Rangers cut ties with Pudge amid payroll pressures
The Texas Rangers end Ivan Rodriguez’s tenure by not offering salary arbitration to the 10 time All Star catcher. Owner Tom Hicks cites economic musts as the club seeks to trim a 107 million dollar payroll and avoids potential 12 million dollar arbitration. Rodriguez cannot be re signed before May 1 and no compensation is due if he signs elsewhere. The team also did not arbitrate Kenny Rogers or Todd Hollandsworth while continuing talks with Rogers.
