The Rangers now have a negative run differential

On the year at -1. That's a weird ass Stat 163 games in for the team with the 2nd best record in baseball

A lot of close wins and blowout losses. Sign of a very streaky team. But still is a bit of a oddity.

You'd think the one-run record had a bit to do with the bullpen, but their bullpen hasn't been that great.

Very interesting data there. Rangers might be one of the stranger (luckier? confusing? I dunno) teams in recent memory. None of that bodes well for a playoff run tbh. And today's performance will not encourage. But it's one game. Still think it goes to 5 though.

Can Rangers Ride Texas-Sized Luck into the Post Season?

Mostly due to some very poor bullpen pitchers who are now no longer in the pen. A lot of those runs were given up when guys like Tolleson and Wilhelmsen were pitching meaningful innings.

Including against the Jays - all three of their wins against them this season were by 1 run.
