The Rangers and Josh Hamilton have been talking about a long term contract. Unfortunately, Hamilton upset the talks with the alcohol relapse a few weeks ago.
I think that the Rangers need to present Hamilton with a 3-5 year contract in the $75 million range. You can add some behavior related clauses to protect the Rangers.
The new contract will have a huge impact on the team and the fans:
1) It will send a message that the Rangers will pay their best player;
2) It will send Hamilton an important message that the team cares about him and his future; and,
3) It will make the fans happy because Hamilton is very popular around here.
So let's get it done. The Rangers need to sign Hamilton. Click here for our Saturday sports show:
