Certainly, the 2024 season was a big letdown for the Rangers and their fans. In 2023, Texas beat its intra-state and American League West Division arch-rival Houston Astros, for its first World Series championship. Since arriving in the Dallas and Fort Worth Metroplex in 197, the Rangers suffered heartbreak with the baseball betting odds. Most fans gave the Rangers a pass in 2024 because of bringing home that World Series title. But 2025 has arrived, with fans and gamblers expecting much more. So far, they are not generating the profits they expected from a recent world champion.
