    Rangers slugger Josh Hamilton said Friday that he's pleased with the progress he's made in counseling since his alcohol relapse more than three weeks ago and that he isn't concerned about his long-term contract situation.

    Hamilton also said he doesn't believe that he owes the club any kind of hometown discount.

    "The Rangers have done a lot for me, but I've got a question for y'all: Have I done a lot for the Rangers? I think I've given them everything I've had," Hamilton said. "I don't think anybody can say I haven't. When it comes down to it, people don't understand, fans don't understand, this is a business, this is an entertainment business.

    "I love Texas. I love my fans. I love fans of the Rangers. I love the organization. I love my teammates. I love everything about it. But I'm not going to sit here and say that I owe the Rangers. I don't feel like I owe the Rangers."
