Rangers' Kyle Barraclough: Gets minors deal from Rangers
The Rangers signed Barraclough to a minor-league contract Monday.
Barraclough -- who has been assigned to Triple-A Round Rock -- held a 12.91 ERA in three relief appearances with the Red Sox last season. The 33-year-old was used in the rotation last season at Triple-A Worcester, which was the first time he had been deployed as a starter on a regular basis in professional ball. It's not clear what role the Rangers have planned for him at Round Rock.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Remains in organization
Barraclough cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
The right-hander was designated for assignment by Boston on Sunday but will remain in the organization after he passed through waivers unclaimed. Barraclough made just three appearances in the big leagues in 2023 and allowed 11 earned runs over 7.2 innings, though he fared better at Triple-A with a 3.65 ERA in 14 outings (13 starts).

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: DFA'd by Sox
The Red Sox designated Barraclough for assignment Sunday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
Now that Zack Kelly (elbow) has returned from the 60-day IL, Barraclough will lose his spot on the 40-man roster to create room for Kelly. Barraclough made just three appearances for the Red Sox this season, giving up 11 runs over 7.2 frames.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Returns to minors
Barraclough was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Barraclough was called up by the Red Sox on Monday and was lit up for 10 runs across 4.1 innings of long relief to take the loss against the Astros, so it's not a major surprise he's not sticking on the big-league roster. The 33-year-old has pitched well as a starter at Triple-A this season with a 2.43 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 41:23 K:BB over 55.2 innings.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Back with Boston
Barraclough was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Monday.
Barraclough will assume the 26-man active roster spot of lefty Chris Murphy, who was optioned to Worcester in a corresponding move. The 33-year-old right-hander appeared in two games with the Red Sox earlier this month and recorded a win, a 2.70 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP while working 3.1 innings. He had slotted back into the Triple-A rotation after being optioned Aug. 13 and should provide the Red Sox with some extra length out of the bullpen upon rejoining the big club.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Optioned to Triple-A
The Red Sox optioned Barraclough to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
With the return of Garrett Whitlock (elbow) from the injured list, Barraclough will head back to Triple-A in order to clear a space in Boston's bullpen. The 33-year-old righty surrendered one run in 3.1 innings across two games in his brief MLB stint and could return to Boston later this season if the team is ever in need of a fresh bullpen arm.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Added to big-league roster
The Red Sox selected Barraclough's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
The longtime reliever has actually been working as a starter with Worcester and he's faring quite well with a 2.57 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 28:19 K:BB over 42 innings. Barraclough could be a candidate to eat some innings, if needed, Wednesday versus the Royals with Nick Pivetta making a start on three days' rest.

Red Sox's Kyle Barraclough: Finds work with Boston
Barraclough agreed to a minor-league contract with the Red Sox on Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
After electing free agency following the 2022 season, Barraclough had most recently been pitching for the High Point Rockers of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, but he'll make his return to affiliated ball as a member of the Red Sox organization. Barraclough will most likely settle into the bullpen at Triple-A Worcester, hoping to string together enough quality performances to earn a call-up to Boston. The 33-year-old right-hander made eight appearances at the MLB level for the Angels in 2022, logging a 3.00 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 9:4 K:BB in nine innings.

Angels' Kyle Barraclough: Loses 40-man spot
The Angels designated Barraclough for assignment Monday.
He'll cede his spot on the 40-man roster to outfielder Dillon Thomas, whom the Angels claimed off waivers from the Astros on Monday. Before he was demoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on May 30, the 32-year-old reliever made eight appearances for the Angels and gave up three earned runs on seven hits and four walks over nine innings.

Angels' Kyle Barraclough: Heads to minors
Barraclough was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Barraclough has accrued a 3.00 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over nine innings so far this season. After starting the campaign with five straight scoreless appearances, he's surrendered three runs over his last three outings and will make his way to Triple-A following Monday's transaction. The team has yet to announce a corresponding move.

Angels' Kyle Barraclough: Joins big-league roster
Barraclough was called up by the Angels on Saturday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Barraclough owns a career 3.63 ERA over parts of six big-league seasons, though that number jumps to 5.59 across 46.2 frames since the start of the 2019 season. He'll give the Angels another arm in the bullpen, but he'll have to improve on that recent performance if he's to stick around.

Angels' Kyle Barraclough: Signs with Angels
Barraclough has signed a minor-league contract with the Angels, Chris Kilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.
Barraclough made 10 relief appearances with the Twins in 2021 but spent most of the year in the minors. Across 32 outings at the Triple-A level, he logged a 2.75 ERA and 1.04 WHIP in 39.1 innings. The right-hander will likely compete for a spot in the major-league bullpen this spring.

Twins' Kyle Barraclough: Sent to Triple-A
Barraclough was outrighted to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.
Barraclough finished the season on the big-league roster, but the Twins have now cleared him off the 40-man roster as he'll hit free agency in the offseason. The right-hander appeared in 10 big-league games and had a 5.54 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 18:8 K:BB across 13 innings.

Twins' Kyle Barraclough: Joins big-league bullpen
The Twins recalled Barraclough from Triple-A St. Paul ahead of Monday's game against the Yankees.
He'll move up to the 28-man active roster as a replacement for outfielder/designated hitter Brent Rooker (personal), who was placed on the paternity list. Expect the veteran reliever to serve in a low-leverage role out of the Minnesota bullpen while he's with the big club.

Twins' Kyle Barraclough: Optioned to Triple-A
Barraclough was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.
The 31-year-old righty hasn't looked good in his three major-league appearances this season, allowing four runs in 3.1 innings of work. He's been far better in the minors, striking out 38.7 percent of opposing batters en route to a 3.00 ERA, but the struggling Twins may prioritize giving opportunities to younger players down the stretch.

Twins' Kyle Barraclough: Joins major-league roster
Barraclough's contract was selected by the Twins on Thursday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Barraclough signed a minor-league contract with the Twins in mid-June and posted a 2.86 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 22 innings across 18 relief appearances at Triple-A St. Paul. The 31-year-old will now be available to make his first major-league appearance since 2019 as part of Minnesota's bullpen.

Twins' Kyle Barraclough: Links up with Twins
Barraclough signed a minor-league contract with the Twins on Sunday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.
The right-hander was released by the Yankees on Friday and didn't take long to latch on with a new organization. Barraclough worked at Triple-A before being let go and posted a 3.21 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 24:11 K:BB across 14 innings.

Kyle Barraclough: Parts ways with Yankees
Barraclough was released by the Yankees on Friday, Conor Foley of The Scranton Times-Tribune reports.
The right-hander inked a minor-league deal with New York in February and has been at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre all season, but he's now heading to free agency. Barraclough pitched well enough with a 3.21 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 24:11 K:BB across 14 innings, so he could receive interest from other organizations, though it's worth noting he hasn't pitched in the majors since 2019.

Yankees' Kyle Barraclough: Bound for MiLB camp
The Yankees reassigned Barraclough to their minor-league camp Wednesday.
Barraclough was previously a high-leverage reliever for the Marlins as recently as the 2018 season, but his effectiveness has waned over the past two years. After being granted his release from the Padres last summer, Barraclough didn't appear in affiliated ball in 2020, and he'll likely have to prove himself at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before garnering a serious look with the Yankees.

Yankees' Kyle Barraclough: Gets minors deal with Yankees
Barraclough signed with the Yankees as a non-roster invitee Tuesday, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
Barraclough has been a high-leverage reliever in the past, posting a 2.87 ERA and a 31.7 percent strikeout rate over the first two years of his career. He struggled to a 4.74 ERA and 24.4 percent strikeout rate over the next two seasons, however, and he failed to pitch a single inning in 2020 after being cut in July by the Padres. He could play a role for the Yankees if they can help him recapture his early career form, but his career 14.1 percent walk rate will likely continue to sink him unless he can get his previously elite strikeout numbers back.
