To make room for Wandy Rodriguez’s return from the DL tonight, the Astros designated reliever Dave Borkowski for assignment. They also signed righty Jorge Sosa to a minor league deal.
Borkowski, 31, makes $800K this year. His 2.67 K/BB (21 innings) this year wasn’t bad, but he allowed too many hits and home runs.
Sosa, 30, was designated for assignment and then released by the Mets earlier this year. $2MM down the tubes for the Mets.
