Texas Rangers rumors: Chris Martin may be on the move as the MLB trade deadline approaches. With the deadline being tomorrow, July 31, at 3 p.m. Central, there are folks in Twitter saying Martin has left the Rangers bullpen. Martin is both a quality relief pitcher and a free agent at season’s end, making him a strong candidate to be moved.
The 33 year old Martin has a 3.08 ERA and 4.02 FIP in 38 IP this year. He was signed to a two year deal by the Rangers after the 2017 season, having spent the previous two seasons pitching in Japan.
