General manager Jeff Luhnow has announced that the Astros have designated for assignment third baseman Matt Dominguez to make room on the 40-man roster for Carlos Correa, per Sportstalk 790.
The career of Dominguez has taken a precipitous drop after he served as a starter in each of he last two seasons. He lost the job to Luis Valbuena to start this year and is batting .251 at Triple-A Fresno. He did, however, drive in seven runs on Sunday.
