Twins' Rylan Bannon: Dealt to Minnesota
The Twins acquired Bannon from the Mets on Tuesday.
The 28-year-old journeyman didn't earn a call-up to the Mets before the All-Star break, despite getting on base at a .392 clip while slugging 15 home runs and seven stolen bases across 342 plate appearances at Triple-A Syracuse. The banged-up Twins could have a greater need for a utility player like Bannon, though he'll most likely report to Triple-A St. Paul to begin his stint with a new organization.

Astros' Rylan Bannon: Gets call-up
The Astros recalled Bannon from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Bannon appeared in four games at the major-league level last season, going just 2-for-14 at the plate in that time. He's fared a bit better in Triple-A, slashing .242/.361/.406 over 462 plate appearances since 2022. His promotion comes in the wake of Chas McCormick (back) being placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Astros' Rylan Bannon: Sent to Triple-A
The Astros optioned Bannon to Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Bannon was battling for a spot on the Astros bench in spring training, but the 26-year-old will begin the season with Sugar Land instead. He has a shot to be up with Houston this summer as a bench option, but he's unlikely to be a regular with the club in 2023 or beyond.

Astros' Rylan Bannon: Picked up by Houston
The Astros claimed Bannon off waivers from the Cubs on Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Two weeks after being claimed by the Cubs from Atlanta, Bannon will now be on the move to Houston. Bannon did well during his time in Triple-A last season, though it's hard to imagine him getting consistent playing time in the Astros' star-studded infield. If anything, he'll compete with Mauricio Dubon and David Hensley for reps as a backup infielder.

Cubs' Rylan Bannon: Claimed by Cubs
The Cubs claimed Bannon off waivers from Atlanta on Friday.
Bannon spent the vast majority of last season in Triple-A, slashing .249/.367/.421 and collecting 77 RBI through 411 plate appearances. Infield depth was an issue for the Cubs last season, so it's possible that Bannon makes a few appearances for Chicago in 2023, but he will more than likely serve primarily as a minor-league piece.

Bannon was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Bannon was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Braves' Rylan Bannon: Claimed by Atlanta
Atlanta claimed Bannon off waivers from the Dodgers and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.
Bannon finds a new home after the Dodgers designated him for assignment Friday. The infielder's only four games of MLB action came in May with the Orioles, and it would likely take more injuries in Atlanta's big-league infield for Bannon to get a call-up.

Dodgers' Rylan Bannon: Designated for assignment
Bannon was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Bannon was claimed off waivers by the Dodgers on Monday after being designated for assignment by the Orioles, but he didn't even get the chance to play in a minor-league game before he was designated again. As a 26-year-old with just four major-league games under his belt, he may not generate much interest on waivers this time around.

Bannon was added to the 26-man roster as a replacement for reliever Mike Baumann, who was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk with Baltimore needing to reduce its pitching staff to 13 men ahead of Monday's MLB-imposed deadline. While he's up with the Orioles, Bannon is expected to serve as the primary backup at third base to Tyler Nevin, who is filling an everyday role at the position while Ramon Urias (oblique) is on the 10-day injured list.
