The Rangers just crapped the bed, and they certainly don't sound like they are willing to clean it up anytime soon.
This offseason has become nothing but a huge giveup, after it sure looked like they were serious last year when they went after Beltre after Lee bolted. So we are to believe that Joe Nathan (a rebuilt closer) taking over for Nefti and Nefti taking over for CJ is going to be an upgrade for a team that lost two consecutive WS?
The Rangers have let the best starting pitcher on the market who was seriously considering signing with them walk for not one, but TWO STRAIGHT YEARS!!!!!!!!! And the difference both times has been their unwillingness to give that pitcher one...ONE MORE YEAR on the end of the contract.
At what point do you get over the fear and commit to winning long term? This wreaks of Tom Hicks thinking. "Well we gave it a shot, but he just wanted a little more money." BULL***T!!!!!
The new owners want to talk about doing what it takes to stay competitive, but they sure as hell aren't doing S**T about it!!!! The Angels just took a comanding hold of this division, and yet I hear talk that the Rangers aren't going to do anything on Darvish or Fielder. Oh, and now the Angels are going to try to get Bailey after signing Hawkins last night.
What a joke...
