Rangers Complete Minor League Deal With Sammy Sosa

by @ 11:07 am. Filed under 2007 Rangers

The Rangers wrapped up a minor league deal with slugger Sammy Sosa.  It looks like he’ll get a base salary of $500k if he makes the 40 man and I’m sure there’s a bunch of money he can make if he hits certain milestones.

If Sosa makes the team, he’ll primarily be used as a designated hitter although it wouldn’t surprise me if he finds time out in right field as a fifth outfielder.  Sosa is 12 homeruns away from becoming the fifth player in major league history to hit 600 homeruns so that alone should sell some tickets as he gets closer to the milestone.
