Unfortunately for the Rangers, he is very much not an innings eater.

all we have to do is ignore how much he gets pummeled after a couple of innings and let him go 5+ innings

I will never understand what the hell the FO was thinking with that move.

Do you ever wonder if they really want to win or just be satisfied dangling the old carrot enough to fill seats?

Hope he does not learn to hit and make us feel like " why did he not do that for us". Probably won't. The other two didn't.

Even if he does, he will be a free agent in a year and a half anyway.

I hope we will not need him then.

I think they want to win, but either way, Spencer Howard doesn't satisfy either of those outcomes

Amazing how little the Ranger name have bandied about with any free agent still available. It’s hard to keep this much a secret. I’ll be happy to see us mentioned as somewhat interested in any one.

That is the voice of a NTSU man. Seriously I would too. Seems as if they got what they wanted this year and waiting to finish up next year.

Have to assume they've got their ears to the ground about everyone

at this point we aren't talking big names, we're trying to talk about usable free agents that would fill needs at the moment

right but you never really hear about the small names ahead of time

give it a rest. there are at least 3 LF'ers that the Rangers should be interested in that would probably sign for a 1-year deal and 3 or 4 SP's too
