With Greinke being traded to the Brewers, the Rangers are only left with one real quality pitcher to pursue. Matt Garza is the last quality pitcher on the market, and in my opinion, if they are unable to make that trade work, the Rangers should do nothing in terms of adding pitching. The Rangers will be in the hunt this season, and by the all-star break there are always teams out there trying to unload salaries. I believe they can pick up another quality pitcher, and have the luxury of seeing how that pitcher has been for the first half of the season if they just stand firm with what's in place now.
It looks as though Vlad will be back, it's just a matter of finalizing the details. Considering the other options out there at DH, I can't really complain about bring Vlad back. The Cliff Lee fall-out has Ranger fans around here leaving this team for dead. REALLY? I think this team will win more games this season than last, and if they can pick up another pitcher around the trade deadline, they could be in a position to make another World Series run. I'd like nothing more than to see Cliff Lee pitch in the ballpark this year!! April, could you please come faster!!!
