MLB Transactions- Padres Extend Clayton Richard September 20, 2017The Padres have announced an extension with lefty Clayton Richard, who had been slated to return to free agency. It’s a two-year deal with a $6MM guarantee and “minor” incentives, MLB.com’s AJ Cassavell reports on Twitter. Since signing a one-year, $1.75MM deal over the winter, the 34-year-old Richard has operated as a full-time starter for the…
- Blue Jays Extend Marco Estrada Through 2018 September 20, 2017It’s been previously reported on multiple occasions that the Blue Jays and right-hander Marco Estrada had mutual interest in a reunion, and that interest came to fruition on Wednesday. The 34-year-old Estrada, who was slated to hit free agency at season’s end, will instead forgo that opportunity in order to return to the Jays on…
- Giants Claim Pierce Johnson Off Waivers, Transfer Brandon Belt To 60-Day DL September 20, 2017The Cubs announced to reporters that right-hander Pierce Johnson, who was designated for assignment last week, has been claimed off waivers by the Giants. The Giants have transferred first baseman Brandon Belt to the 60-day DL to clear a spot for Johnson, per Alex Pavlovic of CSN Bay Area (Twitter link), which definitively puts an…
- Reds Outright D.J. Peterson September 19, 2017The Reds have outrighted corner infielder D.J. Peterson after he cleared waivers, per a club announcement. Cincinnati had just claimed the former top prospect off waivers from the White Sox. Clearly, the series of moves was designed to add Peterson without tying up a 40-man spot, which seems to have been successful. He will be Rule…
- Minor MLB Transactions: 9/18/17 September 19, 2017Here are today’s minor moves from around the league… The Reds have announced that RHP Barrett Astin cleared waivers and has been assigned to Triple-A Louisville.

- Padres Designate Dusty Coleman, Jose Valdez September 18, 2017The Padres have designated infielder Dusty Coleman and right-handed reliever Jose Valdez for assignment, according to an official announcement from the organization. The contracts of catcher Rocky Gale and infielder Christian Villanueva have been selected in a related move. The Padres have also recalled RHP Tim Melville, along with outfielders Travis Jankows […]
- Reds Claim D.J. Peterson From White Sox September 17, 2017The Reds have claimed infielder D.J. Peterson off waivers from the White Sox. Cincinnati transferred reliever Drew Storen to the 60-day disabled list in a corresponding move. The White Sox also outrighted catcher Alfredo Gonzalez to Double-A Birmingham, reducing their 40-man total to 38, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune tweets. This is the second…
- Orioles Outright Richard Rodriguez, Select Tanner Scott September 17, 20171:13pm: Rodriguez has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Norfolk, per an announcement from Baltimore. 10:22am: The Orioles announced that they’ve designated right-hander Richard Rodriguez for assignment. The team selected left-hander Tanner Scott from Double-A Bowie in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old Rodriguez, who’s in his third season with the Ba […]
- Pirates Outright Drew Hutchison September 16, 2017The Pirates have outrighted right-hander Drew Hutchison from the 40-man roster, as John Dreker of Pirates Prospects first reported. Hutchison has already cleared waivers. Hutchison earned $2.3MM this year and would be eligible for arbitration for two more campaigns. But he never made it up to the majors in 2017 and clearly was destined for…
- Tigers Acquire Elvin Rodriguez From Angels To Complete Justin Upton Trade September 15, 2017The Angels have announced that they have sent righty Elvin Rodriguez to the Tigers. He’ll become the player to be named later in the deal that sent outfielder Justin Upton to Los Angeles two weeks ago. Rodriguez, 19, joins fellow minor-league righty Grayson Long in making up the return for Upton, who was something of…
- Brewers Designate Yadiel Rivera For Assignment September 15, 2017The Brewers announced Friday that they’ve designated infielder Yadiel Rivera for assignment in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Aaron Wilkerson, whose contract has been selected from Triple-A Colorado Springs. Wilkerson was acquired from the Red Sox in the 2016 trade that sent Aaron Hill to Boston. Rivera, 25, has…
- Minor MLB Transactions: 9/14/17 September 15, 2017Here are the day’s minor moves from around the league… Left-hander Onelki Garcia has cleared waivers after being designated for assignment and been sent outright to the Royals’ Triple-A affiliate, tweets MLB.com’s Jeffrey Flanagan. Garcia, 28, made a pair of appearances — one start, one relief outing — with the Royals in what was his…
- Giants Claim Engelb Vielma September 14, 20173:13 pm: Vielma has been claimed by the Giants, Darren Wolfson of KSTP News reports via twitter. The former Twins infield prospect adds a bit of depth to a Giants team that has been in dire need of a defensively-minded backup infielder lately. Both Kelby Tomlinson and Orlando Calixte have been underwhelming with the glove this season, so if Vielma…
- Cubs Designate Pierce Johnson For Assignment September 14, 2017The Cubs announced on Wednesday that they’ve designated right-hander Pierce Johnson for assignment in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for fellow righty Jen-Ho Tseng, whose contract has been selected from Triple-A Iowa. Now 26 years of age, Johnson once ranked as one of the Cubs’ very best pitching prospects and was…
- Minor MLB Transactions: 9/13/17 September 13, 2017We’ll track the day’s minor MLB transactions here: The Orioles have announced that lefty Andrew Faulkner has been outrighted to Triple-A after clearing waivers. Faulkner, who turned 25 yesterday, was set to participate in the Arizona Fall League for the O’s before he was designated for assignment recently. He threw 38 2/3 frames on the…
- Gio Gonzalez’s 2018 Option Vests September 12, 2017While it’s largely a formality at this point, Gio Gonzalez is now officially under contract with the Nationals for 2018. His $12MM option vested once he reached 180 innings pitched, which he did by retiring Braves leadoff man Ender Inciarte tonight. The option year is the final one on the extension that Gonzalez signed not…
- Minor MLB Transactions: 9/12/17 September 12, 2017Here are the day’s minor moves from around the game: The Red Sox have outrighted right-hander Kyle Martin, per a team announcement. He had been designated for assignment recently but will remain with the organization. Martin, 26, was regarded as a legitimate prospect entering the current season; indeed, he ranked 14th on the club’s list, per…
- Twins Designate Engelb Vielma For Assignment September 12, 2017The Twins announced today that they’ve selected the contract of left-handed reliever Gabriel Moya from Double-A Chattanooga and designated minor league shortstop Engelb Vielma for assignment in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Vielma, 23, was added to the 40-man roster last offseason to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft despite…
- Rangers Release Tyson Ross September 12, 2017The Rangers announced Tuesday that they’ve released right-hander Tyson Ross in order to clear a spot on the roster for Willie Calhoun, whose previously reported promotion to the Majors has now been formally announced.
