FRISCO, Texas -- Just a few years ago, Josh Hamilton ruled the American League.
These days, no one knows if he’ll ever play again.
This much we do know: If Hamilton plays another season it’ll be for the Texas Rangers.
The Rangers released Hamilton, the 2010 AL MVP, on Tuesday, a move Texas needed to make before Sept. 1 because doing so allows the club to re-sign him to a minor league contract and promote him to the big leagues before May 15 of next season.
