Rangers prospects questioned for allegedly sexually hazing underage teammate

Eight Texas Rangers prospects were questioned by police in the Dominican Republic after a video showed a group of players sexually assaulting an underage teammate in a hazing incident that targeted players new to the team’s Dominican complex, sources familiar with the case told Yahoo Sports.

While prosecutors in the Dominican Republic have yet to press charges for the alleged assault, they told the court they intend to charge at least four players who held down a teammate and masturbated him, sources told Yahoo Sports.

Among those expected to be charged are the younger brother of Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor, also named Rougned, and Yohel Pozo, a top catching prospect, both 19 years old. The players facing potential charges have been told not to leave the country, according to sources.

Video of the alleged assault, which took place toward the end of October, was captured and posted on Snapchat, according to sources. A 10-second clip of video, obtained by Yahoo Sports, shows the alleged victim in a Rangers shirt and Rangers shorts laying on a bed with his arms held behind his back and his legs pinned down. At least four men are seen in addition to the alleged victim, whose penis is exposed, grabbed and maneuvered underneath a hand towel. All of the men in the video, including the alleged victim, are seen laughing.

The alleged assault was one of a number of hazing incidents of Venezuelan and Colombian players, some of whom were younger than 18, according to sources. More tenured players shaved the head of at least one new player and forced at least one other to take his clothes off, and sources said police are investigating at least one more allegation of forced masturbation.

The players were questioned around Nov. 9 after the Rangers informed Dominican police of the alleged incident at their complex in Boca Chica, D.R., where their two Dominican Summer League teams play and players from across Latin America train. The Rangers have been one of the most successful teams in Latin America over the past decade, grooming some of their franchise cornerstones at the complex.

The Rangers reported the alleged assault immediately after a staff member in the Dominican Republic was told of it by a player not involved, and Major League Baseball opened an investigation into the alleged assault, as Fox Sports first reported late last week. MLB, which placed the four players facing potential charges on administrative leave, declined comment.

In a statement to Yahoo Sports, the Rangers said: “The Texas Rangers became aware of an incident at our Academy in the Dominican Republic and we acted promptly to open an investigation. We have reported the incident and are cooperating fully with Major League Baseball and the authorities in the Dominican Republic. With this being an ongoing investigation, we will have no further comment at this time.”

HEY GUYS, WE GOT THAT NEW KID REAL GOOD, DIDN'T WE??

HELL YEAH, NOBODY MESSES WITH US!

Friendly bunch, I say

This just in

Blackbob decides to try out for major league baseball team

What..the...efffff

ROFL

Sounds like he was good enough to get handed the job.

Maybe they all misunderstood the concept of being a five-tool player.

Sounds like they maybe in a sticky situation

He got the green light to hack away

This gives a whole new perspective on getting to third base.

That's not how we hazed people back when I was trying out for sports.

My aunt is a professional hazer. $25 per hazing

Squeeze play

We thought you said glaze him, coach. /thick mexican accent

thankfully, the video didn't show any chin music.

I wonder how someone comes up with that idea, and then how they sell it to the other hazing people.


Hazer 1: Let's make the new prospects bring us our water thermoses down from the locker room.

Hazer 2: No, wait! We can do better. Let's make them sing the fight song while standing on a cafeteria table.

Hazer 3: Or how about this? Maybe we wrestle them to ground, strip them down, and then masturbate them against their will?

And then Hazer 1 and Hazer 2 agree to it? How does that happen?

I"m going to take my athletic skills to a new game. I think my quickness will translate well to the game of baseball. I've instructed my agent to reach out, and around, to MLB clubs about the possibility of a tryout. / Michael Sam

my only hope is the video emerged with the Russian Sabre Dance as background music.

Is this all part of a "New Gay Day with Clay?"

Among those expected to be charged are the younger brother of Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor, also named Rougned... nobody is gonna comment on the fact that they have the same name? Brothers with the same name. This is worse than the haze.

Common in Latin America.

And no that's not worse than masturbating some guy while "hazing" him. I mean IMO They hazed him and themselves.

"I'm gonna jack him off. THAT'LL teach him..." doesn't make sense to me.

This is the most bizarre story I've ever read on CP.

yeah, my team mates just...well, they didn't masterbate me. hell, i just wanted to turn a double play. rangers, huh?
sec

Oh there have been others on par. Usually like this though.

****ing weirdos these days

What a bunch of jerks! Why is everyone so upset with them trying to give a young guy a helping hand?

Sounds like a pitchers nightmare, a bunch of switch hitters

You could say that he had a "hard" time breaking into the team.

Yet they hate homosexuals.

I know that they told him to work on his power stroke, but this is ridiculous.

Sounds like dude blew his wad before he even got to the bigs.

Hazing seems different than I remember it.

at least four players who held down a teammate and masturbated him,


"That's hot" - Cosmo

Got to be able to handle the wood to be an effective MLB hitter

He should be glad no pine tar was involved.

Don't worry guys, this is all OK because it's one of those stupid "unwritten rules" of baseball, right?

Lemme know if we are going to haze bumgardner /joe buck

Thread of the month!

ROFLROFL

These damn politically correct and gender bender leftists now have football players GIVING handjobs instead of receiving them.

WHAT HAS THIS WORLD COME TO?!? :eek:

Do they give assists in baseball?

Hazing in the dominican republic is weird...

More like gayzing...

I wonder how it affects participation rates. Because stories like this would push me away from sports and toward being that token male cheerleader on every squad.

"Haha that was so gay of the new guy getting jerked off by us" *sticky high fives ensue*

Interesting.

Somehow, still not as gay as wrasslin.

is there clear video indisputable evidence showing they were out of bounds by doing this?

Whatever happened to just a good ole fashioned tbagging

Hate to say it but you're right.

I'd absolutely rather jerk a guy off than wrestle.

You would be looking for the video evidence, wouldn't you?

For some reason I believe you.
