Are the rangers interested?

The Winter Meetings in December of 1988 when Grieve made trades for both Franco and Palmeiro on back to back days has to be just about the best Winter Meetings in this team's history. Oh, and a day after that a pitcher by the name of Nolan Ryan was signed. Not a bad three days at all.

That's not a terrible deal, but I doubt Shields takes it.

JD had better have learned his lesson last off season. Shields at 80 is too much for me. I've never been that enamored with the guy though. 4/65 and I would love to have him though.

Imagine 4 years 65 million with a vesting option worth 18 MM in 2019 if he makes 200 IP in 2018 with a buyout of 2MM.

Preller got there and has totally revamped the team. Pretty amazing - at least on paper - what he's put together in one short off season.
