Barney was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Friday, Mark Saxon of ESPN Los Angeles reports. With Ronald Torreyes coming aboard via trade from Toronto, Barney got the bump, which is hardly surprising considering his .214/.273/.259 batting line in 121 plate appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City this season. Barney's glove has carried him throughout his career, but it may not be enough to land him on another club's 40-man roster.
