MLB Trade Rumors: Martin Perez has been great for the Texas Rangers this year, and on a one year, $4 million contract, he’s been talked about as one of the best available trade targets for teams looking to add starting pitching at the trade deadline.
Per Buster Olney, however, the Rangers will “probably only move him” at the deadline at the end of this month if they get a “difference-making” return, citing the Rangers’ desire to show significant improvement this year after 2021’s 102 loss season.
This is not all that surprising, I don’t think.
