Minor MLB Transactions: 6/22/21

By Anthony Franco | June 22, 2021 at 10:55pm CDT

The latest minor moves from around baseball:

  • The Diamondbacks announced that utilityman Ildemaro Vargas has cleared waivers and been assigned outright to Triple-A Reno. The 29-year-old has bounced around the league a bit in recent seasons, suiting up for Arizona, Minnesota, Pittsburgh and the Cubs. Through 55 MLB plate appearances in 2021, Vargas has hit just .137/.200/.176. As a player who has previously been outrighted in his career, Vargas has the right to elect free agency.
  • Marlins infielder Deven Marrero has apparently cleared waivers and accepted an outright assignment, as he was in tonight’s lineup with Triple-A Jacksonville. Miami designated Marrero for assignment over the weekend. The former Red Sox utilityman only appeared in one MLB game with the Marlins before being removed from the 40-man roster, going hitless in three plate appearances.
  • The Phillies have signed utilityman Jake Elmore to a minor league contract, notes Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America. He has been assigned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The 34-year-old has appeared in parts of six MLB seasons, most recently with the 2019 Pirates. Elmore has a .215/.292/.275 mark in 527 major league plate appearances.
  • The Athletics recently released right-hander Tanner Anderson, Hilburn-Trenkle relays. Also a former Pirate, Anderson pitched in the big leagues between 2018-19. The 28-year-old has worked to a 6.15 ERA/4.88 SIERA over 33 2/3 MLB frames. He’d managed a 3.60 ERA in 15 innings with Triple-A Las Vegas this year, but Anderson only struck out three batters in that time while walking twelve.

      Logan Landon? Is that a Minor League player or one of those composite player names from video games?

    Deven Marrero making the move to wait until the Marlins are ready to send Luis Marte down again for Deven Marrero again…and then vice versa a few days later. This could be interesting if that continues.

    Phils make another great signing 34yr old Jake Elmore this guy should be retired never was any good.I know it is a minor league depth thing but go with a young guy and see what he can do.This organization is FLAWED top to bottom.

      Might not be any young guys available to fill the necessary role.

        I have to agree with him. There are many guys under the age of 30 playing in independent or international leagues. For me, I would rather have 25 year old garbage on my MiLB roster instead of a 34-year old depth move. The younger guy might surprise you if he’s a diamond in the rough. The 34 year old is not doing anything but filling space with no chance of doing more.
