Minor MLB Transactions: 9/21/17

By Steve Adams | September 21, 2017 at 3:47pm CDT

Here are Thursday’s minor moves from around the league…

  • The Padres announced that shortstop Dusty Coleman and right-hander Jose Valdez have cleared waivers after being designated for assignment earlier this week. Both players have subsequently been sent outright to Triple-A El Paso. Coleman, 30, saw his most extensive big league stint to date this season, appearing in 27 games for the Friars and hitting .227/.268/.455 with four homers in 71 plate appearances. He’s only appeared in two Major League seasons, though he’s a veteran of five Triple-A campaigns, where he’s compiled a .239/.296/.414 batting line. Valdez, 27, has seen limited Major League action in each of the past three seasons, though he’s struggled to a 5.72 ERA through 50 1/3 innings in that time. The hard-throwing Valdez has averaged better than a strikeout per inning in the minors but has also averaged more than five walks per inning in that time. Valdez owns a 3.43 ERA with 8.3 K/9 against 4.7 BB/9 through 133 2/3 Triple-A frames.

    Not bad for a guy that started the year in A+ ball

      Who? Valdez started the season in AAA and the last time he was in A+ ball was 2013. Coleman is a 9 year veteran of the minors and started the year in AAA.

        Valdez or am I thinking of the other guy?
        The one up north on the 40 man
        Former catcher turned pitcher
        Who was recalled from A+ ball twice this year

          I think you are talking about Juan Valdez. He makes good coffee.

          Jose Ruiz was originally a catcher and started the season in Lake Elsinore. Is that who you mean?

          Ruiz has one inning in the majors. LOL.

          Honestly. I’ve been making that same mistake all year. And I’m Mexican. No excuse.
