Congrats, fellas. The century mark is no small thing, especially three years straight. Just glad that effort by Cole was rewarded.

The Rangers post game broadcast is a pretty darned funny. 

They can't admit to being terrible and just dance around it for a half hour. 

[HoustonFrog 368]

So essentially two games up on the Yankees and two/three on Dodgers depending on their game?

[WBT 20376]

We need to go 4-5 to set the franchise record for wins

[tx 3 putt 75959]

Pretty sure we need to go 7-2 to secure HFA no matter what the fuck anyone else does at this point.

[UTexasFight 9364]

Well, I predicted 9-2 before the Rangers so...so far so good

[UTexasFight 9364]

[Pimphand 5552]

Rays wiiiiinnnn!

[TexArcher 37414]

1 up on the Yankees and 2 up on the Dodgers with 9 to play.

America, fuck yeah.

[henrygandorf 29169]

good day. 

[Pimphand 5552]

Just need to go 7-2 to clinch best record in baseball with 7 games against the Troutless Angels and 2 games against the Mariners.

That includes 6 starts from Verlander, Cole, & Greinke.

Time to unreel the dong. Slap shit down to finish with home field all the way. Use every advantage and wreck shit the rest of the way.

can’t the yankees go 9-0?

Yes too much bourbon consumed. We must go 8-1 to be sure

 

 

[APMP 684]

We own the tiebreaker against the Yankees, and I think we will soon own the tiebreaker over the Dodgers, but one of y'all can check me on that. I think the World Series home field advantage tiebreaker if we have the same record will be division record because we didn't play interleague against them this year, and we are six games up on the Dodgers in our respective division records.

Show me a loss! 

[UTexasFight 9364]

Frankly I’m surprised the Dodgers record against the NL West is only 6 games worse than our record against the AL West.

Were going to finish with somewhere around 55 wins against the West (out of 76 games).

[Scraps 13518]

NL West blows ass.  Dodgers should be about 60-7 against the West.  We would be if we were over there.  Hell we would only have 10 losses in the AL West if it wasn't for the 1 other real team in both those divsions that isn't leading 

Edited September 19, 2019 by Scraps

[Gut Wagon 8051]

I find it hard to compare the two West divisions. Don't know what our record would be if we were still out west in the NL (thanks, Bud), but not all of those teams are as weak as I thought they'd be. Arizona is still over .500 despite a recent tailspin. (Losing Greinke didn't help.) Also, the Giants seem to be on the rise. For that matter, even the Padres are halfway decent. The Rockies bite...but then, we also have some dogs in our own division.

All that said, doesn't matter. If we get to the World Series with our top three starters healthy and no more injuries to our better hitters, I love our chances.

Actually the AL & NL west are fairly mirror image except for ARI & OAK

LAD == HOU
SFG == TEX
SDP == LAA
COL == SEA

But yeah the Dodgers should have a better record because OAK is 14 games better than ARI

Are you high?  All the teams in both West divisions suck ass except the Stros, Dodgers and A's.

I don't consider teams around .500 to actually suck. They're obviously not elite...but they're not the Angels or Mariners or Rockies, either. Those teams suck. I'll grant you the Padres still are kind of sucky, but not nearly as much as they were a year ago.   

[TonyTexas 10467]

The AL West has the best combined record in MLB. All NL divisions are effectively tied with the AL East slightly behind them. The AL Central is last by a good margin.
