Rangers Extend JT Miller

The Rangers didn't so much extend JT Miller as kick his big raise two years down the road. Today they gave thir burgeoning star winger slash center a bridge deal.  The money is in the 2's for both years, which probably means Kreider is getting his bigger deal now.  That's age appropriate.  I think a better coach would have turned these two guys into more consistent forces by now, but that's just one of the team's problems right now.  Good to have JT locked up, though.

Don't know where to put this but Blake Rutherford was promoted to Pulaski.

Good news on Blake. It was just a matter of getting the timing down, after not playing for a while.

Same with Mason Williams.

As far as Miller goes, they still have him for at least 1 year after this deal, before he becomes an UFA. If he improves a bit, and gets to a 25 goal, 55 point guy, he will get his long-term deal then.

Again, we can blame the baseball ops guys all day for a lot of stuff but ownership meddles more than you think.

As I said on the other thread, if that's the case why dont they look for other jobs like Theo did.

Theo didn't look for other jobs, the Cubs handed him a blank check.

Should there be something at least somewhat comparable for Cashman if he was interested?

Where I disagree with the point is that Yankee job, like all jobs, had advantages sand disadvantages, and net net the former outweighs the latter. My guess is Cashman feels the same way.
