The idea of Josh Hamilton's time in Texas being over didn't seem so difficult to digest when I thought about it a few months ago.
Ever since that lackadaisical dropped fly ball in the final game of the regular season, I stared into a future of Rangers baseball that didn't involve one of the best all-around players in franchise history. If it was time to part ways, and Hamilton wanted to pick another team in free agency, I was prepared to fondly reflect on the memories and bid him farewell and good luck in the future.
That didn't exactly happen. Unfortunately, he made it personal.

At this year's winter meetings, we learned ... absolutely nothing
Here's what almost happened for the Texas Rangers at the week-long baseball winter meetings in Nashville, Tenn:
- They almost traded for Arizona's Justin Upton.
- They almost signed free-agent pitcher Zack Greinke.
- They almost traded Michael Young to the Phillies.
- They almost signed Josh Hamilton and almost watched Seattle pry him away (not sure how that works).
