ARLINGTON, Texas -- Unlike a year ago, Texas Rangers general manager Jon Daniels is headed to baseball's Winter Meetings Sunday through Thursday in Orlando with money in his pocket and shooting for a Texas-sized free-agent prized: Cliff Lee. Daniels had nothing new to report regarding negotiations with the hotly sought-after left-hander, who figures to narrow his decision this week to the Rangers and New York Yankees. Whether Lee makes his decision during the four-day meetings will keep everyone's attention. "He’s at a pretty unique spot right now in that he’s got a tremendous decision to make with a lot of -- I don’t know how many -- but a number of very quality options of which we think we’re certainly right there near or at the top of the list," Daniels said. "I couldn’t tell you exactly what is going to go into his decision-making process, but he and his family have a pretty unique opportunity to make a decision for their long-term future. He’ s going to take his time and make his call." Daniels and the Rangers have met with Lee twice since the end of the World Series. "I don’t want to get into too much detail...but I think in general he enjoyed his time here," Daniels said. "I’m not sure we were on his short list before he came here, but he had a good experience. He expressed a like for the community, our players, the organization. Obviously, he was part of something pretty special." Daniels said the club won't be fully focused on Lee, although he acknowleged that with Lee likely to command a salary of $20 million or more, how the Rangers proceed with other needs in the free-agent market will somewhat be dictated by Lee's decision. Daniels said he had no knowledge of Lee's timetable. Here are other statements from Jon Daniels regarding the Winter Meetings and other issues: Other priorities beyond Cliff Lee: Pitching’s No. 1 and the DH, additional bat No. 2, and beyond that there are a number of areas we can always add some depth. This year, a lot of our better young players that won’t be on the big-league club, a few of them will be at Frisco and Round Rock, but quite a few of the next wave, so to speak, that we are real excited about are at the A-ball [level], so we’re going to have to do a little more work than we’ve had to do to add some depth." Matt Treanor: "There's a pretty good chance Matt will be back. He wants to be back and we want him back. I don't know that it will happen in the next day or so, but I'm pretty confident Matt will be back in a Rangers uniform." Vladimir Guerrero: "We’re still talking. One of our primary needs is a DH. We talked about like with Vlad was a traditional DH or whether we wanted to get somebody that is a little more versatile defensively, maybe allow some of our other guys some time off their feet and allow wash the flexibility with the roster to move some guys through that position, but Vlad is certainly high on the list. We continue to talk with he and his agent." Mitch Moreland as starting first baseman: "I don’t see any reason why he couldn’t do it. But, that’s going to be on him. He’ll have the opportunity to demonstrate that he can. If he were to win the job, which is certainly our hope, we don’t see any reason why he can’t be a full-time player." 資料來源:ESPN Dallas分部 http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/texas-rangers/ Lee的爭奪戰繼續歹戲拖棚暫板面中~~ "更多土地"小弟明年要開季先發一壘手??!!(不簽Konerko嗎??打線感覺沒變強~~) -- 2010 Texas Rangers Postseason Franchise Roster (SP)Cliff Lee (C)Benjie Molina (1B)Mitch Moreland (2B)Ian Kinsler (SS)Elvis Andrus (3B)Michael Young (LF)David Murphy (CF)Josh Hamilton (RF)Nelson Cruz (DH)Vladimir Guerrero (SP)C.J.
