Rangers Could Be Players For Greinke

The Rangers tried to acquire Zack Greinke in December 2010 and lost out to the Brewers.

Less than two years later, Texas might have another chance at the right-hander.

Milwaukee will reportedly discuss trading Greinke if they can't come to terms on a long-term deal soon.

Greinke, who is eligible for free agency at the end of the season, has an 8-2 record this season with 2.81 ERA.

Sources: Brewers May Move Greinke

The Brewers claim that they have not made a decision on whether or not they'll trade Zack Greinke, but two rival executives say he'll be moved if a long-term contract isn't reached by the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline.

Greinke, 8-2 with a 2.81 ERA, is eligible for free agency at the end of the season.

"They're definitely expecting to move him unless something changes and they re-sign him," one rival executive said.

The Brewers fell to 7 1/2 games behind the Reds in the NL Central after losing to Cincinnati on Tuesday night.
