Diamondbacks' Anthony Recker: Reassigned to minors camp
The Arizona Diamondbacks reassigned Anthony Recker to their minor-league camp Tuesday, David Adler of MLB.com reports.Recker was no better than fifth in the pecking order at catcher during camp with Alex Avila, Jeff Mathis, Chris Herrmann and John Ryan Murphy all outranking him on the organizational depth chart. It's expected that Murphy will be optioned to Triple-A Reno before spring training ends, so Recker looks set to serve as his backup.

Diamondbacks' Anthony Recker: Joins Diamondbacks at camp
Anthony Recker signed a minor-league contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday which includes an invitation to spring training, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.Recker spent most of the season at Triple-A, posting a combined .244/.312/.392 slash line across 60 games split between Gwinnett (Braves) and Rochester (Twins). He'll likely spend the year in the minors as organizational catching depth given his career .199 batting average over seven major-league seasons.

Twins' Anthony Recker: Off 40-man roster
Anthony Recker was outrighted off the Minnesota Twins' 40-man roster Friday, LaVelle E. Neal III of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.The 33-year-old spent the bulk of the season with Triple-A Gwinnett before being traded to the Twins along with Jaime Garcia. Recker slashed .223/.301/.381 in 139 at-bats for Gwinnett this season, and posted even worse numbers in his few opportunities with the Braves. The veteran catcher is unlikely to be more than organizational depth for Minnesota and currently holds no fantasy value.

Braves' Anthony Recker: Sent back to minors
Anthony Recker was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.With Kurt Suzuki returning from the bereavement list ahead of Monday's contest, Recker's services were no longer needed at the big-league level. The 33-year-old didn't appear at all during this most recent cup of coffee with Atlanta, so he'll head back to the minors to act as organizational depth.

Braves' Anthony Recker: DFA'd on Sunday
Anthony Recker was designated for assignment Sunday, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.The Atlanta Braves needed a spot on their 40-man roster for Matt Adams, and Recker drew the short straw. The 33-year-old catcher went 1-for-7 for Atlanta earlier this season and was hitting only .178/.288/.444 in 14 games for Triple-A Gwinnett, so assuming he goes unclaimed on waivers, Recker will probably return to Gwinnett.

Braves' Anthony Recker: Little playing time in 2017
Anthony Recker is 1-for-7 and has started one game in 2017.As the Atlanta Braves' third catcher, Recker's lack of playing time isn't too shocking. The 33-year-old slashed .278/.394/.433 in 112 plate appearances for Atlanta last season, but he's taken a back seat to Tyler Flowers and Kurt Suzuki this season. Recker saw a minor uptick in at-bats while Flowers battled a hamstring ailment earlier this season, but with both catchers ahead of him now healthy, there are few playing opportunities available.
