Chuckie Robinson was only a Dodger for a day or two before being designated for assignment once again. Doh! Speaking of a few days, the Orioles signed Chadwick Tromp to a minor league deal and they have him on their taxi squad.
The Giants released our old friend Jake Lamb from his minor league contract. Who thinks he will end up in Korea? The Giants also designated first baseman LaMonte Wade Jr. and back up catcher Sam Huff for assignment. They signed Dominic Smith to cover first base.
Interestingly, Garrett Richards has reached out to Triston Casas to provide mentoring as Casas rehabs from his ruptured patellar tendon.
The Reds signed Wade Miley to a one year major league deal and placed Hunter Greene on the 15 day IL with a groin strain.
Once again, it’s time for All Star voting. Who will be the Angels’ token All Star?
Infielder/outfielder Nick Solak is now a free agent. Ditto for Travis Jankowski. The White Sox claimed right-hander Ryan Cusick off waivers from the Tigers.
