The brief and unremarkable Red Sox career of Carlos Peguero is likely finished, with the Red Sox announcing that they have outrighted Peguero from the team’s 40-man roster. The Red Sox acquired Peguero from the Rangers in exchange for cash considerations in May, but after going just 1-5 with a walk over a few weeks with the Red Sox, they designated him for assignment and acquired Alejandro De Aza from Baltimore.
Generally an outright assignment means that a player reports to his team’s Triple-A affiliate in addition to being removed from the 40-man roster.
