Indians' Bryan Lavastida: Reports to Triple-A

Lavastida gets his second promotion of the season after beginning the 2021 campaign at High-A Lake County before moving on to Akron in late July. Over the past month with Akron, the 22-year-old backstop slashed .300/.380/.463 with a 9.7 percent walk rate and a 21.5 percent strikeout rate in 23 games.
