The AL champion Texas Rangers have introduced Adrian Beltre after agreeing on a $96 million, six-year contract with the All-Star third baseman. 

Beltre became a free agent after turning down a $10 million player option to stay with Boston.

A two-time Gold Glove winner, Beltre hit .321 with 28 homers, 102 RBIs and 49 doubles in 154 games during his only season with Red Sox. He was an All-Star for the first time in his 13-season career.

We all know that the Rangers have a really good team. I want to win,” Beltre said Wednesday. “The team is willing to do whatever it takes to get to the next step. That’s one of the factors to make my decision to come here easier.”

Beltre gets $14 million this year, $15 million in 2012, $16 million in 2013, $17 million in 2014, $18 million in 2015 and $16 million in 2016. The Rangers can void the final season if Beltre fails to have either 1,200 plate appearances in 2014-15 combined or 600 in 2015.
