They'll get it done with Garcia prior to the date for the arbitration hearing. Suspect Boras will drag out the Montgomery negotiations until just prior to the report date for Spring training (about a month from now).Per recent Evan Grant articles in DMN, I'm optimistic the Rangers will get Garcia and Montgomery signed.

Exactly. No way the Rangers would cough up that much for him. He definitely helped the Rangers this past season, but IMO he was never viewed as a long-term acquisition. There are better places to spend $10M a year.at 10M plus, he got far beyond what the Rangers were willing to pay.
Yes and at times you never knew which Chapman you were going to get.Exactly. No way the Rangers would cough up that much for him. He definitely helped the Rangers this past season, but IMO he was never viewed as a long-term acquisition. There are better places to spend $10M a year.
Agree, FWHORN - but I think it goes further. Montgomery is a solid long-term part of the rotation, even when the walking wounded return. He certainly boosted the Rangers last season when they really needed the boost.The Rangers have almost done enough this offseason to set themselves up for a run but Montgomery is almost make or break for the first half of the season.
Also crickets on the TV deal. The Amazon deal with Diamond Sports does not include the Rangers.
Evidently, Diamond Sports (Bally's Parent and the organization in bankruptcy) had at least three different regional contracts. One was for most of the teams, one for the Yankees, and one for Texas and Clevland (it is not clear if this was one contract or two separate identical contracts). The Yankees pulled out last season. The "Amazon" investment was for everyone other than Texas and Clevland.How does it exclude some of the regional networks?
