ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Rangers general manager Jon Daniels was given a one-year contract extension Tuesday despite a 26-43 start that left Texas with the worst record in the major leagues.
The 29-year-old Daniels, who became the youngest GM in major league history when he replaced John Hart in October 2005, now has a contract through the 2009 season.
"I take this as a show of confidence in the management team that is here now," Daniels said. "We know we are judged on wins and losses and the standings every day. That doesn't necessarily define all the good work going on in the organization."
