The Rangers saved their biggest pitching signing of the winter for Super Bowl Sunday.
Or more appropriately: They signed their biggest pitcher.
Big Bartolo Colon, king of the pitching GIF, and the Rangers have been engaged in significant talks on a minor league contract the club announced Sunday afternoon.
"Bartolo brings a track record of durability and success in the Major Leagues," general manager Jon Daniels said. "He pounds the strike zone and provides quality competition for our rotation. Welcome to Texas, Big Sexy!"
Colon, who turns 45 in May, is looking to pitch in his 22nd season.
