Tristin English cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Reno after being designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks. He was 28 when selected to the big-league roster in July, marking his first major-league call and first career outright. He lacks three years of service time and therefore could not reject the assignment. He made his MLB debut but collected only two hits in 23 plate appearances. He will remain with the Diamondbacks as a non-roster depth piece capable of playing the four corner positions. In Triple-A this year he hit .322/.368/.522 with a 109 wRC+ in 349 plate appearances.
Infielder/outfielder Tristin English has been sent outright to Triple-A Reno, according to his transaction tracker at MLB.com. He played for the Aces on Sunday. That indicates he cleared waivers after being designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks last week. English, 28, was just selected to the big league roster in July. That was his first call to the show. This is his first career outright and he is well short of three years of big league service time.
While his stint on the roster was fairly brief and he spent notable time on optional assignment, he did get to make his debut. He got just two hits in 23 plate appearances, not a great showing but at least he can say he has a few big league knocks. He'll stick with the Diamondbacks as a non-roster depth piece capable of playing the four corner positions.
