Astros' Misael Tamarez: Reassigned to MiLB camp

Tamarez was re-assigned to minor-league camp Tuesday by the Astros, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Tamarez is one of the best pitching prospects in the Houston system. The right-hander struck out 142 hitters in 121.1 innings of work between Double-A Corpus Christi and Triple-A Sugar Land last season. The right-hander will start the 2023 season in the minors, but with two plus pitches, he could help Houston before the end of the year.
