"The Los Angeles Dodgers sent Ryan Fitzgerald outright to Triple-A Oklahoma City after he cleared waivers. Fitzgerald was claimed off waivers from the Minnesota Twins earlier this month before getting designated for assignment to make room on the 40-man roster for Andy Ibáñez, who signed a one-year contract with the Dodgers worth $1.2 million. Fitzgerald was previously designated for assignment by the Twins at the beginning of the year in order to make room on their 40-man roster for Eric Wagaman."
"Fitzgerald made his MLB debut with the Twins last year, appearing in 24 games and hitting .196/.302/.457 with four home runs and nine RBI. While with Triple-A St. Paul, he batted .277/.367/.469 with 16 doubles, seven home runs and 31 RBI. The 31-year-old has experience playing first base, second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield positions. The bulk of Fitzgerald's time in the Minors has come as a shortstop."
