Josh Hamilton is returning to Texas. Expectations should be tempered.
Josh Hamilton trade: The Texas Rangers and the Anaheim Angels are reportedly continuing to work on a trade that would send Josh Hamilton to the Rangers for nothing. Hamilton is owed $83 million for the 2015-17 seasons, and while reports vary on what Texas will pick up, the high figure has been $15 million. Evan Grant says he believes the actual amount will be "far less than $15 million."
There's been excitement over this. Twitter exploded. There was much discussion about Hamilton's return here on LSB.
