He signed with the Angels for 5yr/125 million. I can't wrap my head around this one at all. How can the Angels justify this? I can see a 3yr contract max. I understand when he is healthy he is a great to mvp type player but he isn't consistently healthy or sober to be blunt(no pun intended). How about mlb not worry about a luxury tax and consider some sort of salary cap? All in all the Angels or owners can do as they wish but as an arm chair coach/player/owner I'm puzzled on this one.

As a Texas Rangers fan I'm happy Josh got what he was looking for. Good luck and health to him.

I am also glad Texas didn't overextend themselves like the Angels did here.

No pitchy no winny!!

Hope it works out for them as well as the Pujos deal did.

I am so glad the NYY passed on this. Heard the rumors, but it would have been a disaster in NY. I'm surprised at the size of the K because of the years too. Wow.

Good Luck to Josh,,,

He was a fairly good soldier here , with a few hiccups.

He paid he dues. He's 32 and deserves to get paid...

Before he starts smoking Meth and dropping oxy again,,,

Stockpiling bats doesn't help the pitching much.

Just sayin'.

He will put the Halos in HEAVEN..

Cracks me up listening to the local sports radio today.

A month ago they were trying to run Hamilton out of town.....today, the sky is falling.

I'm with Macs,,,,Halos are the new Rangers.......lots of bats....no pitching.

Rangers have invested in pitching. Hitting has abanded them in the postseason and some turnover will so some good they have great prospects.

I see Tori Hunter is a tad testy as he wasn't given much choice and left the Angels then they go and drop big bucks on Hamilton. As a Tiger fan I'm happy to have Hunter but I think he needs to realize he is no Josh Hamilton.
