I have never met anyone outside of Rangers fans the reference all time head to head record. It's so completely ridiculous yet completely on brand.

Easy, easy camel cowboy. You're going to call out Switzer? Son of a bootlegger, 3X national champion? One of the coolest guys to walk the planet?Marvin said:Hornbeck said:Marvin said:

I'm kicking myself for not adding Barry Switzer to the list.

people have been saying this about the Astros farm for years, meanwhile they just keep calling up MLB ready prospects.gigem1223 said:
Weird what happens when all your top prospects get called up over the past couple seasons….
This list also doesn't include Rocker or Teodo who are both lighting up AA ball. They'll both be in the top 50 when the next rankings drop.

Remember when it was said on the trash talk thread that 7 straight ALCS wasn't that big of a deal?
Well seems like just making back to back playoffs might be tougher for some

This ranking dropped a few days ago.
Are any of the top guy called up doing anything?

Count me out of that convo. The Astros run is very impressive.
As for the Rangers, I'm not sure if it's Boch's typical every other year suck deal or if it's just too many injuries to overcome or a mix of both.

Where did I say they didn't? What the astros have overcome is impressive but they haven't had to deal with as many injuries as the Rangers.
Don't forget starting pitchers Christian Javier and Jose Urquidy… that's 5 starting pitchers that will most likely be on the field next year (Lance M may be done .. who knows )…. Add in Brown, Framber Valdez, and Blonco and our starters and pen will be one of the top stating rotations and middle relief in the leagueTarponChaser said:gigem1223 said:

And the Astros haven't had, and still have, major holes due to injuries this year? JV, Tucker, Garca, LMJ, and so on.

No it's not. The rangers lead the AL in war lost to the IL and it's really not that close.

That means it out of date for the rangers too….. who have accumulated more since

WAR isn't a real stat no matter what some try to claim.
