Texas Rangers Release Outfielder; Former Top International Propsect


He was one of the top international prospects a few years ago.

The Texas Rangers have released outfielder Bayron Lora.

Lora received a $3.9 million signing bonus from the Rangers as part of the 2019 international class and has now been cut loose after being disciplined under MLB and MLBPA's joint domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse policy.

The twenty-year-old outfielder did not play for the Rangers last season after spending 2021 with the team's Dominican Summer League affiliate.

For his minor-league career, Lora holds a .218/.413/.814 triple slash line, with six home runs, 22 RBIs, 10 stolen bases and 34 runs scored over 147 at-bats.
