MLB Rumors: Jose Leclerc and the Texas Rangers have agreed to terms on a contract extension, per Evan Grant. Leclerc, 25, has just over two years of service time, and was slated to make close to league minimum this year, and would be eligible for arbitration after 2019.
Leclerc established himself as one of the best relievers in baseball last year, putting up a 1.56 ERA and a 1.90 FIP. He has always had closer stuff, with the question being whether is control would ever allow him to fully harness that stuff.
