten about.

No one said that. We did say that everyone dealt with injuries (see my post above) so that argument amounts to a steaming pile of so-what.

Haha, glad to see you looking at the bright side this morning. Enjoy October baseball and hopefully our teams meet up in the ALCS with a week of angst and abject nausea on the menu.

LOL. Looks like the flight is only 5.5 hours, but goes through 3 time zones. That's pretty rough after being on the road through Aneheim without a stop home, and then having to go to Baltimore with a win over the Rays.

We also were without our incredible hitting catcher for half the season....oh wait, that was Dusty's fault.

We are only talking about the rangers choking because of how the Astros played against the worst teams in the league the past few weeks. Otherwise, we would have wrapped up the division a week ago.

all the butthurt on this thread from both sides is what makes sports great.

I look forward to this rivalry for many years to come. It will never reach Giants Dodgers level of hate, but we can all at least try to get it there

Not trash here... But I personally hope the Rangers get past the Rays and Orioles. Stros vs Rangers for the ALCS would be awesome.
