he can opt out so if they want to keep him they may have to consider adding to the deal to get him to stay.

Time to pass the torch to Scheppers.

Soria more than likely is going to close next year. His velo will be up to snuff and that's what the guy is being paid for. Wash loves his roles.

Not really, you just said he could opt out without saying why

I didn't realize it was based on number of appearances

I hear that most coaches do not go into the last year of their contract without an extension or being let go. Maybe this will be one of the exceptions to the rule.

On the Nathan front....

Daniels will address Washington?s contract privately; Expect offer to Cruz « Postcards From Elysian Fields

General manager Jon Daniels said Ron Washington’s contract situation will be discussed privately. Washington is signed only through next year but Daniels remains supportive of Washington and said any thoughts of a change this off-season were driven by the media and did not come from the Rangers.

Daniels, in his post-season address to the media, said the Rangers have to get back to their roots of making good baseball decision.

The Rangers also appear hesitant about picking up Joe Nathan’s $9.5 million option and may look at other ways to fill the role of closer.

Daniels also indicated the Rangers will extend a qualifying offer to free agent outfielder Nelson Cruz.

Yes it is Darryl. JD a little surprising at this statement. Wonder if Mc Cann is even a consideration? Lots of needs to shop with that budget.

GM smoke and mirrors talk. Bob and Ray will want to spend some cash.

But with the 10 million from MY coming of the books they do have about 40 million to spend.
