    Irony of Rangers knocking A's out of playoffs this year

    Rangers have not been the same since that collapse. Could turnabout be fair play. Last 4 games in Arlington. Let's go Rangers

    I need 2 more losses to win my 1k bet on the As under this season. Would be great to win, as I chalked it up a loss a long time ago

    Same here! I might hedge depending on how first 2 games go. I don't see the As winning the series though.

    To attribute it to getting Samardja is freakin stupid. More like when they lost Cespedes

    Angels may mail it in to keep A's out. We'll see after today's games.

    I still believe Angels don't want A's in the playoffs. I can see this happening.

    I would mail it no doubt if I was the Angels but I don't think the A's will lose that many games

    Im thinking about betting the As series at -195... Would bet $1250 (amount I have risked on the season bet) to win $640... So worst case they go 4-0 or 3-1 and I lost $610 overall (better then $1250). Best case they go 2-2 and I win 1k (with the series price pushing). Or I push if they go 0-3 or 1-3.

    I'm not really seeing tex going 3-1 or 4-0, which would make this a must bet.

    Any thoughts?

    I'm not hedging. But if I were I would take A's ml -140 tonight. If it loses, you only need one more loss out of 3. Other than that let it ride.

    I would say this is true, but they surely want to beat the Orioles for the #1 seed....

    Texas just can't get over the hump. 1st and 3rd and can't score in the bottom of the 7th inning

    That might do it for us. I hope it doesn't come down to the last game for that last loss. Oh the drama.
