Rangers considering options at first base/DH

ARLINGTON -- When Jon Daniels first became the Rangers' general manager 12 years ago, he said he was asked the same two questions almost every day.

"When are you going to get some pitching and how old are you," Daniels said. "We tried to do something about the pitching."

Daniels, who will turn 40 later this year, no longer gets asked about his age. The biggest question coming at him this offseason is what are the Rangers going to do about first base/designated hitter.

The sub-plot in that is if the club will re-sign Mike Napoli, although Daniels is adamant about not discussing specific free agents.
