It was too much to expect him to be as great as he was last year, but still he was expected to be one of the better closers this year. Looks like it was indeed a pretty awful trade. Most closers dont have back to back great years. Even with a very good diaz, they were still ultra-shallow in the pen and didn't address it. That trade is bad but not awful if they add a bunch of other solid closers. they didn't and they had a chance until as late as last week to do so. it is very clear there is no priority to win, and that exact trade is proof of that.

Wigs thinks the Rangers are 11 wins better than they were last season lmao Pretty sure that's at least 12 wins too many :thinking: I have no fucking idea dude The team lost Beltre (Admittedly, he was old). They lost almost all of their pitching rotation (Minor was the #4 guy last year for a reason). Profar (Who could've easily been the #2 guy on the team after Elvis if the team bothered finding a role for him) was traded. The only positive I can see is that this team made is that all of the young guys had another year under their belts. There is literally no reason to think this patched together nonsense would make a team even one win better than last year's dumpster fire, let alone be one that looks statistically decent. And the Rangers are still having their perrenial closer issues too <_< i more had them higher because there's a lot of bad and mediocre teams in the AL that the rangers would get to see a lot. I figured a lot of it would be a mediocre-fest. I think I also was short too many wins when I did everyones numbers so I had to add a bunch somewhere and I think a number of those went to the rangers lol --- ~Wigs~ 3-Time Consecutive Fantasy B8 Baseball Champion 2015 NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPION NEW YORK METS <cite>WiggumFan267 posted [p:923281733] in 2019 Baseb...
