Report: Ramirez in talks with Taiwanese team

Former Major-Leaguer Manny Ramirez could resume his baseball career in Taiwan, according to a Fox Sports report.

The 40-year-old is in talks with the EDA Rhinos of the Taiwanese professional league, the report said. The 12-time All-Star, who retired in 2011 after a second positive test for a performance-enhancing drug, attempted a comeback in 2012 with the Oakland A's, but was released from their Triple-A Sacramento affiliate on June 15.

The Rhinos play in the Chinese Professional Baseball League, and are coming off two last-place finishes. Ramirez is a career .312 hitter with 555 home runs and 1,831 RBI.
