Nelson Cruz, who agreed to a two-year, $14 million deal with the Rangers this month, will make just $5 million in 2012.
His backloaded contract will pay him a $500,000 signing bonus and an increased salary of $10.5 million in 2013.
There are also incentives in his contract that can raise his 2013 salary by $500,000 in relation to plate appearances.
