Really? We didn't sign Oswalt over 5m? I didn't care all that much until reading that. We should have signed him.

From mlb.com

Rangers, Oswalt agree on one-year deal
The Rangers signed Oswalt to a one-year contract worth $5 million with another $1 million in incentives, according to industry sources. The club has yet to make an official announcement. Oswalt was a free agent who has not faced Major League hitters since the end of last season.
