Grimm was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

After a rough start to the season, Grimm was more effective in early May, as he allowed just one unearned run in 8.1 innings over seven relief appearances to begin the month. However, the right-hander will be cast off the 40-man roster after giving up two runs in 2.1 innings over his last two outings. Grimm has posted an 8.68 ERA and 1.90 WHIP over 40 relief appearances in the majors since 2018, so it remains to be seen if he will draw any interest on the waiver wire, and if he remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed.
