Astros' Glenn Otto: Catches on with Houston
The Houston Astros signed Glenn Otto (undisclosed) to a minor-league contract Thursday.Before he was released by the Padres on July 28, Otto hadn't pitched since July 12 after he was placed on Triple-A El Paso's injured list. While the current state of the right-hander's health isn't yet known, the Astros will bring him into the organization with the hope he can provide depth at Triple-A Sugar Land. Otto previously made 39 appearances at the big-league level with the Rangers from 2021 through 2023, logging a 5.62 ERA over 169.2 innings.

Glenn Otto: Cut loose by San Diego
The Padres released Glenn Otto (undisclosed) on Sunday.The Padres announced earlier Sunday that Otto had been designated for assignment, and the right-hander quickly passed through waivers before San Diego elected to let him explore options elsewhere rather than outrighting him to the minors. Otto made 39 appearances (33 starts) with the Rangers over the past three seasons but didn't see any game action for the Padres in 2024 after opening the season on the injured list due to a right teres major strain before he was optioned to Triple-A El Paso in late June once his rehab assignment concluded. He was later placed on El Paso's IL on July 21 with an unspecified injury, so Otto may not catch on with another team until he's back to full health.

Padres' Glenn Otto: On Triple-A IL
Triple-A El Paso placed Glenn Otto on its 7-day injured list Sunday with an unspecified injury.Otto remains on the San Diego Padres' 40-man roster and began the season on the club's 15-day injured list while recovering from a right teres major strain. After Otto made five rehab appearances between El Paso and the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, the Padres activated him from the IL and optioned him to the Triple-A club. Since then, Otto had made six appearances for El Paso and struck out 11 over 8.2 innings while giving up three earned runs on eight hits and six walks, but he's now been shut down again with an injury. It's unclear whether he's dealing with a setback related to the previous shoulder issue or if he's tending to a new concern.

Glenn Otto (shoulder) has given up three earned runs on one hit and four walks while striking out four across three innings between his two appearances since shifting his rehab assignment to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.Otto has 33 big-league starts on his resume, but given that he hasn't covered more than two innings in any of his five rehab appearances between Triple-A and the rookie-level Arizona Complex League thus far, the San Diego Padres look to be preparing him for a relief role upon his return from the 15-day injured list. The right-hander has been on the shelf all season with a right teres major strain.

Padres' Glenn Otto: Claimed by Friars
The San Diego Padres claimed Glenn Otto off waivers from the Rangers on Thursday.Otto was DFA'd by Texas on Tuesday after accumulating a 10.13 ERA and 1.88 WHIP through 10.2 innings in the majors. However, he's been solid in Triple-A with a 3.38 ERA and 1.07 WHIP through 29.1 frames, so the Padres will take a flier on him as a bullpen depth piece. Ben Gamel was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
