Texas Rangers Notes

I've double-checked multiple sources on these, but feel free to let me know if you have any questions on the information below. As a side note, I've noticed a few instances where the in game salary doesn't include a signing bonus that is being distributed over the life of the contract. If the OOTP preference is to avoid including that for some reason (consistency?), then you can ignore the players marked with an * as that is the only issue with those players.

Cole Hamels - 2018 salary is $20M; should be $23.5M (2019 is correct)

Elvis Andrus - Each year of his 2018-2022 salary should have an additional $250k signing bonus. The final year (2023) is actually a vesting option requiring 550 PA in 2022 or 1100 PA in 2021-22. The salary is correct for that year.

Prince Fielder - He has technically been released from his contract, however I realize he likely has been left on contract in the game to capture the $9M the Rangers owe him through 2020.

*Mike Minor - has a $1M signing bonus distributed evenly over the 3 year deal at $333k per year.

Martin Perez - has a team option for 2019 (I think I saw that you can't add a 2nd option year, so if not that's cool). His 2020 option includes a $250k buyout, but he doesn't have a buyout in the game. Lastly, Perez is being projected to be ready for the start of the season, although he is on the DL for 4 weeks to start the game.

Rougned Odor - has a $2M signing bonus distributed from 2017-22 at $333k per year. He also has a $3M buyout on the 2023 season.

Darwin Barney - has been released by the Rangers

Cole Ragans (Texas AZL) - is undergoing TJ surgery and won't pitch in 2018

Erik Goeddel (Down East, A+) - has been released by the Rangers

Tim Lincecum - his contract is for $1M, not the minimum

Jesse Chavez (Round Rock, AAA) - he has a MiLB contract in OOTP, but he was signed to a $1M guaranteed deal that increases to $1.5M if he makes the 25-man roster, and various reports suggest he will.
