Matt Garza by Bill Richardson, Baseball Digest Daily

I hate to question moves by Terry Ryan, but I really don’t like this one…

The Minnesota Twins announced prior to tonight’s game that they have optioned righthanded pitcher Matt Garza to Triple-A Rochester.

Garza was 0-0, 1.50 (12.0 ip, 2 er), allowing nine hits with five walks and seven strikeouts in six appearances (one start) this spring.

Thanks to the White Sox for this release...

Prior to Wednesday’s spring training game vs. San Francisco, the Chicago White Sox made the following seven roster moves:

INF Josh Fields, OF Jerry Owens, OF Ryan Sweeney and RHP Sean Tracey were optioned to Class AAA Charlotte;

LHP Gio Gonzalez, C Gustavo Molina and INF Robert Valido were reassigned to minor-league camp.

With the moves, the White Sox have 33 players remaining in camp: 15 pitchers, three catchers, nine infielders and six outfielders.

The Reds optioned 1B Joey Votto to Class AAA Louisville today and reassigned P Homer Bailey to their minor league camp. Bailey struggled a bit this spring, but don't read too much into that. He's still one of the top 5-10 prospects in the game today.
