Huang was reassigned Tuesday to minor-league camp by the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Huang was selected in the minor-league portion of the Rule 5 draft by the Pirates in December. The right-hander made 23 appearances -- 13 of those starts -- for Triple-A Sacramento with a 4.40 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 89:31 K:BB across 71.2 innings. He provides depth for the pitching staff, but will need to be added to the 40-man roster to help Pittsburgh in 2023.

The Pirates selected Huang in the minor-league Rule 5 draft last week.

EDGE Analysis

Huang previously made four appearances in the majors with the Rangers in 2019, but he served as pitching depth in the Giants' organization this past season. In 23 appearances (13 starts) at Triple-A Sacramento, Huang posted a 4.40 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 89:31 K:BB in 71.2 innings. Though he's likely to start the 2023 campaign at Triple-A Indianapolis, the 29-year-old right-hander could have a clearer path back to the majors in Pittsburgh than he had in San Francisco in 2022.

The Giants signed Huang to a minor-league contract Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Huang will return to affiliated ball in 2022 after he didn't pitch last season following his release from the Rangers organization in 2020. All four of his career big-league appearances came with Texas back in 2019, with the Taiwanese right-hander giving up two earned runs on eight hits and five walks over 5.2 innings.

Huang was released by the Rangers on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Huang had been working at the Rangers' alternate training site after serving as a non-roster invitee during camp, but he'll search for a new home following his release. The right-hander appeared in four games for Texas last year, allowing two runs on eight hits and five walks while striking out two over 5.2 innings.

Huang was added to the Rangers' 60-man player pool Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Huang, who is not on the 40-man roster, shuttled between the upper levels of the minors and the majors last season. He made four appearances with Texas in what was his first taste of The Show. The right-hander was non-tendered and then re-signed with the Rangers during the offseason. He provides bullpen depth.

Huang signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training.

EDGE Analysis

Huang made his major-league debut in 2019, posting a 3.18 ERA over 5.2 innings pitched for the Rangers. The right-hander was not tendered a contract by the team, but he will return to the organization, likely with Triple-A Nashville. The 26-year-old had a lackluster performance at the Triple-A level last year, recording a 6.10 ERA with a 1.58 WHIP over 31 innings.

Huang was non-tendered by the Rangers on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Huang appeared in four games for Texas in 2019, allowing two runs on eight hits and five walks while fanning two over 5.2 innings out of the bullpen. He's likely headed for a minor-league deal after being cut loose Monday.

Huang was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huang made just two appearances during his most recent stint with the Rangers, allowing three runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks in 2.1 innings of work. Jeffrey Springs will take his place on the roster and in the bullpen.

Huang was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Huang will take the roster spot of Shawn Kelley (infection), who was placed on the injured list ahead of Thursday's series opener against the Astros. The right-hander has made a pair of appearances for the Rangers this season, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out one across 3.1 innings of relief.

The Rangers optioned Huang to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huang was the chosen casualty with the Rangers requiring a roster spot for Drew Smyly (arm), who was activated from the 10-day injured ahead of his start Sunday against the Blue Jays. During his week-and-a-half-long stint with the big club, Huang appeared in one game and tossed a scoreless inning in relief.
