SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) ? Texas Rangers left-hander Derek Holland has agreed to a new five-year contract through the 2016 season that includes club options for two more seasons after that.
Holland won 16 games last season for the two-time defending American League champions. He allowed only two hits pitching into the eighth inning of Game 4 of the World Series against St. Louis. Texas announced the deal Tuesday morning.
Holland has a 27-22 record over three major league seasons in Texas, the team that drafted him in the 25th round of the 206 draft. He was 16-5 with a 3.95 ERA last season.
With Holland's deal, the Rangers have two 25-year-old starters under contract for a long period. Yu Darvish, the right-hander from Japan, is at the start of a six-year deal.
