The Rangers finally got their catcher, reportedly cutting a deal with the Milwaukee Brewers for Jonathan Lucroy.

It appears Rangers have landed Lucroy. Not certain if there is pitching involved in deal. I expect Gallo ends up in MIL. — Evan Grant (@Evan_P_Grant) August 1, 2016

Lucroy, a 30-year-old who is regarded as one of the top five catchers in the game offensively and defensively, is under club control through 2017 at $5 million.

Lucroy later confirmed the news himself with a tweet.

Now, moving on to the @Rangers let's take this bad boy to the 'ship! Really excited and can't wait to get after it! — Jonathan Lucroy (@JLucroy20) August 1, 2016

The Rangers traded away prospects Lewis Brinson and Luis Ortiz, according to Grant. The Rangers also acquired relief pitcher Jeremy Jeffress in the deal.

SportsDay Rangers Insider Evan Grant recently broke down how Lucroy can help the Rangers:

"He's an excellent pitch framer, who could potentially help Rangers pitchers get a few more calls on the edges of the plate. Doesn't sound like much, but turning more counts in the Rangers' favor might lead to more chases by opponents and can change the complexion of a start."

The Rangers were looking for a catcher in the offseason but never got a deal done. They have been relying on the trio of Robinson Chirinos, Bobby Wilson and Bryan Holaday behind the plate.

Lucroy is a .284 hitter batting .299 this season with 13 home runs and 50 RBIs.
