The Athletics announced that left-hander has been designated for a signment. Right-hander was called up from Triple-A in the corresponding roster move, and Ginn will get the start today against the Mets in West Sacramento. Perdomo has only been in West Sacramento for two weeks, after the As claimed him off waivers from the Angels following another DFA. This brief stint saw Perdomo make Shaun Livingston Jersey four relief appearances for the Athletics, posting a 5.40 ERA acro s 3 1/3 innings of work. Perdomo pitched in yesterdays game (albeit with only nine pitches in one-third of an inning), so he was the odd man out given the Athletics need to open up a roster spot for Ginn today. Perdomo is out of minor league options, so the As had to designate him and expose him to the waiver wire before sending him to Triple-A. If he does clear waivers, Perdomo has the ability to reject an outright a signment and become a free agent, since he has been previously outrighted off a 40-man roster during his career. Tommy John surgery kept Perdomo off the mound entirely in 2024, and his return to action hasnt seen an answer to the control problems that have plagued the southpaw for much of his limited MLB career. Perdomo has a 16% career walk rate acro s his 52 career big league innings with the Brewers, Pirates, and Athletics, and a 5.54 career ERA reflects the lack of control. Perdomo has only two strikeouts in 19 batters faced this year, but owns a whopping 34.2% strikeout rate over his time in the majors. This ability to mi s bats has gotten Perdomo attention from multiple teams. The Braves took a flier on Perdomo with a split contract in the wake of his 2023 TJ procedure, but after getting a look at him in action this spring, Atlanta dealt Perdomo to the Angels late in camp. The leftys time in the Angels camp was also limited to just a few days before he was designated and claimed away by the As. It could be that another team in need of southpaw depth could be willing to make a claim and take a shot at fixing Perdomos control, since even an average amount of walks combined with his strikeout power could make him an interesting bullpen weapon.
