November 22, 201114 yr Two years, $14.5 million including buyout. Neftali Feliz likely to join Rangers' rotation.
November 22, 201114 yr I wonder if they're pessimistic about CJ Wilson coming back, making this move a priority?
November 22, 201114 yr Author I really don't agree with them moving Feliz to the rotation, but eh. Yeah, I'm kind of shaking my head that they would move their young flamethrower to the rotation to have a 37 year old close games, but like Mystikol said, Texas is probably anticipating C.J. Wilson signing elsewhere.

November 22, 201114 yr Yes, I think? Let me try again: On MLBTR, there is an article. It says that the Rangers don't anticipate signing anyone to a nine-figure deal, AKA $100MM++. This can reasonably be interpreted to say they are out of the CJ Wilson sweepstakes. With that in mind, it makes more sense to move Feliz to the rotation, since they have another void to fill if Wilson doesn't come back. Make sense?

Jon Heyman projects him getting $80M over 5 years and that's a brilliant prediction (matches what I said a few motnhs ago).

November 23, 201114 yr I know Nathan was lights out for many years, but over $7m a year for a RP who posted an ERA close to 5 last year is quite a lot.
