Texas Rangers Seeking Contract Extension with Rougned Odor

According to Jon Heyman, the Texas Rangers and Rougned Odor are talking an extension in the range of six-years $52.5 million. Odor hit .271/.296/.502 with a career-high 33 home runs and 88 RBI in 150 games in 2016.

The 23-year-old second baseman is heading into his fourth season with the Rangers. He has become an important player in the middle of the order. Odor had a 1.9 WAR in 2015, and then topped that last season with a 2.4 WAR.

Odor is represented by Beverly Hills Sports Council, the same agency that got All-Star second baseman Jason Kipnis a long-term extension.
