The have had a quiet offseason so far, and there has been talk that payroll limitations would make it unlikely that they would make a serious run at bringing back starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery. Jon Heyman’s latest column, however, says the Rangers “seem likely to be back in play” for Montgomery.
Why? Well, according to Heyman, there’s been “progress made” regarding the ongoing Bally Sports dispute, and he references a potential $90 million payment to the Rangers as part of a resolution. That’s shy of the $110 million that reports have indicated Texas would have been due prior to the Bally bankruptcy, but its better than nothing, right?
