MLB Rumors: A Kris Bryant trade is of interest to the Texas Rangers, with the Chicago Cubs third baseman presenting a possible middle of the order righthanded impact bat for Texas, says Jon Morosi. Morosi also mentions the Colorado Rockies, Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals as teams with interest, but highlights the Rangers as one of the “most intriguing” options.
Bryant would give the Rangers an impact middle-of-the-order bat, something they’ve sought all offseason, without success. Bryant is under team control for two more years, and while he’s not cheap — he will make $18.
