Tejeda was outrighted off the Rangers' 40-man roster and became a minor-league free agent Friday, independent baseball journalist Jeff Wilson reports.
Tejeda appeared in five big-league games in April but spent the rest of the year in the minors. He's still just 23 years old and was once a fairly interesting prospect, which could earn him some attention on the open market, but his .194/.266/.368 slash line and 41.5 percent strikeout rate in the minors this season may scare away potential suitors.
