I like signing him to a MiLB deal. It allows him to try to make it back after his injuries, without being rushed. It keeps him on the Rangers.

This is goodwill, IMO. Good karma.

Colby is far from a done deal to make the team.

Harrison and Colby are both crap shoots at this point -- wouldn't surprise me if we still go after another arm.

Agreed.

Neither Harrison, nor Colby will be effective in ST. Supposedly both are expected to be considered 100%, but I would confuse being 100% healthy with being 100% ready to be effective.

IIRC, neither had started their off-season throwing. I suspect once that begins we'll find out pretty quick how bad of shape the #5 spot is.

Keep an eye on Robbie Ross. Especially if it is deemed Harrison needs another 3-4 months. I could see Ross filling in the SP roll until mid-season... then either Harrison will be healthy or they make a trade.
