EDGE Analysis

Calhoun cleared waivers after being designated for assignment a little less than a week ago, and he will remain in the Rangers' organization for the time being. He has struggled at the plate both at the major-league and Triple-A levels this season, but the former top prospect will continue trying to work his way back to the top level.

Calhoun was designated for assignment Sunday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun mentioned that he hoped to be traded after he was optioned to Triple-A a month ago, and now the other 29 teams will have the option of claiming him off waivers. He never hit enough in the majors (career .241/.300/.407 slash line) to make up for his subpar defense. Calhoun slashed .231/.282/.415 with four home runs in 16 games at Triple-A.

Calhoun said Sunday that he hopes to be traded at some point after being optioned to Triple-A Round Rock, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun hit just .136 with a home run, three doubles, seven runs and two RBI over 18 games with the Rangers early in the season, but his .344 xwOBA suggests that he was relatively unlucky. While the 27-year-old will report to Round Rock after he was part of Sunday's roster cuts, he hopes to have a strong performance in the minors that he can parlay into a change of scenery. Calhoun hit a career-high 21 homers for Texas in 2019, but he's gone yard just eight times since then and has slashed .223/.288/.339 over the last three seasons.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun served in the strong side of a platoon as the designated hitter early in the year, but he went 0-for-11 with a run, two walks and two strikeouts over the last four games. He'll attempt to sort things out in the minors, while Andy Ibanez, Charlie Culberson and Nick Solak should see additional playing time.

Calhoun is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

With southpaw Kyle Muller on the bump for Atlanta in the series finale, Calhoun will take a seat for the second straight game. Andy Ibanez will handle designated-hitter duties in Calhoun's stead.
