The Rangers have optioned pitcher Yohander Mendez to Round Rock after a violation of team rules, GM Jon Daniels told the media on Tuesday.
Daniels said other players were involved to varying degrees and are being disciplined, but no one else will be removed from the roster. The incident did not involve a police or criminal matter.
