    Marlon Jerrard Byrd (born August 30, 1977 in Boynton Beach, Florida) is a Major League Baseball player for the Texas Rangers. He was formerly a top prospect in the Philadelphia Phillies organization, as he was their tenth round pick in the 1999 First-Year Player Draft. Once he reached the big leagues in 2003, Byrd had an outstanding season. He came in fourth in the Rookie of the Year voting, batting .303 with 86 runs scored, 28 doubles, four triples, seven home runs and 11 stolen bases in 135 games and 495 at-bats. In 2004, he did not keep his high level performance and was eventually traded to the Washington Nationals in 2005 for Endy Chavez. On July 15, 2006, Byrd was designated for assignment and assigned to Washington's AAA affiliate, the New Orleans Zephyrs. Byrd was signed as a free agent by the Rangers on December 8, 2006 to compete for the starting position in center field. [1]

    Byrd attended Sprayberry High School (Marietta, GA) and won All-State honors in baseball and football.

    Byrd played baseball at Georgia Tech and Georgia Perimeter College.
