ARLINGTON -- The Rangers have agreed to a one-year, $8 million contract with reliever Eric Gagne. The agreement is pending a physical but the Rangers have already checked out his medical reports and are satisfied that he is healthy again. Gagne, 30, is a right-hander who has spent the past eight seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was the 2003 Cy Young winner who has been limited to 16 games over the past two years because of back and elbow surgery. He had 158 saves between 2002-04. 一年合約，$8 million簽下Eric Gagne，並且看了健康檢查報告後很滿意健康的 剛爺回來了～～ Gagne，三十歲～～2003年CY得主，並在02~04年拿下158 次SV~~ Although the Rangers are deep with young relievers, club officials view Gagne as one of the few free agents left on the market who could make a serious impact on a team. He could be an eighth-inning setup reliever or he could take over as closer. That would allow the Rangers to use Akinori Otsuka in the eighth inning. The Rangers also view Gagne as a mentor to their young relievers. 是說我們這樣可以加深牛棚的強度～～因為剛爺可以在八局左右擔任 setup的角色獲釋在最後擔任關門的角色～～大塚的角色也將更靈活～～ 也許會變成雙保險戰略～ Gagne is the second free agent the Rangers have come to terms with in the past two days. They are expected to hold a news conference on Tuesday afternoon to introduce center fielder Kenny Lofton, who has also agreed to a one-year deal. They also spent Tuesday meeting with free agent pitcher Mark Mulder, who is also being pursued by the Arizona Diamondbacks. 另外今天會跟Mark Mulder會面～～～Arizona Diamondback好像也正在想辦法和他談 再看看結果囉～～～ -- 2007- Rangers and Spurs GoGoGo 重金徵求 Rangers版的進版畫面（10/25~11/30） --
