Astros Designate Declan Cronin For Assignment
11 months agoThe Houston Astros have designated right-hander Declan Cronin for assignment in order to clear a 40-man roster spot for outfielder Trey Cabbage, who the club acquired via trade earlier on Wednesday from the Los Angeles Angels. It's the second time this offseason Cronin has been DFA'd, as the White Sox cut him loose in order to make room for the signing of free-agent pitcher Erick Fedde. The 26-year-old made his MLB debut in 2023, allowing 11 earned runs in as many innings with just eight strikeouts against seven walks in that time. He was far better at Triple-A, where he posted a 3.83 ERA across 47 appearances a season ago. Given his minor-league success, Cronin should receive interest from an MLB club ahead of spring training.
