    Texiera playing for Texas Rangers would be fitting. No but really the guy is going to have a luxurious retirement because he got paid! There's worse cases and I'm specifically talking about Vernon Wells yikes that was disastrous

    MLB - where one good season sets you up for a $200m deal, which ends up being filled with mediocre performances.

    Pujols - 25M for 2016 - 165M guaranteed left on his deal

    Kemp - 21M for 2016 - 60M gauranteed left on his deal

    Tex definitely worst of the 3, but the other 2 are not far behind.

    Let's not let Jason Heyward off the hook. At the PRIME of his career (unlike the others), he's hitting 231 with no power numbers to speak of. All this for a cool $23 million for the next 8 years. Total garbage!!
