Ramón Luis Vázquez (born August 21, 1976 in Aibonito, Puerto Rico) is a shortstop in Major League Baseball who plays for the Texas Rangers organization. Previously, Vázquez played with the Seattle Mariners (2001), San Diego Padres (2002-2004), Boston Red Sox (2005), and Cleveland Indians (2005-2006). He bats left-handed and throws right-handed.
Vázquez became a minor league free agent after the 2006 season, and on November 17, 2006, signed a minor league contract with the Texas Rangers. Midseason injuries to Rangers third baseman Hank Blalock and second baseman Ian Kinsler forced Vázquez into an everyday role for the first time since the 2003 season.
On August 22, 2007, Vazquez had seven RBIs with two homers in a very rare 30-run slugfest against the Baltimore Orioles.[1]
