Braves signed OF Andrew McCutchen to a minor league deal.

McCutchen was 14-for-73 (.192) with one homer and five RBI in 37 games with the Rangers earlier this season before being released on May 28th. The Braves just released Rowdy Tellez because they didn’t want a strict DH on their bench, but perhaps McCutchen could work his way up to fill that role because he’s a better runner. He will start out in Triple-A, however.

Rangers designated DH Andrew McCutchen for assignment.

McCutchen’s time with the Rangers is over after hitting just .192 (14-for-73) with one homer and five RBI over 37 games. The 39-year-old veteran is pretty much limited to DH as a short-side platoon option at this advanced stage of his legendary career. There might be an opportunity for him on a contending team as an invaluable clubhouse presence, but his run as an impactful fantasy contributor ended years ago.

Andrew McCutchen went 0-for-3 before being lifted for a pinch-hitter Sunday night against the Angels.

McCutchen is 6-for-37 with no RBI over the last month, leaving him at .200/.288/.271 for the year. He also has some of the worst contact and exit velocity numbers of his career at age 39. Unfortunately, it seems like it’s going to be really difficult for the Rangers to stick with him for much longer.

Brandon Nimmo is back in the Rangers lineup as a DH for Sunday Night Baseball against the Tigers.

Nimmo missed Saturday’s game with a nagging hamstring injury. Since he’s DHing, that means Joc Pederson is out of the lineup tonight. Andrew McCutchen is starting in the outfield for the third time this season.

Joc Pederson is not in the Rangers’ starting lineup for Friday night’s battle against the Dodgers.

While Pederson starts against most right-handers, he’ll get a breather in this one against his former squad while Andrew McCutchen starts in his place as the designated hitter and will bat fifth against Tyler Glasnow. Look for Pederson to return to action at some point over the weekend.
