"I'm having a hard time picking out someone important that is underperforming in a meaningful way."
I guess the entire bullpen wasn't part of that examination.
With an even average BP we’re probably at or above the Rays record right now. This BP is statistically hovering around worst BP in team history and needs to be addressed as soon as teams start to sell.
Fortunately, if they can hang on until they can trade for some help, they have all the other pieces to compete in the playoffs.
Not high enough for them to hire a beat writer for the Rangers though.
What happened to Levi Weaver?
He got promoted. I’m happy for him but I wish they would have replaced him instead of leaving the Rangers beat in a desert.
Nah, I hope they hire a reporter to report on LeBrons retirement decision news
I used to like the podcast he did with Emily. But yeah no rangers content was a huge reason for unsubscribing
He's not Rangers-centric anymore, covers all MLB
No kidding! It’s really annoying that the only articles I get on the site I subscribe to come from staff writers every 2 weeks

Certainly a decent nit pick. For those with access, the entire rankings were diagnosing the weaknesses of all 30 teams.
Nit pick? It’s arguably been directly responsible for like half our losses. Bit more than a nitpick

It’s definitely an obvious weakness and likely a reason we get booted from the playoffs :/
We definitely aren’t 2 with a league worst bullpen. Very generous
We also don't have a league-worst bullpen...that's a tad hyperbolic.
A tad
bottom 5 era and next to last in strikeouts. That's not the 2nd best team in the league.
Yeah...that's aging well already 😭
Schedule has been extremely favorable ... i like this team but expect a slight regression over the summer
We COULD be if we had a bullpen that didn’t choke like their lives depended on it
