I bet the Rangers play a ton more disciplined and cut down on the errors and mental mistakes next year.
Within five years they win a WS title.

Lol. I think you are listening to the wrong contingent.

I look at multiple sources. Here included. It's interesting to gauge opinions.

Hope Bochy gets final say on lineups, use of bullpen, strategy.
Let him be the top dog in the clubhouse.

Lol. Most of the beat writers took vacation because they didn't expect any news before the end of the WS.

Blow Jays announced a managerial extension this morning as well. I guess we live in that era now where nothing can wait.

Rangers are really going for it. Love to see it.

Rangers fans in Twitterverse seem to be happy, overall.

Congratulations, Chris Young!!! I think you got exactly who you wanted and that is to be congratulated.

I heard Bichy does not like FO interference

How is he on analytics? I am hoping for a.balanced approach.

We are on the beat

I heard he was brilliant from a situational standpoint but did not hear much from all the metrics part. He evidently keeps a book so the thought was he out managed other managers
And was good utilizing players vs loyal to a fault
I think this bodes well for us

Just more that during a game he balks at FO sending down messages ala Maddon

This from a Giants fan responding to a Rangers fan asking how they should feel:

"You'll feel great apart from when he benches a promising young prospect for a week in favor of an over the hill veteran because said prospect went 0-for-4 in a game."

Sounds familiar

Finally, once again the Rangers have a manager who is older than me.
