Nothing affecting the major-league roster, but this does seem worthy of note
- Claimed off waivers from Rangers and optioned to Triple-A Reno: C Andrew Knizner
- Designated for assignment: RHP Luis Frías
There has been some suggestion that this suggests Gabriel Moreno could be on the IL for longer than expected, perhaps the rest of the season. But, in the absence of data to support that directly, I think it’s just the team needing someone to catch for the Reno Aces. If Moreno was going to be out for a long time, then they could have put him on the 60-day IL and kept Frias.
