The latest minor league transactions from around baseball…
- The Astros outrighted Robel Garcia to Triple-A after the infielder cleared waivers. Garcia was designated for assignment earlier this week, marking the fifth time in the last 14 months that Garcia has gone through the DFA process, though this is the first time he hasn’t been claimed by another team. After being claimed by the Astros last February, Garcia has spent the entire season in Houston’s organization, posting only a .423 OPS over 117 big league plate appearances but chipping in as a utility infielder. Garcia has a .189/.321/.422 slash line over 109 PA at Triple-A Sugar Land.
