Rangers Are Now One of Baseball's Biggest Long-Shots in 2015

Uninspired by the Rangers’ non-moves this Winter? You’ve got company.

As in, Las Vegas oddsmakers don’t believe in them either.

Three years ago just one strike from winning the World Series, the Rangers – according to the experts who build palatial hotels via their knowledge – now have better chances to win it all in 2015 over only the Phillies, Twins, Astros, Rockies, Diamondbacks and Rays.

The Rangers were 33/1 immediately after the season, but have dipped to 40/1 due to their absence of significant off-season moves. It’s official, the Cubs (12/1) have a much better chance of winning the 2015 World Series than the Rangers.

In a related story, tickets for Rangers’ Spring Training games in Surprise, Arizona went on sale this morning. Get ‘em while they’re, um, hot?
