At the grandparents this weekend in the DFW area and all I've heard from them is how bad the rangers are this year. Watched the game last night, up 2-1 until the 6th where they give up 4 and lose 5-2. Lost their last 21 out of their last 24 games. Now today, just watched a blooper by Trout to center that scored 3, shouldve only let in 1 run maybe 2.

So i ask, what the hell happened this season? Ive been coming here since Ive been 5 and never seen it this ugly.

They have absolutely horrible injury problems. I hate the Rangers, but even I can defend them a little bit.

I heard some stat like they already have more games missed this year than the leading teams for the last two years combined or some shite.

Injuries and lost a lot of the people that made up the 09-12 teams.

Their decent playoff teams in the 90s went the same way.

They've always been a joke since they were formed as the second Washington Senators.

Outside of the 1996-1999 stretch and the 2010-2013 stretch, they were in pennant contention into September only three other times: 1974, 1993, and 2004.

It's not a matter of becoming terrible, it's a matter of returning to their historical levels.

But having Jon the Moron isn't helping. One trade (Elvis) and one FA signing (Beltre) does not a GM make.

I hate the Rangers so I'm enjoying every second of this. But they really do have really bad injury problems and that sucks for them.

It all started to go downhill when Hamilton went into the slump and falling out with management. Summer of '12.
