Arizona Diamondbacks Interested In Rangers Relievers
6 years agoThe Arizona Diamondbacks are reportedly interested in acquiring Texas Rangers relief pitchers Keone Kela and Jose Leclerc. The Diamondbacks' bullpen currently ranks third in the MLB with a 2.97 ERA, so the team is just looking to bolster the unit for a potential postseason run. Kela, who has functioned as the Rangers closer this season, has pitched to a 3.18 ERA and a 41/12 K/BB ratio with 23 saves. Leclerc, who works in middle relief, holds a 2.06 ERA and a 51/18 K/BB ratio. Both would be boosts to the Diamondbacks pen, however, would hold little trade value as long as Brad Boxberger is seeing saves.
