Rangers Ink Jones - Bleh

Well, the Rangers' have inked Andrew Jones to a 500K MiL contract with ST invite. The contract includes 1Million in bonuses but he can only realize the bulk of them if he wins a starting job.

As an interesting side note, he declined a similar offer from the NYY, to get the chance to work with Jaramillo, held in high esteem by both Boras and Jones. It was also noted that he appeared "slimmed down" in his workout last week with Rudy and his knee seemed healthy. Jaramillo must have also put in a good word for him related to his workout/motivation/coachability for the deal to get done.
