Red Sox: Corey Kluber deal sets bar for David Price trade

We’re beginning to get clarity on what the Boston Red Sox could expect in return for trading David Price and the outlook is underwhelming.

The Texas Rangers upgraded their starting rotation by acquiring Corey Kluber from the Cleveland Indians over the weekend. The former Cy Young Award winner is coming off an injury-riddled season in which he produced the worst results of his career. Sound familiar?

Kluber turns 34 years old in April, the same age Price is now. While his contract isn’t nearly as expensive as Price’s, Kluber isn’t cheap. He’s owed $17.
