Mi**r
Moves: Luis Marte
Here are today's
Mi**r moves and outright assignments from around the league...
- The*Tigers have released right-hander Luis Marte, tweets Anthony Fenech of the Detroit Free Press. The 27-year-old posted a 2.77 ERA with 7.6 K/9, 3.5 BB/9 and a 32.9 percent ground-ball rate in 26 innings for Detroit from 2011-12. However, a great deal of that success was tied to an unsustainable 92.1 percent strand rate. Though Marte has a solid Mi**r league track record -- a 3.23 ERA with 9.0 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9 in 454 innings -- he has just 56 career innings above Double-A and missed nearly all of 2013 due to shoulder surgery. Manager Brad Ausmus*told Fenech that the team knew Marte wouldn't make the club and didn't have room for him in the mi**rs.
