how could they take on halladay's salary?
They aren't worried about 2010, but they are trying to get Toronto to take on the majority of the rest of the 2009 season salary.

I didn’t think they could. According to the Ticket, they can’t even afford grass seed and baseballs. So, if they add salary, I have no earthly idea how.
But I do disagree that the team needs hitting. The big narrative this season for the Rangers is “bad hitting, good pitching”. And it’s not true. For the record, runs scored vs. runs allowed:
RS/G: 4.88 (6th), AVG = 4.79
RA/G: 4.41 (4th), AVG = 4.69
They’ve been good at both. And with Davis out of the lineup, Hamilton healthy, and Kinsler (hopefully) out of his slump, the offense should reasonably be expected to improve in the second half. The team is being carried by a stellar bullpen and mediocre starting pitching. They need a starter more than anything. Halladay is a great move if they can afford it.
