ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) -The Texas Rangers have agreed to a minor league contract with center fielder Andruw Jones, who was released by the Los Angeles Dodgers last month.
The deal was disclosed by a person familiar with the agreement who spoke on condition of anonymity because the Rangers had not yet announced it. It was reported earlier by several media outlets.
Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said Sunday night that a deal could be announced as early as Monday.

A five-time All Star who won 10 straight Gold Gloves with the Atlanta Braves, Jones was injured last season and hit only .158 with three home runs and 14 RBIs in 75 games. He had knee surgery in May and asked to be traded, but the Dodgers found no one interested.
