The Royals released Dozier on Saturday.

Dozier refused his assignment to Triple-A Omaha and was officially let go Saturday. He's now free to sign with another team, though he will likely have to settle for a minor-league deal given his .183/.253/.305 slash line and 31.9 percent strikeout rate over 91 plate appearances this season. The Royals will still be on the hook for the $16.25 million Dozier is owed through 2024 on the four-year, $25 million contract extension he signed in March 2021.
