MLB Transactions- Minor MLB Transactions: 8/15/18 August 16, 2018Here are Wednesday’s minor moves from around the league… The Mariners purchased the contract of former big league lefty David Rollins from the Sussex County Miners of the independent Can-Am League, reports Tacoma Rainiers broadcaster Mike Curto. He’ll join the Mariners’ top affiliate in Tacoma. Rollins was starting for the Miners, having notched a 2.79… […]
- Angels Designate Akeel Morris For Assignment August 15, 2018The Angels announced that they’ve reinstated catcher Rene Rivera from the 60-day DL and opened a 40-man roster spot by designating right-hander Akeel Morris for assignment. The Halos optioned catcher Jose Briceno to Triple-A to open room on the 25-man roster. It’s been a tough season for the 25-year-old Morris both in the Majors and…
- Royals Release Blaine Boyer, Promote Jorge Lopez August 15, 2018The Royals have placed right-handed reliever Blaine Boyer on release waivers, per a club announcement. Boyer’s release will clear a spot on the roster for the promotion of right-hander Jorge Lopez. Technically, Boyer’s release won’t be official until he clears waivers in 48 hours. Other clubs will have the opportunity to claim him off release…
- Yankees To Designate George Kontos For Assignment August 15, 2018The Yankees will designate right-hander George Kontos for assignment in order to open a spot on the roster for righty Luis Cessa, per Newsday’s Erik Boland (Twitter link). He’d only been selected to the MLB roster two days prior. Kontos, 33, appeared in one game in his reunion with the Yankees — the organization that…
- Marlins Select Austin Dean August 15, 2018The Marlins announced Wednesday that they’ve selected the contract of outfield prospect Austin Dean prior to tonight’s game and optioned infielder/outfielder Christopher Bostick to Triple-A New Orleans in his place.

- Orioles Release Danny Valencia August 15, 2018The Orioles announced today that they have released veteran infielder/outfielder Danny Valencia. He had been designated for assignment recently. Clearly, the O’s weren’t able to find a taker for any of the remainder of Valencia’s $1.2MM salary. Some of that could still be offset at the league-minimum rate, if Valencia catches on elsewhere. While he’s… […]
- Cubs Acquire Terrance Gore August 15, 2018The Cubs have acquired outfielder Terrance Gore from the Royals, per an announcement from the Kansas City organization. Cash considerations will head back in return. Gore, 27, will presumably reprise his role as a late-season/postseason threat on the bases. No doubt he’ll begin his tenure with the Chicago organization in the upper minors, where he…
- Brandon McCarthy To Retire At Season’s End August 15, 2018Veteran righty Brandon McCarthy says he’ll wrap up his playing career at the end of the season, MLB.com’s Mark Bowman writes. This is his 13th campaign in the majors. McCarthy, 35, is still hoping to make it back from a knee injury that has sidelined him for a major portion of the 2018 campaign. Indeed,…
- Angels Acquire Odrisamer Despaigne, Designate Dayan Diaz August 15, 2018The Angels have acquired righty Odrisamer Despaigne from the Marlins, Maria Guardado of MLB.com reports on Twitter.

With the move, the Marlins now have an open 40-man slot to work with. Needless to…
- Brandon Beachy Signs With Atlantic League’s New Britain Bees August 15, 2018The New Britain Bees of the independent Atlantic League announced today that they’ve signed right-hander Brandon Beachy. It’ll be the first professional action for Beachy since he tossed one lone inning with the Dodgers’ Rookie-level affiliate in 2016. Once a rising star with the Braves earlier this decade, Beachy’s promising career was derailed by a… […]
- Angels Select Taylor Ward August 14, 20186:06pm: The Angels announced that outfielder Chris Young was transferred from the 10-day DL to the 60-day DL to open a spot on the 40-man roster for Ward.

That’ll make Tampa Bay’s total haul for Archer an impressive combination of Austin Meadows, Tyler Glasnow and Baz, who was the…
