    Mike Minor 3yr/28 million with Rangers

    I hope that is to start.

    I would not want the Braves to do anything like that.

    9 million per.. not a bad gamble. we paid 12 million for a fat 40+ year old.

    MLBTR had him pegged at 4/28, so 3/28 this early in the offseason shouldn't be too shocking. The Rangers are clearly looking for an upside play as a SP, with impact BP arm as a fallback option.

    There are folks on this board wanting give a pitcher like Reed $30M-$40M, which is even more crazy.

    I think this is a great move by them. They know he could provide value as a late inning arm and has a shot at returning to form as a starter. The Doug Fister move was a good one for them as well.

    Hopefully for Mike, he's the one of the exceptions to the rule and I wish him luck. That said, I don't think I'd have gone anywhere near there whether you wanted to use him as a starter or reliever - just like I'd never offer Medlen or Beachy a major league deal given their histories.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    3/28 seems high for a guy that's pitched only 77 innings in three years. His last good year was 2013. Maybe he found something the will help him continue his success but I doubt it.
