McGuire announced his retirement Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire threw 51.2 major-league innings for the Reds, Blue Jays and Angels, recording a 5.23 ERA. He last pitched in the majors in 2018, spending the years since then pitching in the KBO, the Atlantic League and Triple-A.

McGuire signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Thursday and was assigned to Triple-A Louisville.

EDGE Analysis

He debuted for Louisville on Saturday, covering 4.1 innings while giving up five earned runs on four hits and two walks. The 32-year-old right-hander previously made 27 big-league appearances with the Reds, Blue Jays and Angels between the 2017 and 2018 seasons, logging a 5.23 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 51.2 innings. He most recently pitched in the independent Atlantic League of Professional Baseball with the Gastonia Honey Hunters before landing the minor-league deal with Cincinnati.

The Rays released McGuire last week, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

One of 25 minor-league players let go by Tampa Bay, McGuire will presumably try to find work either with another organization or in a foreign league due to the uncertainty that a minor-league season will be held in 2020. McGuire returned to North America after spending the 2019 season in the Korea Baseball Organization as a member of the Samsung Lions, with whom he posted a 5.05 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 112.1 innings.

The Rays reassigned McGuire to their minor-league camp Thursday, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

EDGE Analysis

The non-roster invitee never had much hope to break camp for a Rays squad that's overflowing both with rotation and bullpen depth. He'll likely begin the season with Triple-A Durham.

McGuire signed a minor-league deal with the Rays on Friday that includes an invite to big-league camp, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire spent the 2019 season in the Korean Baseball Organization with the Samsung Lions, but he struggled in 21 starts with a 5.05 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 100:66 K:BB over 112.1 innings. The 30-year-old is a longshot to make Tampa Bay's Opening Day roster, but he could still provide organizational depth as a starter or long reliever.

McGuire was outrighted from the Angels' 40-man roster Friday.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire was dealt to the Angels from Texas in mid-June and went on to make 17 appearances with Los Angeles in 2018, posting a disastrous 6.07 ERA and 1.69 WHIP with a 26:21 K:BB in 29.2 innings with the club. This move will allow the team to free up another spot on the 40-man roster in order to protect a younger prospect from the Rule 5 draft.

McGuire was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire will rejoin the big-league team after shuttling back and forth between Los Angeles and the minors throughout the past month. Across 16 appearances in the majors this year, he's logged a rough 6.47 ERA and 1.62 WHIP with a 27:20 K:BB in 32 innings. He will likely be deployed in low-leverage spots.

McGuire was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire was recalled 10 days ago to replace Hansel Robles on the active roster, but with Robles returning, McGuire was no longer needed in the big leagues. He'll head back to the minors for a brief amount of time before likely returning when rosters expand in September.

McGuire was called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire will rejoin the major-league bullpen after being optioned following a disastrous spot start against the Indians on Aug. 5. Look for him to be utilized in low-leverage spots during his time with the club.

McGuire was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.

EDGE Analysis

McGuire will head back to the minors after allowing three runs while recording just one out during his start against the Indians on Sunday. The 29-year-old now owns a brutal 7.41 ERA across 17 innings with the Angels this season. Jose Miguel Fernandez will take his place on the active roster as the Angels look to add an additional bench bat with Mike Trout still nursing a wrist contusion.
