Here are today’s outright assignments and minor moves from around the league…
- Infielder Jeff Bianchi has cleared waivers after being designated for assignment by the Red Sox and been sent outright to Triple-A Pawtucket, reports Tim Britton of the Providence Journal (on Twitter). As a player who has previously been outrighted, he’ll have the option to reject the assignment in favor of free agency. Bianchi received just two plate appearances and saw action in three total games while with the Red Sox. The rest of his big league experience — 401 plate appearances over 162 games — has come with the Brewers.
