The Ranger's ain't going anywhere either.....

At least I don't think so.

The Blue Jays, and the Royals are superior teams.

We shall see!!

The Blue Jays, and the Royals are superior teams.

Superior teams usually win the season-long 162 G contest.

They don't always win the 5- and 7-G series.

Texas can compete with the likes of KC an Toronto because a.) the starting pitching -- Hamels, Holland, Perez --is capable of shutting anybody down (and Lewis has a history of rising to the occasion in October), b.) the Rangers' bullpen might be better than any other playoff team's and c.) the offense is productive...and versatile. They can play long ball, little ball or sequential offense.

Recently, it has been the "hot" team, not the "best" team, that has won the championship. See Giants, 2010, 2012, 2014.
