The Texas Rangers are doing well right now. In four playoff games, Bruce Bochy’s squad has still not lost a single game.
In my opinion, there’s a lot of Bochy in there, exactly. The veteran manager wins everywhere he goes and he manages to do a lot with a little… on the mound.
Because no, the Rangers don’t have a big backup. But despite everything, Bochy manages to work miracles with this one, which is great.
Imagine if Max Scherzer were to return in addition, to play for a fourth team in the playoffs since 2019.
The Rangers are currently transported by the club’s hitters, but also by the song “Higher” by Creed. Guys listen to it before matches to cheer themselves up.
I adore.
Brief. All this to say that Rangers have the wind in their sails and that at the moment, it seems that nothing can slow down the club.
And according to a betting site, Bet Online, Rangers are the favorites, at the time of writing, to get their hands on the top honors.
Of course, it should be mentioned that it helps quite a bit that the Rangers have two wins in their division series, which no one else has.
No Nationale club currently has two games behind the tie in the divisional series.
I’m not saying that to belittle the Rangers, who are on fire at the moment, but to provide a nuance that is important.
This also probably explains the fact that the Orioles have the worst odds of any team still alive.
But never mind: the Rangers are doing well these days.
Call it recency bias if you want, but I like the Phillies’ chances of making a playoff run.
