The Houston Astros have been the best baseball team in Texas this season. No one would argue that as the final three-game set in the Lone Star Series begins Monday night at Globe Life Park.
The Texas Rangers, who are 7-9 against their southern neighbors this season, could still take the Silver Boot Trophy with a sweep this week, despite the Astros’ fast start that virtually clinched the division in March.
The Rangers have been the superior team over the previous five seasons, winning 60 of 92 games.
But who would have the edge if you thumbed through their team histories and hand-picked the all-time best lineups, then pitted them against one another?
