| Will Texas Trade Mench? Even though they just resigned him to a $2.8 million deal, there's lot of rumors around that the Rangers are going to wind up dealing Mench. If you add the fact that they're in talks with Danny Bautista, it certainly seems to be a possibility.
It makes sense to me. In four years with the Rangers, Mench has put up good but not great numbers [.277, 68 HR, 215 RBI in 423 games], but its the 800% increase in pay that really has got to make one scratch their head. How do numbers like that possibly warrant such a huge salary hike? |
