His contract will not handicap the franchise... especially one that has no issue adding payroll


But Prince isn't the only bad contract.

Elvis signed a big deal and hovers around .250. He also has problems with RISP.

Then there's Choo, who started out like he was coming back, but is now back down to where he's been the last several years, maybe a solid player but nowhere near the contract he earned.

I've already told my SO that if Jon the Moron is still GM next year, I'm not going to any more Rangers games. He's run this team into the ground; if any of us did this to a business our heads would roll.

I don't want to hijack their thread so I'll just say this. None of these contracts you mentioned are handicapping this franchise, injuries are. In the future, 4-5 years down the road when their skills start diminishing, yes it will and their contracts will look ugly. But that's a case every team goes through when signing high price free agents.

If the Rangers wanted to rebuild, it would be a very quick process. There is a good mixture of MLB talent(young and old), rising MILB talent on the horizon, and a staff ace to build around. A healthy rotation would be all this team needs.

We may be cellar dwelling right now, but this isn't a team that needs 5-10 years to rebuild. This has been a lost season, but this team isn't anywhere close to being finished.



Sorry for the hijack.
