Minor MLB Transactions: 7/4/17

By Mark Polishuk | July 4, 2017 at 10:05am CDT

Here are the latest minor moves from around baseball, with the newest transactions at the top of the post…

  • The Nationals signed infielder Ryan Jackson to a minor league contract.  Jackson appeared in 42 Major League games with the Cardinals and Angels between 2012-15 and has since bounced around with a few different organizations.  This is Jackson’s third minors deal of 2017 alone, as he previously inked deals with the Marlins and Mariners (plus a stint with the independent Sugar Land Skeeters).  Jackson is a career .269/.344/.354 hitter over 3336 minor league plate appearances, and he’ll provide more minor league infield depth for Washington in the wake of Trea Turner’s injury.
  • The Cardinals recalled right-hander Luke Weaver from Triple-A yesterday, and Weaver made his season debut for St. Louis with a scoreless inning in last night’s victory over the Marlins.  Weaver, ranked by Baseball America as the second-best prospect in the Cards’ system and as the 50th-best prospect in the game, made his big league debut in 2016, posting a 5.70 ERA over 36 1/3 IP.  Weaver owns a 1.93 ERA and sterling peripherals over 56 Triple-A innings this season as a starter, though Cardinals manager Mike Matheny told MLB.com’s Jenifer Langosch and other media that Weaver will be used in a variety of bullpen roles with the major league club.
  • The Rays outrighted Danny Farquhar to Triple-A, less than a week after designating the right-hander for assignment.  Farquhar has a 4.11 ERA, 8.5 K/9 and 1.5 K/BB rate over 35 relief innings for Tampa Bay this year, numbers that could’ve made him a candidate to be claimed off waivers during his DFA period, though he’ll remain in the Rays organization.

    Wacha — Closer?
    Weaver — Starter?

      Definitely worth a shot. Wacha definitely in the BP.

      I think Waino needs to move to the bullpen too. I think they need to bring Gonzales up and either get him ready for the future as a starter in the Cardinals rotation, or showcase him for a trade.

        Wainwright will remain a starter for as long as he’s able to pitch just capable enough for us to win. And he’s been doing that. He’s on an extremely long leash and won’t be doing anything other than starting for a long time
