| According to the Post Dispatch, the Cardinals have place left-handed reliever Royce Ring on waivers. He has the option of reporting to Triple-A or electing free agency. |
Our View: Ring became obsolete after the Cards acquired relievers Trever Miller and Denys Reyes. Not many teams have a need for three lefty specialists and Ring is clearly behind the other two talent-wise.

| Royce Ring retired all four Marlins hitters he faced while striking out two on Wednesday. He appeared against the heart of Florida's batting order, according to MLB.com. |
Our View: Ring is competing for the lefty-specialist role with the Cardinals, and he took a nice step today. He holds next to no fantasy value.

|
| The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the Cardinals have signed lefty reliever Royce Ring to a one-year deal. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. |

|
| Royce Ring has been designated for assignment by the Braves, according to MLB.com. |
Our View: The left-handed specialist maintained a 8.46 ERA and 1.88 WHIP over 22.1 innings of relief, and his designation holds no fantasy significance.

| The Braves acquired Royce Ring from the Padres Tuesday in exchange for Wil Ledezma and Will Startup. Ring holds a 3.60 ERA in 15 games this year, and he'll work in middle relief for Atlanta. |

| The Padres optioned Royce Ring to Triple-A Portland on Monday, according to the AP. "As disappointed as he was to go down, I let him know that, hey, there's good opportunity, at some point you'll be back up," manager Bud Black said. |
Our View: He'll get a chance to return to the majors soon enough.
