"I think Yu Darvish will get either a five or six-year deal from the Rangers, and I think the dollars will be, annually, between $10 and $11 million. He'll end up with a little bit more salary-wise than Daisuke Matsuzaka did, and I think that's a big deal in terms of the Japanese market defining things. With Prince, they're not going to go eight years, but I think the Rangers are going to have to be willing to go to maybe a seven-year guarantee with an escape clause for the player somewhere in the contract, and maybe an escape clause for the club. It's going to take some kind of creative thinking to get a deal done. The Rangers were very impressed with how he looked, and he is very athletic for a guy his size, but when you are that big, there are questions about whether you'll break down quicker than other guys."
