It doesn't appear as though the Rangers will sign free-agent first baseman Prince Fielder. Texas co-owner Bob Simpson didn't completely rule out the possibility, but he would prefer to re-sign Josh Hamilton to a multiyear deal than add the first baseman. "I think he's, given our set of cards, too pricey," Simpson said. "And if that were to change, I guess they would look at that harder. But right now I think he's priced himself out of what we could do." Fans will continue to dream about adding Fielder, but Simpson has at least one other priority in mind. "We've got guys, frankly, like Josh Hamilton that I would love to see re-signed," Simpson said. "And frankly, my personal preference at this moment would be to re-sign him instead of helping Fielder. We (the ownership group) could all debate that."
