Rangers, Kinsler fail to Reach Extension

Texas has failed to reach a contract extension with 2B Ian Kinsler by his Opening Day deadline after they squabbled over money regarding the potential six-year deal.  He will make $7 million this season and has a $10 million option for 2013, although the Rangers had hoped to sign him before Yankees 2B Robinson Cano gets an extension of his own and inflates the second base market.  Kinsler batted .255 with 32 homers, 77 runs batted in, 30 stolen bases, and a .355 on-base percentage last season.
