Kennedy to the Rangers, per report
Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty ImagesMLB Rumors: Ian Kennedy and the Texas Rangers have agreed to terms on a minor league deal, per reports. The 36 year old righthander will have an invite to the major league camp. Per Mark Feinsand, he will get $2.15M plus incentives if he makes the club.
Kennedy is one of those guys who it seems like has spent a lot of his career in the penumbra of Texas Rangers talk, as someone who the Rangers would/should have interest in early in his career, might have interest in as a free agent, and then might be willing to take on as a salary dump. Like Ivan Nova, he’s someone who always seemed like has always been on the radar as a possible Ranger acquisition.
