Rangers open to trading Corey Seager to shed payroll

Corey Seager is reportedly available for trade from the Texas Rangers, who are looking to shed payroll. The 32-year-old shortstop has six years and $189 million remaining on his contract. Last season, Seager played only 102 games due to a hamstring pull and an emergency appendectomy in September. Despite injuries, he posted an .860 OPS (highest among shortstops) and a 151 OPS+ in 2025, reflecting his consistent career slash line of .289/.362/.509/.871.
