The Rangers agreed to a trade for Indians starting pitcher Corey Kluber on Sunday, according to the MLB Network's Jon Heyman. Cleveland's return in the deal has not been announced.
Texas will owe Kluber $17.5 million in 2020. He will earn $18 million in 2021 if he pitches 160 innings next season, per The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.
Kluber spent the first nine years of his career with the Indians. He has a 98–58 career record, sporting a 3.16 ERA. Kluber has finished in the top three of the American League Cy Young voting four times, winning the award in 2014 and 2017.
