How to play the Texas Rangers roster timeline game

Rangers players make up this deck, ordered by the year each one joined the franchise. One player is placed at the start with his year showing. Every new card shows a name and a position, maybe left fielder or relief pitcher, and you pick the gap he belongs in. Right picks reveal the year; wrong picks still put him in his true spot and cost one of three lives.

The Rangers began as an expansion team in Washington, so some of the earliest cards come from the second Washington Senators before the club moved to Texas. Relief pitchers are the single largest group, and bullpen arms are notoriously hard to place. The middle of the deck is crowded. Watch for players with more than one stint in Arlington; the card counts from the first.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
