Stamets re-signed Wednesday with the Blue Jays on a minor-league contract.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets is back in the Toronto organization less than a month after the Blue Jays released him from his minor-league contract. He returned to the lineup for Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday and will most likely remain with the affiliate for the rest of the season. The 30-year-old infielder, who last appeared in the majors with Cleveland in 2019, is slashing .181/.290/.301 over 194 plate appearances with Buffalo on the campaign.

Stamets signed a minor-league contract with Toronto on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old's only big-league experience came with Cleveland in 2019, when he struggled to a .049/.149/.073 line in 15 games while striking out in half of his plate appearances. He's unlikely to offer the Guardians anything more than organizational depth in the middle infield, as his .569 OPS in 34 Triple-A games last season hardly suggests he's ready to make an impact at the highest level.

Stamets will be a part of the Rockies' 60-man summer camp.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old journeyman infielder was in camp on a minor-league deal. He has spent the last few seasons languishing at Triple-A in the Indians' organization, finally getting a brief taste of the majors in 2019 and hitting .049 with a 50 percent strikeout rate in 48 plate appearances.

Stamets signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets got his first taste of major-league action in 2019, recording a batting average of .049 with 24 strikeouts over 15 games with Cleveland. The 28-year-old will get a chance to compete in major-league spring training this year, although it's unclear whether he will be able to make an impact given his previous struggles to produce.

Stamets cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
He was designated for assignment earlier in the week and went unclaimed. Stamets hit .049 in 48 MLB plate appearances and has a 76 wRC+ at Triple-A.

Stamets was designated for assignment by the Indians on Wednesday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This move frees up a roster spot for Thursday's starter, Danny Salazar (shoulder), who was activated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move. The 27-year-old Stamets has spent most of the season with Triple-A Columbus, slashing just .232/.313/.378 with six homers and 12 steals in 71 games for the Clippers.

Stamets was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets got an extended run of starts with Francisco Lindor (ankle) on the injured list. He looked way out of his depth, hitting .049/.149/.073 in 15 games with a 50 percent strikeout rate. Mike Freeman was called up to take his place.

Stamets is not in the lineup Saturday against Kansas City, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets gets just his second day off of the season. Max Moroff starts at shortstop in his place.

Stamets is out of the lineup Saturday against the Twins, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets received the Opening Day start at shortstop, striking out in both of his first two major-league at-bats. The Tribe will turn to Max Moroff at shortstop Saturday, with both he and Stamets likely to work in a timeshare at the position until one cements himself as the superior option. Both will see their playing time drop sharply, however, once Francisco Lindor (calf/ankle) is ready to return from the injured list.

Stamets started at shortstop and went 0-for-2 in Thursday's season opener against Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Stamets wasn't the only Cleveland starter to struggle at the dish, as the team was shut out on Opening Day. With Francisco Lindor (calf/ankle) beginning the season on the 10-day injured list, Stamets is the next man up at shortstop. He'll look for his first hit of 2019 in Friday's matchup with the Twins.
