Right-hander is headed back to the Padres organization, the pitcher himself announced via Instagram. Crismatt, who was released from a minor league deal with the Rangers earlier this week, signed a minor league contract with San Diego, Annie Helibrunn of the San Diego Union-Tribune. The 29-year-old Crismatt has logged 177 innings acro s parts of five MLB seasons with four different Jarrod Uthoff Jersey teams but the vast majority of that work (159 2/3 innings) has come as a member of the Padres. He suited up for San Diego from 2021-23 and logged a combined 3.83 ERA with a 21.1% strikeout rate, 7.7% walk rate and six holds in that time. Crismatt made his big league debut with the 2020 Cardinals and has also pitched for the D-backs and Dodgers since leaving San Diego (in addition to this years Triple-A stint with Texas top affiliate). The Dodgers signed Crismatt to a minor league deal over the winter and gave him seven innings of work in the big leagues early this season. He allowed a pair of runs on seven hits and no walks with six strikeouts in that L.A. cameo but was neverthele s designated for a signment and pa sed through waivers. He opted for free agency, signed a minor league pact with the Rangers in late May, and spent about a month with their Round Rock affiliate. Crismatt has been tagged for a 6.46 ERA in 23 2/3 Triple-A frames between the Dodgers and Rangers this season, though he sports a much stronger K-BB profile than that mark would suggest: a 23.4% strikeout rate and tiny 3.8% walk rate. Hes been plagued by a BABIP near .400 between those two stops, which has helped to inflate his earned run average. For now, Crismatt will head to El Paso to serve as a depth option for the Friars. But given their familiarity with the right-hander and his solid big league track record a 3.71 ERA overall in his 177 MLB innings with solid strikeout and walk rates it wouldnt be a surprise if he got a look in the majors at some point in the relatively near future.
