Former MVP Sammy Sossa goes to Texas
By Stephen Lars
Appears as Sammy Sosa got an agreement on a minor league contract which seems completed by the end of the week.
Sosa is expected to come in to camp on a $500,000 incentive-laden Minor League contract in an attempt to show the Rangers he can be their around the clock designated hitter and occasional outfielder.
During the period of 1998-2001, Sosa hit 243 home runs. In 2002, Sosa also led the National League in home runs with 49 and led the Cubs to a division title in 2003 when he hit 40 home runs with 103 RBIs.
In order to pursue his return with the Rangers, Sosa will have to earn his spot with whom he made his major league debut with 18 years ago.
