Default Texas Rangers sign Yu Darvish

Darvish gets six years and $60 million. Can he live up to the hype? Should be fun to watch.

I give him two fantastic years before his elbow explodes then two years of rehab and finishes those final two years of the contract even better than the first two years.

Barring an injury, he should have a solid career. The Rangers know how to bring arms along. The rich get richer.

i highly doubt he will be worth the 110+ million investment over 6 years. however, getting that kind of talent at that stage of his career without giving up prospects is a rare opportunity.

i imagine the increase of japanese fan attention and other peripheral benefits will make this signing worth the risk for texas
