Josh Hamilton heading back to the Rangers?

[The Giant]

Opie, check in with any news you may have on this.

[GUMMO77]

Who's breaking the news on SBR now?

Opie?
LT?

[The Giant]

Opie has inside sources with the Rangers organization, Gummo.

Get with the program, kid.

[chico2663]

mlb baseball just had it on saying one of the teams that may be interested

[existential]

Angels will have to pay 66%-75% of his contract

[The Giant]

Possibly in exchange for Choo?

That would be...uh..interesting.

[King Mayan]

Opus sits around on tmz 24/7 not ESPN Texas.. Sorry!

[jjgold]

Hey belongs in Texas

[The Giant]

Mayan, I'm pretty sure Opie could kick your ass with two arms tied behind his back.

He is the Great White Hope.

[Booya711]

Best cocaine in Texas so makes fukking sense

[mpaschal34]

Talk in Dallas sounds like it's a done deal. No details of the trade though.

[Vegas39]

Didn't see this when I created thread

Opie pissed and makes Giants day

[GUMMO77]

Hamilton will make $30M in 2016 and 2017

[Vegas39]

Hamilton will make $30M in 2016 and 2017

he is getting divorce he will make 15 Million

[The Giant]

Choo appears to be out.

Thank God. I just looked up his stats, he appears to be another guy that dropped off the cliff after getting paid.

see a trend when Anaheim pays

[The Giant]

see a trend when Anaheim pays

Bats come here to die.

[jjgold]

That's why no matter what he has to play nobody going to bench a guy making that much money a.k.a. Alex Rodriguez

Hamilton will make $30M in 2016 and 2017

[existential]

i'd much rather buyout Hamilton than take back Choo and his $100M due

[EaglesPhan36]

LoL @ Rangers. I'm sure Opie will spin this as a genius low budget move for a guy who can't stay clean or healthy. Sounds like a great plan.

Astros > Rangers

[imadegen]

he sucks now anyways.

[jjgold]

It's a done deal's and you'll hear it on Monday officially

[The Giant]

Sounds like the Angels are going to get paid $15 million to have Hamilton taken off their hands.

Probably a good deal for Texas. Little risk, with some potential upside.

[El Nino]

Rangers

[opie1988]

Fabulous move. HUGH upside.

I predict Hambone comes home and relives his glory years.

Awesome news.

[Vegas39]

Awesome news.

yes his glory years

[jjgold]

The worst thing Josh did was leave Texas

[VeggieDog]

Wasn't it Hamilton that threw a ball to a fan and the guy fell over the railing trying to catch it and fell to his death?

[JohnnyD4916]

I thought he didn't like texas wasn't a baseball town but the drugs are good so I guess it evens out

[Booya711]

Yep Hamilton can't help the fact of a retarded fan

[Vegas39]

Yep Hamilton can't help the fact of a retarded fan

think he was banging the wife obviously was premeditated

yeah, good deal for Texas.. $15M over 3 years is nothing in baseball terms. heck, it's $5M less than they're paying for Choo each year.

that said, injuries will continue being a factor since his body is so susceptible to breaking down.

though as long as he doesn't get suspended again, he should be relatively serviceable and help sell some tickets.

[opie1988]

Welcome home, Hambone

[jjgold]

Texas is more laid-back for Josh I think he'll get into less trouble there and like Opie says he has all upside

[gauchojake]

Good riddance druggie

addition by subtraction
