Cincinnati Reds left-hander Amir Garrett looked dominant in a Cactus League appearance against the San Diego Padres on Tuesday. Garrett threw a scoreless sixth inning, striking out the side in the frame, the second straight outing where the big lefty has gotten all three outs via the strikeout. Garrett missed the early part of Cactus League play while healing from a strained forearm but he is on track for the regular season now. He is locked in a battle for the closer role with Sean Doolittle and Lucas Sims, who made his Cactus League debut on Tuesday. It is possible that manager David Bell opts for a ninth-inning committee to open the season, giving all three players varying levels of relevance in fantasy.--Matt T - RotoBaller

The Los Angeles Angeles signed free-agent left-hander Amir Garrett to a minor-league deal on Wednesday. Garrett was with the San Francisco Giants during spring training but was cut. The 31-year-old veteran southpaw reliever will now land with the Angels and will hope to eventually be called up to the big leagues. The former 22nd-round pick by the Cincinnati Reds in 2011 made 27 relief appearances for the Kansas City Royals last year and had a 3.33 ERA (5.56 FIP) and 1.73 WHIP with 20 walks and 28 strikeouts in 24 2/3 innings. Garrett has been able to strikeout plenty in his seven major-league seasons with a 10.4 K/9 in 325 1/3 innings, but he's also walked 5.2 hitters per nine innings. He remains well off the fantasy radar.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Free-agent reliever Amir Garrett agreed to a minor-league deal with the San Francisco Giants on Monday, according to sources. The deal includes an invitation to major-league spring training and would pay him $1.35 million if he's in the majors. The 31-year-old left-hander spent last season with the Kansas City Royals, where he posted a 3.33 ERA (5.56 FIP) and 1.73 WHIP with 20 walks and 28 strikeouts in 24 1/3 relief innings. Garrett does have an above-average 26.4 percent career strikeout rate in 325 1/3 career innings at the major-league level, but it's also come with an underwhelming 4.95 ERA (4.92 FIP) and 1.44 WHIP with eight saves over seven seasons with the Royals and Cincinnati Reds. He won't be on the fantasy radar in 2024, even if he makes San Fran's Opening Day roster.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Cleveland Guardians signed free-agent left-hander Amir Garrett to a minor-league deal on Monday. The Kansas City Royals cut Garrett earlier this month after he allowed 11 runs (nine earned) on 22 hits while walking 20 and striking out 28 in 24 1/3 innings over 27 relief appearances for them. The 31-year-old southpaw will likely begin with Triple-A Columbus, but it remains to be seen if he'll get another shot in the big leagues in 2023 in Cleveland. Garrett spent his first five big-league seasons with the Cincinnati Reds before pitching for the Royals the last two seasons. He has a 4.95 ERA (4.92 FIP), 1.44 WHIP, eight saves and a 26.4 percent strikeout rate in 325 1/3 career innings in the majors.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Kansas City Royals left-hander Amir Garrett (elbow) threw a bullpen session on Monday and is slated to throw live batting practice on June 15. Garrett has been on the injured list retroactive to May 29 with pain in his throwing elbow. The veteran lefty has made 23 appearances for the Royals in 2023, posting a 3.00 ERA and 24 strikeouts over 21 innings of work. Garrett is trending towards a return in mid-to-late July and will provide bullpen depth for the Royals once he's back.--Matt T - RotoBaller
