The son of former Major League All-Star Tim Raines has signed with a team in Taiwan’s Chinese Professional Baseball League. Tim Raines, Jr. recently inked a deal to play outfield with the La New Bears after batting .311 with 18 homers and 78 RBIs in 128 games for Tucson in the Pacific Coast League last year. He was released by the Chicago White Sox earlier this season.
Raines played parts of three seasons with Baltimore between 2001 and 2004, batting .213 in 75 games and playing in the same game as his father with the O’s on October 4, 2001.
To make room for Raines, the Bears released Nate Gold, who was hitting .221 in 18 games.
