Two reports say Texas Rangers pitcher Jacob deGrom told the team before Monday’s trade deadline that he wants to remain in Texas. The right-hander, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, has a full no-trade clause in his contract. DeGrom addresses public speculation that the Rangers, which have been struggling, were contacted by at least one other club regarding his availability. In response to questions about whether Texas offered him any specific terms as part of a potential trade discussion, deGrom said he would not provide details. The reports describe deGrom as not confirming or elaborating on negotiations, but indicating his preference to stay with the Rangers. The no-trade clause also limits his ability to be traded without his consent. Overall, the information presented centers on deGrom’s stated desire to remain with the Rangers and his refusal to comment on any particular deal-related specifics amid ongoing trade-deadline chatter.
