Some Rangers fans are getting the change of scenery excuses ready. Or, maybe it will be the excuse that the Giants had the magic elixir. Lol

 

[saddles]

One more week until Sasaki can sign. We most likely won't know for sure unless rhe Rangers start trading for international bonus pool money, and see ven then they might only be in the final cut.

Maybe the closer market will take shape after Sasaki signs somewhere. Those guys seem to be waiting on something.

You guys stay safe in all of this winter weather coming our way.

MLBTR is saying we are apparently done as far as the bullpen is concerned

Or maybe they play the waiver game with him. Perhaps Posey saw something in him lol

If that’s the case, the Rangers will have quite a few losses late in games.

I hope they are too smart for that. I really think they are.

Guess we are finalizing up arbitration negotiations by tomorrow

guy on Nolanwritin is saying that the Rangers are the frontrunners for Sasaki

From the MLBTR arbitration tracker:

Rangers

• Jonah Heim (4.097):
• Dane Dunning (4.078):
• Josh Sborz (4.055): $1.1MM agreement reached in November
• Leody Taveras (3.124):

Heyman is reporting $4.75 for Tavares.

could live without the bottom three

Dunning has already agreed for $2.66 million.

Dunning has already agreed for $2.66 million.

doesn't mean he can't be traded. Sborz is going to the 60-say and Taveras needs to be traded

I imagine some trades for arbitration players have been delayed waiting for the final contract amounts. Hopefully, that has been the holdup with Taveras.
