Might try a trade with the Braves for a AAA non-40-man pitcher like Kanekoa Texeira or Madison Younginer. Braves would probably deal Ian Krol, but he is on the 40 man roster. If he is waived there is a good chance a 23 year old lefty with a cuo of coffee will be claimed.

When you designate a guy for assignment, the chances of you getting a legitimate minor league prospect type is very slim. You’re more likely to snag a class A lotto ticket.

Older AAA guys get cut loose all the time. A roster slot is valuable. Kanekoa is 30 year old righty.

Texeira is old and Younginer was already in the system and they let him walk. They’ll try and keep him, but they don’t need another lefty reliever.
