INF Russ Canzler was designated for assignment Friday to clear room on the 40-man roster for INF Jeff Keppinger.


Canzler can resign with the Rays if he clears waivers. If so, he will be reassigned to Triple A Durham.

Canzler, who joined the Rays organization as a minor league free agent last offseason, was the International League MVP after batting .314 for the Bulls with 18 home runs and 83 RBIs.

In his first year playing above the Double A level, Canzler was the Bulls MVP and was named to the IL’s mid-season and post-season all-star games.

Canzler was called up to the Rays on Sept. 11. He appeared in three games as a pinch-hitter each time and had one hit.
