When you lose multiple starting players at the same time, you're going to suffer and will be hard-pressed to replace them. This is what I was referring to. Whether the Rangers were projected to be better than the Jays or not, may not be all that relevant to the point I raised, which is that the Rangers didn't have enough depth to deal with the myriad injuries they've had. In fairness, there probably isn't a team out there that could cope with the injuries they've had, but I think this also applies to the Jays last season.
