Manny Ramirez signed a minor league deal with the Texas Rangers recently. While the deal gives the 41-year-old slugger another chance at the big leagues it also came at the expense of his dreadlocks.
Ramirez still has his 555 MLB home runs but does not have the dreadlocks anymore. The Rangers have a rule requiring their minor leaguers to keep their hair cut.

Ramirez is scheduled to DH for Round Rock on Sunday. His return to the big leagues does not have any schedule attached to it yet.
