The 29-year-old backstop was then optioned to Triple-A Buffalo. He’ll add some much needed catching depth in the organization while Alejandro Kirk is shelved. Tyler Fitzgerald was designated for assignment in a corresponding move to clear a spot on the Jays’ 40-man roster.

The Rangers needed to clear a spot on their 40-man roster for the promotion of Peyton Gray on Thursday and unfortunately MacIver was the odd man out this time around. There’s a decent chance that he slips through waivers unclaimed and continues to function as extra catching depth for the Rangers at Triple-A Round Rock.

It’s getting to that point in the spring where teams are trying to get their rosters ready for Opening Day, so large batches of cuts are the norm. There are no major surprises in this group. Bride could’ve possibly won a bench spot with a strong performance in the spring. Díaz will stay with the Rangers and try to work through his issues at the Triple-A level.

MacIver, a longtime Rockies prospect, made his major league debut with the A’s last season and hit .186/.252/.324 in 111 plate appearances as a backup catcher. He has options remaining, so the Rangers are probably looking at him as Triple-A insurance, assuming that they carry on with their Kyle Higashioka-Jonah Heim combo behind the plate.

The 28-year-old backstop was making his big league debut on Sunday and had been 0-for-3 heading into the eighth inning. There, the A’s tied the game on an RBI triple off the bat of Lawrence Butler before MacIver lined an 0-1 cutter from Strahm into center field to give the A’s the lead. MacIver also cut down Johan Rojas attempting to steal second base in the ninth inning to end the ballgame. He isn’t likely to see enough playing time or deliver enough production to make him relevant from a fantasy perspective, but it was still a very memorable debut for MacIver.
