Friday a.m. Rangers things

Yo.

Jeff Wilson has a story on Matt Harrison, saying that Harrison's $55 million contract won't keep him from trying to keep on improving.

Anthony Andro has a piece about the Rangers locking up their young starting pitchers long-term, showing a commitment to this group they've developed.

Richard Durrett continues his look at the Rangers' positional situations heading into spring training with a review of the Rangers' bench situation.

Wilson has some notes on Derek Holland in the WBC, the Rangers expecting not to take any cases to arbitration, and the unlikelihood of any other long-term deals being struck this offseason.

Evan Grant says that Holland pitching in the WBC makes it more likely he ends up on the disabled list and that he won't reach 200 innings pitched this year.
