Big news from Arlington and Valley Ranch tonight.
The Rangers have landed free-agent pitcher Kevin Millwood, according to Ft. Worth Star-Telegram reporter T.R. Sullivan. Also, according to the Dallas Morning News, embittered kicker Billy Cundiff was released by the Cowboys and replaced with rookie Shaun Suisham.
Last season, Millwood was 9-11 for the Cleveland Indians last year but also led the American League with a 2.86 ERA. He will likely be the Opening Day starting pitcher for Texas. The acquisition of Millwood gives the Rangers a much more formative rotation. Following him, the Rangers will have newly acquired Vincente Padilla and Adam Eaton, followed by Kameron Loe and Juan Dominguez.
Quite an improvement from last year.
As I predicted Saturday night, Cundiff was released for his poor performances over the last month. Ironically, in his first game back after missing the first half of the season, kicked a franchise record 56-yard field goal. However, since then, he missed a possible 34-yard game-winner against Denver, another against Washington, and two more against Carolina the second one was called back for running into the kicker).
