By2/22 16:19: According to T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com, he tweets, “Club officials say right now there is a 100 percent probability Khalil Greene’s replacement will be internal.”
2/22 09:10: Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports reports that infielder Khalil Greene will not report to the Texas Rangers’ camp and could miss significant time because of anxiety issues. The Rangers planned to address the issue on Monday.
Unless the Rangers want to promote from within, the only prominent free agent infielder available is Felipe Lopez.
Greene agreed to a one-year, $750,000 contract with the Rangers in January. Last season, Greene went on the disabled list twice for social anxiety disorder.
Greene, 30, hit 6 home runs and had a batting average of .200 with a .272 on-base percentage in 77 games while with the Cardinals in 2009. He made $6.5 million in the last year of a two-year $11 million contract. Greene replaces Omar Vizquel, who signed with the Chicago White Sox earlier this off season.
