    Haven’t been this excited to pick up the Dallas Morning News in a long time. Add it to the collection. The last titles my teams have won.

    Man, how I wish my dad could have been here to see this. Biggest Rangers fan ever. I was on the phone with him in 2011 when we needed one more strike. I’ve never heard such a crushed, disappointed rea

Pitiful fucking series. I'll be amazed if we win a playoff game but I'm here for it. 

Congrats to the Astros for being just not shitty enough to still win the division. 

Total embarrassment, epic failure. Thanks, Chapman!

Well, at least they made the postseason but with the hitting taking days off and this shitty bullpen, it might be a short trip.

Vander Esch fumble 6. For those of you that care more about the Boys. 

What an absolute shit show of a series. Starting with Chapman in game 1.

Choker-assholes even made me miss a Cowboys TD.

that was 99% Bruce Bochy and 1% Chapman. Fucking old ass manager trusts his “gut” instead of statistics that a 6 year old could look up.

Ended there, as I astutely pointed out days ago.

No one cares. About either of these things. 

Bruce got a little bit Botch-y. 

Rangers are some choking bitches.

Have fun not having an NFL team then I guess. I bet if the Texans were cashing superbowls your avatar would have something to do with the Patriots.

No scrub that is not how that works....

I grew up with Nolan Ryan, Earl Campbell, & Hakeem Olajuwon. Have the Texans retired Earl Campbell's number? No then fuck them and fuck you clown

And has anyone seen my bitch?

You're posting in a rival's thread, dipshit. I'll tell you whatever the fuck I want in the Rangers thread. 

Fuck the AL West title. Let the Asstros have it. I want the World Series

We could have gone through the Jays/Twins winner to get there. Now we have to go through the Rays then Orioles.

It was a colossal fuck up to not win the division.

Terrible timing for the bats to go ice cold.   The offense was incredibly shitty the entire road trip.  It's kind of a miracle we strung together those hits yesterday (almost none of which were hit hard).  Wasted 2 really good pitching performances Thurs and Sun.  Oh well.  On to Tampa.   Bats better wake up or going to be a short run.

How many days did we have the division lead this year? Feels like at least 85%. We gave it up a little and then got it right back. Absolutely a kick in the nuts to end the year.

I'm shocked they even made the wild card given all the dollars they lost with starting pitching and the bullpen.  it's likely to end here but who knows.

Glass half full is they were better against the Rays and O's than the Twins. They did great against the Jays but who knows...

The bats just need to wake the hell up, again.

Given the hot/cold offense they're due this next series.

Let's fucking go. I'm excited for playoff baseball.

Ask your whore mother.  She's probably eating ass non-stop trying to find the love and acceptance that slut obviously does not deserve.

Hey I know we blew a save Thursday and have now gotten shut out twice in the biggest series of the season but Marcus is going to lead the AL in hits. I mean he's 0 for 3 today but let's put it on the wall.

So aggy.

9:15AM and already a long day with the fans of baseball aggy at work.  Apparently the astros won the championship of the universe last night.  I take solace in 3 talking points:

1 - the Rangers are still more elite in the AL West with more championships in the AL West (and without cheating!)
2 - what really matters is where everyone sits at the end of this month
3 - I hope after the season the MLB takes a hard look at the Verlander/Cora fight in their series against the Red Sox.  That was pretty clearly cheating to avoid a pitch clock violation and if the MLB forces them to vacate a game they clearly cheated in well then all this hubris gets really fucking interesting.

At best the astros won the division against a better team due to a rut of bad hitting.  At worst they won the division due to cheating yet again.  Regardless I guarantee they go full aggy and put a pennant up at their park.  Really sad.  

I'm pretty happy to be in the playoffs considering how bad out pitching and bullpen situation has been. Interesting fact: The Rangers lost 39 games they led - 11th worst in baseball

Other AL playoff teams:
O's - 27
Astros - 28
Rays - 29
Twins - 34
Jays - 35

Metric I read last night was 63 Save Opportunities vs 30 Saves.  47.6% conversion.

Haven’t posted in a Rangers thread on here in at least a few years, so no idea what your tone is here, but I actually agree with the sentiment. 2002 A’s won the West, lost in the Division Series out of the gate, and watched from home as the Angels went on to win the WS. I wonder if the 2011 Cardinals still lose sleep on missing out on the NL central?

We all want World Series. And the first step to securing the easiest path is to win your division. We go from getting a week break and letting 2 other teams burn through arms and waiting for them at home to now having the hardest path in the AL. 3 game series on the road with the 2nd best team in the AL. Followed by facing the best team in the AL and then most likely the Astros, a team who has been to the last 6 ALCS. All will be on the road.

But let's see what happens starting tomorrow.

lmao, tell us how the series record from 1970-2023 favors the Aggs (Arlington) or when they let girls on campus

I'm shocked they were that good. I'd be curious what it was post all-star break. Felt like 36 of those 39 losses were in August/September.

Glad Montgomery is on the mound tomorrow. Last four outings: 27 innings, 22 SO, 5 walks, 2 ER.

Hopefully it's an advantage that the Rays didn't face him this year... maybe?

Regardless, the offense probably needs to come up with more than one run to back him up.

Funny how many people on this site rag on how Houston and various surrounding communities are aggy central, then claim that Houston is not an aggy-level fanbase because it hurts their dick to be compared to the aggy that they are.   

I have zero expectations for this post season.  Making the playoffs is a huge accomplishment for this team given the past several years +horrible injury luck + shitty bullpen.  Losing the West when it was in hand really sucked but hopefully a learning experience of some sorts for next season and beyond during this window.  As for tomorrow, somewhat playing with house $$ as deserved underdogs.  Should be fun.
