MLB Trade Rumors: Corey Kluber is being acquired by the Texas Rangers from the Cleveland Indians, per multiple reports. Kluber, who turns 34 in April, is a two-time American League Cy Young Award winner, in 2014 and 2017, and finished 3rd in the balloting in 2016 and 2018. He missed most of last season due to injuries, is due $17.5 million in 2020, and has an $18 million team option for 2021.
No word yet on what the Rangers are giving up in this deal, but I would assume it would be at least one of the Rangers young crop of starting pitchers, which features Joe Palumbo, Kolby Allard and Brock Burke.
