Shortstop Corey Seager and the Texas Rangers are in agreement on a 10-year, $325 million deal.
Seager, 27, batted .295/.364/.501 with 100 home runs in 609 games from 2016 to 2021.
The COVID-19-shortened season in 2020 marked Seager's revival. He batted .307/.358/.585 with 15 home runs in 52 regular-season games, then won the MVP award for both the NLCS and the World Series, batting a combined .347/.439/.816 while helping the Dodgers to their first championship in 32 years.
Seager got off to a slow start in 2021, batting .265/.355/.425 through 36 games, then fractured his right hand on a hit by pitch on May 15 and missed nearly 11 weeks. Shortly after returning in late July, however, Seager began to turn around his season, ultimately posting a 1.019 OPS with 28 extra-base hits over his last 56 games.
