Minor MLB Transactions: 4/1/21

By Anthony Franco and Connor Byrne | April 1, 2021 at 8:36pm CDT

The game’s latest minor transactions:

  • Cubs infielder Ildemaro Vargas cleared waivers and was assigned outright to the alternate training site, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune was among those to note (Twitter link). The Cubs designated the 29-year-old for assignment over the weekend. Vargas is a switch-hitter who has been decent against left-handed pitching in his brief big league time. He hasn’t hit righties at all, though, and slashed just .196/.222/.314 in 54 plate appearances between the Diamondbacks, Twins and Cubs last season.
  • Phillies left-hander Kyle Dohy cleared waivers and was outrighted to their alternate site, per a team announcement. Dohy was a 16th-round pick in 2017 who has pitched to a 3.89 ERA in 155 minor league innings. He made his Triple-A debut in 2019 but struggled to a 6.19 ERA over 56 2/3 frames. FanGraphs’ Eric Longenhagen ranked the 24-year-old as the Phillies’ 32nd-best prospect last month, writing that his “plus changeup and mid-90s velo” could someday make him a viable relief option in the bigs.

        word on the street is he was playing through an oblique injury and he didnt tell them or something until he was sent down so they couldn’t DFA him. they say they’re trying to bring him back as well.

    I would have taken CHATHAM over Torres. Joe took his guy.

    I like Vargas I deff can see him coming up and replacing Duffy soon. Also Maybin resigning a planned minor lg deal a day after being cut was an obvious sign team wants him on the roster. I think we’re going to go from 9-8 rp soon and they told him give us a week or 2 to decide on which pitcher to option out or dfa and Maybin will take his spot.

    This lefty Dohy strikes out 111 in 67 IP in 18 and 105 in 67 IP IN 19 ouy of the pen and no one takes chance? I’m guessing he would need to take a 40 man spot on another team if claimed?
    Must be the 42 walks in ’18 and 59 in ’19 that scare scouts off. I’d still catch em. Goo Angels!
