Let's keep track of the day's minor transactions right here…
- The Blue Jays have released Tim Redding according to the Pacific Coast League transactions page. Toronto signed the veteran right-hander during the offseason. Redding, 34, pitched to an 8.66 ERA in seven starts and 16 relief appearances with their Triple-A affiliate this year.
- The Tigers have released Matt Young according to the International League transactions page. The 29-year-old had one double and nine strikeouts in ten at-bats with Detroit earlier this season, but they designated him for assignment and then outrighted him last month. Young hit .212/.363/.276 in 369 Triple-A plate appearances this season.
unless he requested it, this actually doesn’t make sense. tigers are losing 2 minor league players in the baker deal and need the depth. head scratcher
depth for what? I’m pretty sure they can go pull some AAA jobber out of the indy leagues if run out of warm bodies.
Don Kelly is taking his roster spot!
I am declining to comment.
