Joe Nathan to Rangers. Neftali Feliz will become a starter.

How many saves is Nathan going to blow next year?Comment -
That means Wilson is pretty much a lock to end up with the Angels.Comment -
Bingo. Rangers knew Wilson was gone anyway. Good reactionary move. Don't think it is an upgrade though, but it's not horrible.Comment -
Great pitching prospects are a waste as relievers. You can create a closer, and other positions. If the guy has the talent, get him pitching 6/7 innings every 5 days. Much more value added to team.Comment -
Bard should be the next guy moved to a starting position.Comment -
Sounds like a good move for Texas.
Good riddance to Wilson if you're a Ranger fan. Arrogant pr1ck is no no. 1 starter anyway as evidenced by the fact the Rangers have not one a single on of his 7 playoff starts. Let someone else pull a Barry Zito for him.Comment -
I'm not feeling Feliz as a starter like I was CJ, honestly. He just doesn't seem like he's got the goods to consistently put up quality starts. He certainly can't do worse in the playoffs, though.
I wish the Rangers had gotten a better closer to replace Feliz, though. I'm not a fan of guys in their mid-30s with a declining velocity and previous major surgery. Call me crazy.Comment
