T.R. Sullivan has a story up about where the Rangers stand in terms of their offseason shopping. He indicates the Rangers have $5-7 million available to spend, with the priority being a middle of the order hitter to DH, but who could potentially play some first base.
Sullivan runs down a list of ten candidates, almost all of whom are past-their-prime big names...basically, the Rangers appear more interested in a vet with playoff experience who might have some tread left on the tires than in a Ryan Garko-type younger role player.
