After a career year in 2016, the Texas Rangers decided to give Rougned Odor a long-term extension. The deal was a six-year extension that is worth $49.5 million and lasts through the 2022 season.
At first it seemed like a steal for Texas, but Odor has failed to find consistency this season. Through 35 games Odor is hitting .194 with six home runs and 16 RBI. He has struck out 31 times with just six walks.
Last season Odor hit .271 with 33 home runs and 88 RBI in 150 games. His strikeout to walk ratio was still horrendous, but when you’re producing it’s not a big deal.
