Rougned Roberto Odor (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈruɣneð oˈðoɾ]) (born February 3, 1994), nicknamed "Rougie", is a Venezuelan professional baseball second baseman who is a free agent.

He has previously played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Texas Rangers, New York Yankees, Baltimore Orioles, and San Diego Padres.

[3] He has a sister[4] and a younger brother, Rougned José Odor,[5] who signed with the Texas Rangers organization on February 19, 2015.

[6] His uncle, Rouglas, played for eight seasons in Minor League Baseball for the Cleveland and Milwaukee Brewers organizations,[4][7] and is now[when?]

[11] Odor began the 2013 season with the Myrtle Beach Pelicans of the High–A Carolina League, where he had a .303 batting average in 99 games played.

[14] Odor's emergence with the Rangers allowed them to trade utility infielder Leury Garcia to the Chicago White Sox for all-star right fielder Alex Rios that month.

On May 12, against Houston Astros pitcher Brad Peacock, Odor hit his first major league home run.

Odor was the youngest player in the MLB during his rookie season and helped the Rangers' second base problem even though they finished 67–95, the third-worst record in baseball that year.

[20] Odor began 2015 as the Rangers' starting second baseman, but he struggled mightily, hitting .144 with one home run, nine RBIs, and 25 strikeouts to go with seven walks in 29 games.

[21] However, upon his demotion, Odor found his stroke, beating up Triple-A pitching to a .352/.426/.639 slash with five home runs, 19 RBIs, and only 10 strikeouts to 12 walks in roughly the same number of appearances.

On June 15, following an injury to Delino DeShields Jr.,[22] Odor was recalled to the Rangers, and in his return, promptly went 3-for-3 with two RBI against the Dodgers.

[20] On October 9, Odor was charged with a throwing error which allowed the Toronto Blue Jays to score the winning run in the 10th inning of Game 3 of the ALDS, thus eliminating the Rangers despite holding the best record in the AL in 2016.

[39] On April 6, 2021, the Rangers traded Odor to the New York Yankees for Josh Stowers and Antonio Cabello.

On March 1, 2023, Odor signed a minor league contract with the San Diego Padres, receiving a non-roster invitation to spring training.

[48] On January 20, 2024, Odor signed a one-year contract with the Yomiuri Giants of Nippon Professional Baseball.

[53] As part of the contract Odor signed in 2017, Rangers owner Ray Davis included a pair of quarter horses.

[9] Odor plans to build a ranch in the North Texas area, so that his family can move from Venezuela.
