DeGrom to Rangers

DeGrom will be great when he pitches and likely have at least 1 sizable DL stretch.  Still don't see the Rangers on Seattle's level, much less the Astros. 

I am hoping for the O's to sign Bassitt.  I would think that chance takes a hit because Mets are much likelier to sign Bassitt, especially if they miss on Verlander.

The Rangers are paying about 100 million a each year forte next 5 years for Seeger, Semien and Degrom that is just insane to me.  

I guess if they make the playoffs, it won’t be insane.  But they only improved from 60 to 68 wins after signing Semien and Seager last year, despite getting 9.9 rWAR from those two.  Their Pythag was much better though at 77 wins.  So maybe deGrom pushes them to 82 wins if he’s healthy.  They’ll still need to find a few more to be a playoff team.

I actually am interested by this move and maybe it makes more sense than a 2 year deal.  Say he's hurt for 2 out of the next 5 years at significant amounts.  Maybe his 2 years are the first two years or last two. What the Rangers did was spread that risk.

Or compound it.
