The Rays announced they’ve designated left-hander Ken Waldichuk for assignment. That’s the corresponding 40-man roster move for infielder Ben Williamson, acquired from Seattle in tonight’s three-team trade that sent All-Star utility player Brendan Donovan to the Mariners.
Tampa Bay picked up Waldichuk in a DFA trade with Atlanta a few weeks ago. They’re his third organization of the offseason. The Braves had claimed him off waivers from the A’s, who had themselves designated him for assignment after trading for Jeff McNeil.
