According to MLB Network's Jon Morosi, negotiations between left-hander Martin Perez's representation and the Rangers don't seem to be progressing as some would have thought at the outset of free agency.
The Rangers have until Thursday at 4 p.m. CT to extend the $19.65 million qualifying offer to Perez, which they will "likely" do if they can't come to an agreement by the deadline.
Perez, 31, was named to his first All-Star roster in 2021. He was 12-8 with a career-low 2.89 ERA and 1.26 WHIP in 32 starts.
