Muzziotti cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.
Analysis: Muzziotti passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment by Philadelphia last week, so he'll remain in the organization. The 25-year-old received his first taste of the big leagues last season and went 1-for-7 in nine games, though he spent most of the campaign at Lehigh Valley, where he had a .762 OPS in 524 plate appearances.
Simon Muzziotti Designated for assignment
Muzziotti was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Wednesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Muzziotti saw spot duty with the Phils in 2022 but spent all of 2023 at Triple-A Lehigh Valley, slashing .296/.358/.404 with seven homers and 26 steals. The 25-year-old's power is lacking, but he can play a good center field and doesn't strike out much, so there could be interest in him on waivers.
