Rangers sign Roy Oswalt

Rangers

The wizard is back in Texas, this time with the Texas Rangers, Dallas Morning News is reporting.  Oswalt’s contract is insentive based, if he get called up from the minor leagues by July 1st, he can earn up to 8 million this year.  If Oswalt makes 10 starts, he earns another million.  Roy Oswalt has been on the Rangers radar since the offseason, but once Rangers starting pitcher Neftali Feliz went on the DL, Oswalt became a priority.  Most Texans will remember Oswalt as the Ace of the Houston Astros, making the All Star game 3 times with the Stros.  Last season OSwalt pitched for the Phillies.  If OSwalt can be half the pitcher he once was, he’ll be a nice addition to the bottom of the Ranger rotation.
