The Texas Rangers signed Elvis Andrus to an eight-year $118 million deal in 2015. The 29-year-old shortstop has played nine seasons in Arlington, but does have an opt out clause in his contract after the 2018 season.

The beloved shortstop had a career year with the Rangers last season. Andrus hit .297 with a career-high 20 home runs and 88 RBIs and 25 stolen bases in 158 games. He had never hit more than eight homers in a season heading into 2017.

The two-time All-Star finished with a career-high 4.7 WAR last season.
