Rougned Odor is one of the brightest young players in the MLB, and the Texas Rangers made sure he would be a part of their organization for years to come.
On March 25, the Rangers inked Odor to a six-year extension worth $49.5 million. While Texas paid the 23-year-old second basemen handsomely for his services, money wasn’t the only compensation involved in the new deal.
According to the Dallas Morning News’ Evan Grant, the Rangers appeased Odor by including a perk that evidently struck his fancy.
Given his major pay day and interests being met, it’s safe to say Odor will be stable in Texas for the foreseeable future.
