The Astros have designated 28-year old righty swinging infielder Edwin Maysonet for assignment. Maysonet played in 90 games in Rookie+AAA-ball this year and he was 79 of 319 (.248 avg, .637 OPS) with 31 runs scored, 2 homers, 40 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Maysonet has played in 46 games in his career with the Astros and he was 21 of 76 (.276 avg, .659 OPS) with 9 runs scored, 1 homers and 7 RBIs. With all of the problems the Astros had in the middle infield they never called up Maysonet this year which shows what they really think of him.
