Astros' Danny Worth: Designated for assignment
Worth was designated for assignment by the Astros on Sunday.
Analysis:
Since joining the Astros, the 30-year-old has posted just a .442 OPS over the course of 15 games (38 at-bats). The move came following Sunday's contest, when Marwin Gonzalez left with an ankle sprain. While there may be no correlation, Houston will look to improve their offensive production, adding Alex Bregman, one of the team's top prospects, potentially as an everyday utility man.
