INF Danny Worth was selected from Triple-A Fresno Tuesday and started at third base, batting second and going 1-for-4. Worth was hitting .340-8-36 for the Grizzlies with an OPS of .998, fueled by 37 walks in 191 at-bats and a slugging percentage of .550. The former Detroit Tiger figures to see plenty of action this week as Houston will face three left-handed starters in five games. |

Worth will provide the Diamondbacks with organizational depth at second base, third base and shortstop. He isn't much of a base stealer and has never shown much promise with the bat. |

Worth signed a minor league deal with the Diamondbacks on Monday that includes an invite to spring training, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports. |
Worth reportedly had multiple minor league offers including one in which the team requested he become a pitcher. He spent 2014 mostly with Triple-A Toledo, batting .211/.296/.300 with one home run and 18 RBI along with nine stolen bases. He seems to be facing an uphill battle for a roster spot heading into spring training, but a strong showing could give him a chance to nab a utility spot given Worth's ability to second, shortstop and third. |
Mon Oct 6 2014 | 14:26 | Worth has become minor league free agent |
Worth has become a minor league free agent, MLive's Chris Iott reports. |
The 29-year-old was designated for assignment back in June, and after eight years in the Tigers' system, his time in Detroit has likely come to an end. Look for Worth to try to catch on as a middle infielder for another system's Triple-A club. |
Sat Jun 7 2014 | 13:28 | Danny Worth accepts assignment to Triple-A |
Chris Iott of MLive.com reports that Danny Worth has accepted his outright assignment to Triple-A Toledo. |
He had the opportunity to refuse the assignment and become a free agent, but elected instead to remain with the organization he has spent his entire career with since being drafted in the second round in 2007. He'll continue to function as organizational depth in the infield, and perhaps bullpen. |

Danny Worth doubled against the Nationals on Thursday to maintain his .333 average this spring. |
Worth was dropped from the Tigers' 40-man roster in December, but he went unclaimed. Now he's the top internal candidate to be the team's Opening Day shortstop with Jose Iglesias hurt. Ideally, GM Dave Dombrowski will go out and get someone before then. |

Tigers designated INF Danny Worth for assignment. |
The move was made in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for the addition of Joba Chamberlain. Worth batted just .220/.299/.304 at Triple-A in 2013 while missing the last few weeks of the season with a shoulder displacement. He's a good defender at multiple infield spots, though, so it's possible someone will scoop him up. |

Worth is an incredibly slick fielding infielder with the ability to cover three different infield positions. He isn't much with the stick though, and will function mainly as a defensive replacement and occasional pinch-runner for the Tigers down the stretch. |
