    Basically they are giving up nothing, and getting Josh for 5 mil a year for 3 yrars. Possibly cheaper.

    Not a bad deal at all. If this goes through, then that means Detroit and the Angels are combining to pay $100 million of the Rangers players salary

    Welp, if they get him on the cheap then whatever. Still, the guy had a pretty disgraceful exit from Arlington and I'm really not on board with bringing him back.

    Hurts them more than help though in more than one way imo.

    Too prone to striking out. And you're just waiting for this dude to relapse again. Trainwreck waiting to happen.

    Pretty much no risk for the Rangers - latest reports are that the Rangers might be paying less than $15 million of Hamilton's contract. I wasn't happy with how he left, but there's really nothing to dislike about this. If he sucks, we didn't lose anything, if he's decent, we got ourselves a productive OF for cheap.

    I don't get it. He started having substance problems at Texas before he went to the
    LLA. He is suspended /or not playing right now for the same problem. Are the
    Rangers now run by Jerry Jones? Ham is not worth the luggage he has with him.
    Move on ...But as a Astro's / Red Sox fan , I think Josh will be a good fit for the Rangers ....Kind
    of like Rondo was for the Mav's......

    nice win tbh where will Banister put Hamilton? Smolinki and DeShields have been pretty awful, but DeShields has only had a handful of AB's, and Peguero has been pretty average with a ton of strikeouts.

    While I'm not predicting they will make the playoffs or anything, they literally had an absurdly bad slump to start the year, and everyone overreacted as if this team is going to barely win 50 games or something. It was hard to imagine that Choo/Andrus/Beltre and another 3-4 regular lineup hitters was going to keep hitting under .200 for an entire season. The starting pitching has actually been pretty solid overall, aside from Detweiler. The bullpen has been streaky, but I'd imagine that Feliz will get his stuff together quickly. Tolleson and Kela have been fantastic with the exception of one poor outing per person, which is normal. Pimentel has had some nice appearances too.

    This team is much better than how they have started the season, with a winning % of .333. This should be around a .500 team if they remain relatively healthy, which is pretty solid considering they have lost Darvish, Holland, and Perez all to injury, and they are arguably their 3 best starting pitchers. I think there is a lot to like about this team, especially with all the youth they have that is developing, especially building up for next season.

    Looking forward to adding some power to the lineup with Josh. They definitely could use it. I don't have massive expectations of him, but fact is, you really can't get too much worse than what Smolinski and Peguero have been offering (with the exception of these last two games from Peguero lol)

    Former Rangers manager Ron Washington was hired as a coach for the A's.

    Well boys, looks like we have a new closer. Shawn Tolleson closed out the last two games in Boston for two relatively drama free saves.

    It's been pitching by committee thus far but yeah Tolleson looked good @BOS. Last night's game @NYY was ing intense without him available
