The Texas Rangers announced Tuesday they traded relief pitcher Dennis Santana to the Atlanta Braves for cash considerations.
Santana, on the 40-man roster, was used as a set-up man in 2022.
This is the second trade the Rangers have made with Atlanta in a week. Last Wednesday, the Rangers acquired starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi and cash considerations for pitcher Kolby Allard.
Earlier on Tuesday, Rangers starting pitcher Martín Pérez accepted the qualifying offer extended by the Rangers, which is $19.65 million for the 2023 season. That keeps the left-hander out of free agency.
