Plus 26 SB this season which is among the AL leaders. It appears with this move the team is going to commit to this new-look "Runnin' Rangers" approach.

Now I have heard elsewhere that Rios has been a clubhouse problem, but those sources are questionable. Has anyone else heard this from more reputable sources? One of the Rangers' primary strengths is their clubhouse unity and I remember how Josh (and Oswalt to a lesser extent) wrecked it last year; I don't want to see a repeat.

There's been some chatter about him not playing hard, but I don't think that's the case. Just a guy who may be disinterested on a really shitty team.

I think this is a great pickup given what you gave up for them. Ownership stepped up and put the money in the team to take on the contract.
