Odds stacked against Rangers as Seattle is favored to repeat as AL West champions

As we inch closer to spring training, predictions about division winners are already dominating the conversation and with no surprise, the Texas Rangers are not looking too good.

When it comes to the American League West Division, the Seattle Mariners are favored to repeat as division champs, the consensus is that the Rangers have the third-best odds out of the five team division.

After two straight missed postseasons, the Rangers spent the offseason dumping underperformers on big contracts and replacing them with a lot of hit-or-miss targets. That has led Texas to being seen as a bottom 10 team heading into the new year.
