The 2023 Texas Rangers are headed to the post season!
In 2022, they won 68 games. The season before that, they won 60.
The last time they had a winning season was the last time they went to the post season, 2016. There are three players from that team that are also in the 2023 team; Jose Leclerc, Martin Perez, and Matt Bush. Bush and Perez have since been with different teams.
This team is mostly guys who have never experienced a playoff run and a few guys who have but with other teams.
Let’s be real here, the only expectations for this season should’ve been having a winning record.
