The hot stove may finally be heating up. One of the highest prized free agents of this winter is off the market. Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported Thursday night that the Brewers landed the outfielder. The deal is reported to be for $80 million over five years.
The Texas Rangers were rumored to be highly interested in Lorenzo Cain, who would’ve bolstered the current Texas outfield. Cain is a solid two-way player who can handle the bat and play reliable defense.
General manager Jon Daniels has downplayed that Texas would play at the top of the free agent market this winter.
