6 Hrs Texas Rangers Elvis Andrus went 5-for-5 with two RBI to help the Rangers beat the Tigers 7-2 on Saturday night. Andrus got the Rangers on the board first when he singled and then later scored on a passed ball in the bottom of the opening inning. He would later add a triple, a double and two more singles, also tallying two steals. The talented shortstop is hitting .282/.328/.350 with 12 stolen bases in 42 games played this season. | 2 Days Texas Rangers Elvis Andrus has hit safely in 12 of 15 games this month. After scuffling out of the gate (.250/.291/.317 in April), Andrus has shown signs of adapting his timing. His OBP in May is over .350. After posting a career high .378 slugging percentage in 2012, Andrus has seen that number tumble to .321 entering play on Thursday. Of course, nobody drafted him as a slugger. The two-time All-Star already has almost half as many steal this year (10) as he did last (21), and he's only been picked off once. We're not concerned with him. | Daily baseball is all the rage in the fantasy sports world, so I will be covering the game a couple of times a week here at BaseballGuys.com.

On Tuesday and [...] | 1 Month Texas Rangers Rangers signed SS Elvis Andrus to an eight-year, $120 million contract extension. The deal carries a total value of $146.275 million if you include what's left on Andrus' current contract and the $15 million vesting option for 2023. Andrus has a rolling opt-out clause that can be used in either 2018 or 2019. The 24-year-old shortstop is a great defender and baserunner, and he's made positive strides offensively. He officially signed off on the extension Thursday at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. | 2 Months Texas Rangers CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that Elvis Andrus could earn a maximum of $146.275 million as part of his new agreement with the Rangers. This includes the $11.25 million he will make over the next two seasons and his new eight-year, $120 million extension, which includes a $15 million vesting option for 2023. The 24-year-old shortstop has the right to opt out of the deal after either 2018 or 2019, so it could end up being something closer to a four-year, $60 million extension. And the Rangers are pretty confident that he'll eventually use that opt-out. | |
