Twins' Alec Asher: Inks MiLB deal with Minnesota
Asher signed a minor-league contract with the Twins on Tuesday.
After being released by the Rockies in mid-March, Asher pitched in the independent Atlantic League during the 2019 season. The right-hander spent most of 2018 with Triple-A Columbus, where he recorded a 6.05 ERA and 1.60 WHIP with a 49:36 K:BB across 16 starts. Asher will have the opportunity to work with the big-league coaching staff before likely returning to the minors until potentially earning another shot with the Twins' bullpen.

Rockies' Alec Asher: Reaches deal with Colorado
Asher agreed to a minor-league contract with the Rockies, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
The right-hander split the 2018 season between the Dodgers and Brewers organizations, logging all but two of his 24 appearances (17 starts) at the Triple-A level. While with the Brewers' Pacific Coast League affiliate at Colorado Springs, Asher posted a 6.05 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 96.2 innings, numbers that don't portend well for him finding success at Coors Field if he should get a look with the Rockies at any point in 2019.

Brewers' Alec Asher: Outrighted to Triple-A
Asher cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Friday.
Asher was designated for assignment back on Tuesday to make room for Jake Thompson. The 26-year-old's 5.42 career ERA through 119.2 major-league innings wasn't appealing enough for another team to claim him, so he'll remain with the Brewers in an organizational depth role.

Brewers' Alec Asher: Called up by Milwaukee
Asher was recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Thursday.
Asher will provide reinforcements within the Brewers' bullpen as the club gears up for five games in four days. He's only appeared in one contest with the major-league team this season, so don't expect him to serve out of any high-leverage situations. Across 62.1 innings with Colorado Springs, he's logged a 4.62 ERA and 1.47 WHIP.

Brewers' Alec Asher: Returns to majors
The Brewers recalled Asher from Triple-A Colorado Springs on Saturday.
Asher was designated for assignment by the Brewers on April 19 and then outrighted to Colorado Springs after clearing waivers. The 26-year-old started three games for Colorado Springs, allowing six runs (three earned) on 12 hits and four walks over 14 innings. Asher has a career 7.4 K/9 in the minors and doesn't have much fantasy appeal. He could serve in a long-relief role for the Brewers after the team used six relievers to cover seven innings during Friday's victory.

Brewers' Alec Asher: Outrighted to Triple-A
The Brewers outrighted Asher to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Sunday, MLB.com reports.

Brewers' Alec Asher: Heads to Milwaukee
Asher was claimed off waivers by the Brewers on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of TrueBlueLA.com reports.
The right-hander was claimed off waivers by the Dodgers just 12 days earlier, but he'll head to Milwaukee now that the Dodgers deemed him unworthy of a 40-man roster spot. Asher has a good amount of big-league experience and allowed a single run in his first start with Triple-A Oklahoma City this season, though it looks like he'll be nothing more than an organizational depth piece for the Brewers.

Orioles' Alec Asher: Recalled from Triple-A
Asher was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.
With Miguel Castro landing on the bereavement list, Asher was summoned back tot he big club to offer an extra bullpen arm. Asher has worked primarily as a starter since being sent back to the minors, so he'll offer length out of the Orioles' bullpen. He compiled a 5.53 ERA through 55.1 innings during multiple stints with the big club earlier in the season, so he'll likely stick to lower-leverage situations.
