Napoli is a FA I'm pretty sure.
Cruz finally played a full year. And it was lackluster. He's under contract for 1 more year. He hasn't been someone the rangers could rely on, ever. Whether its injuries or inconsistency. Usually both at the same time. Though he has some incredible hot streaks.
Kinsler had a poor year as well.
Beltre has never played well when he has had to be "the man".

You could say the same thing about Hamilton. He's an incredibly streaky hitter and fragile as well. He's also going to be 32. Napoli will be a free agent but the Rangers will certainly make an effort to re-sign him. Cruz had an OBP of 319 which is pretty much spot on league average. So a 25-30 HR guy with a league average OBP is suddenly a bad thing? In what universe?
Kinsler is the real key. The Rangers have heavily invested in him and they absolutely need him to bounce back.
And Beltre put up better numbers than Hamilton this year, though it's pretty close (but Beltre gets a huge edge for consistency, Hamilton spent most of the year watching his numbers erode from a nuclear hot start). Beltre had to be "the man" THIS year. And he delivered.
