Free-agent infielder Brock Holt agrees to minor league deal with MLB's Texas Rangers

ARLINGTON, Texas -- Free-agent infielder Brock Holt has agreed to a minor league contract with the Texas Rangers that includes an invitation to major league spring training.

Holt would get a $1.75 million, one-year contract if added to the 40-man roster. The 32-year-old Texas native would have the opportunity to earn an additional $750,000 in performance bonuses.

Holt was one of three players Texas added Friday on minor league deals with big league spring training invites, joining catcher/first baseman John Hicks and left-handed pitcher Hyeon-jong Yang.

Holt split last season with Milwaukee and Washington after the previous seven years in Boston, where he was an All-Star with the Red Sox in 2015, and was part of their World Series championship team in 2018.
