Saw that coming.

Dbacks blow no exaggeration 15 chances.

Rangers being no hit through 6 go hit, hit, hit to score first.

Zona better get it going fast or baseball season is over.

Runners on corners no outs and Dbacks didnt allow another run.

Get in, get hot.

 Both teams recently stunk and both teams had lousy stretches this past season.    Prior to the playoffs, how many players from either team could the casual fan name?    It was fun and Arizona certainly had their chances in game 5.  But, Texas stayed hot.   Kudos.

Shockin', aina?

Given the success between ‘78-‘83 and the opportunity between ‘87-92, yes.

The previous owner mismanaged the club for a decade after that but the current ownership has put the team in position in 2008 and 2011 and again every year since 2017.  Even the rebuild years between ‘15 and ‘17 were pretty competitive

I’m sure Rangers fans would agree the ‘10 and ‘11 teams were superior to the ‘23 team.  Keep taking bites at the apple

I hadn't heard it before used in a context other than when it was originally used. I guess you had. Congrats!

I would’ve liked to keep Canha around next season.

Not sure if he was worth the option price though. Brewers need hitters bad.

Eh, I think he was a DFA candidate.  Would’ve been a good platoon type, though, and can play multiple places

Least watched World Series ever? Didn't realize viewership was that low until I heard this stat on the radio.  Is baseball really that unimportant in American life now?

I'd have only been surprised if the ratings had been decent.

Two ballclubs that only the fans of the teams care even remotely about. Not only do they have relatively few fans, but who would tune in because they "hate" the Rangers or D-Backs? Nobody.

Hate to say it because I like Canha but that’s a good bit of business by Arnold.

The localization of baseball television contracts means that most fans really only care about their team. It just isn’t a national sport. And it doesn’t have the NBA’s younger demographic either.

Detroit has an abundance of young, left handed hitting outfielders.    With Cabrera retiring, the only position player on the roster with more than a couple of years of experience is Baez.   Which is a whole different problem.  The Tigers also have a lack of consistent right handed power.   

   May be a one year rental.   Checks the right boxes.   Experienced, professional, right handed hitter.

But this also tells me that the Detroit brass are not convinced a couple of their hot minor leaguers are ready.
