And to think, 2 years ago, the Rangers & Diamondbacks combined for 212 losses.

I was hoping for a sweep, so we could get on with offseason baseball. Not too many care about this World Series. Sorry if I'm offending those who do.

They traded both Sandy Alcantara and Zach Gallen along with 2 other prospects for Ozuna Arozerana for Liberatore , although Liberatore still has a chance to make it look better in time . Garcia was a flat out purchase and I don't imagine for much , so hope that money helped

Too bad about that. I mean, im not trying to be petty, but. Ok yeah, i am, but cmon its the Cardinals - screw em Anyway game 3 should be fun. First one im getting to watch. Lets go Adolis Garcia and the Rangers!

And now a non contender is playing in the WS , so doesn't that now make them a contender ? *the mind boggles* (picked that one up from rev!)
Of all the things I've said, that one stuck, eh? Kinda gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling. (Sad to say, though, that I'm rooting against your Rangers. However, my sports karma this year sucks mightily, so that might be good news for the Rangers).

They are also about 91 million under the luxury tax which I hear you have to go over to be a contender.

Going to game 5, DBacks have controlled the series, imo, TX was lucky to split.
DBacks should be able to knock around Scherzer tonight.
I'll say DBacks win the next two and lose on Wednesday and than close it out in game 6.

Only way to turn it around is sign one of those guys for 10+ years and 300+ million or you just can't be a contender.
