We don't forget. Hey front office, you snooze, you lose.

Hunter Pence is just a joy to watch. And because of him, this dyed-in-the-wool National league fan has started following the Texas Rangers. My Magic 8-Ball says the Rangers have a good shot at toppling the Astros in the American League West division, and if that doesn't happen, they will surely ride into post-season play on a Wildcard ticket.

Sandoval is totally doing it this year, but I guess with Bochy's departure next year, and him becoming a free agent, he knows he's got to deliver before the negotiation talks begin.
