Walk off double today.
He's been to the plate 26 times so far: 2 HR, 2 doubles, 2 singles, 4 walks.
The Rangers will pay him ~$2M this year and and owe him a total of ~$7M for this year and two more.
And the Angels paid $76M for this to happen.
I can't wrap my mind around that.
If Josh had not said "has to be Texas," and the 28 other teams were aware that they could acquire Josh Hamilton for 3 years and $7M, surely somebody would've been willing to give up something of at least some value, right?
He probably can't keep this pace up, but he doesn't appear to have lost much (if any) bat speed.
It's just so weird.
