UNDATED (AP) – The Texas Rangers have added a two-time Cy Young Award winner to their starting rotation.  The Indians have traded Corey Kluber  to the Rangers for outfielder Delino DeShields  and pitching prospect Emmanuel Clase.  Kluber is coming off his worst season since 2012 as broken arm limited him to seven starts. He was 2-3 with a 5.80 ERA this year, one season after recording his first 20-win season.  Kluber is 98-58 with a 3.16 ERA and 1,461 strikeouts in 1,341 2/3 innings over 208 major league games, including 203 starts.  DeShields stole 24 bases last season while batting .249 with 32 RBIs.
