Right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson passed through waivers unclaimed after his recent DFA, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. He’s been assigned outright to Triple-A Buffalo.

He’ll take the active roster spot of outfielder Dane Myers, who has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder contusion.
