Summary

The Texas Rangers have released utilityman Sam Haggerty after designating him for assignment. The 32-year-old struggled offensively in limited playing time this season, slashing .159/.213/.182 with an elevated strikeout rate of 34.0%. The Rangers still owe him the remaining money on his $1.25MM contract, and any team can sign him for the prorated league minimum, which would be subtracted from Texas's obligation.
