After spending 12 years with the Rangers, Michael Young said during a press conference on Monday that he has "no relationship" with the team's front office.
Texas traded Young to Philadelphia over the weekend. Young waived his no-trade clause to permit the deal.
"I can't say there's a relationship there or a good relationship there. Well, no there's no relationship there, but that's fine with me," Young said. "My relationship is with the guys in uniform and what they've meant to me."
Young's issue with the staff stems in large part to what happened two years ago when Adrian Beltre signed a free-agent contract. He and management struggled to communicate clearly and Young's name came up in trade discussions that offseason.
