Texas Rangers get catcher Luis Martinez in trade…

BASEBALL

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers have acquired catcher Luis Martinez from the San Diego Padres for minor league pitcher Ryan Kelly.

Martinez batted .203 (12 for 59) in 22 games for San Diego with one homer and 10 RBIs. He homered for his first big league hit on July 27 against Arizona. A 12th round draft pick in 2007, Martinez hit .323 at Triple-A Tucson in 58 games. He had one home run and 28 RBIs.

The Rangers added Martinez to the 40-man roster on Wednesday.

Kelly was 3-6 with a 3.95 ERA and nine saves in 40 appearances for Class-A Myrtle Beach last season. The 26-year-old right-hander will be assigned to Double-A San Antonio.

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Briefly: The Indians have agreed to a minor league contract with versatile free-agent infielder Andy LaRoche and invited him to spring training. He’ll have a chance to win the club’s utility infield job. … The Milwaukee Brewers have signed infielder Cesar Izturis and left-hander Juan Perez to minor-league contracts with invitations to spring training. The Brewers also invited catcher Anderson De La Rosa, left-hander Jed Bradley and right-hander Taylor Jungmann to spring training. … The Kansas City Royals have signed reliever Jose Mijares to a 1-year contract, giving manager Ned Yost another left-handed option late in games. The team announced the deal Wednesday. Terms were not disclosed.

A person familiar with the situation says the Chicago Cubs and outfielder Reed Johnson are closing in on a one-year contract. The Associated Press reported Johnson will be signed pending a physical. … … Creditors of the Los Angeles Dodgers are joining the team in urging a federal district judge not to halt implementation of a bankruptcy court order authorizing the Dodgers to begin a process for selling television rights to future games. In a filing Wednesday, the committee said there’s no guarantee that a sale of the team without the TV rights will result in Dodgers creditors being paid in full.

Dodgers near deal with Harang, agree to $6…

DALLAS — The Los Angeles Dodgers are nearing a deal with pitcher Aaron Harang and have agreed to a $6 million, two-year contract with utilityman Jerry Hairston Jr.

Harang, a 32-year-old right-hander, was 14-7 with a 3.64 ERA last season, his first with the San Diego Padres. He made $3.5 million, and the Padres paid $500,000 to void a $5 million player option he had exercised.

In a big league career that has included stops in Oakland (2002-03) and Cincinnati (2003-10), Harang is 95-94 with a 4.25 ERA.

Hairston hit .274 with one homer and seven RBIs this year to help the Milwaukee Brewers reach the NL championship series. He gets $2.25 million next year and $3.75 million in 2013.

Two East Coast teams could tempt Heath Bell

Heath BellHeath Bell(notes) has only been the full-time closer for the San Diego Padres for three seasons, but he’s closed the door for 134 games since then and gone to three All-Star games. Plus, he’s taken home the last two National League Rolaids Reliever of the Year awards. From 2010 to 2011, Bell saved 41 straight games, which is tied for the fifth-longest streak in MLB history. Now the free agent is looking around to see what other opportunities are out there.

Sirius Radio reports that Bell, a California native, prefers to stay on the West Coast and would like to sign on with the Padres, Los Angeles Angels or the Los Angeles Dodgers.

However, there are two teams on the East Coast that tempt the 34-year-old: the Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox, both of which are currently in need of a closer.
