Munoz cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Sugar Land.

Apr 9Rotowire

Because Munoz was selected by the Astros in the Rule 5 Draft this winter, he had to be offered back to Cincinnati after clearing waivers. However, the Reds had non-tendered the 25-year-old before the Rule 5 Draft, so it's not too surprising that they declined to bring him back. Munoz will now officially remain in the Astros organization and provide bullpen depth at Triple-A Sugar Land.

The Astros designated Munoz for assignment Monday.

Apr 6Rotowire

A Rule 5 selection over the winter, Munoz won a spot in the Houston bullpen coming out of spring training but will wind up losing his spot on the 40-man roster less than two weeks into the season after yielding seven earned runs over four innings across three appearances. Assuming he clears waivers, Houston will need to offer the 25-year-old righty back to Cincinnati.

The Astros selected Munoz with the eighth pick of the Rule 5 Draft on Wednesday.

Dec 10Rotowire

Munoz, 25, actually has plenty of MLB experience, unlike most Rule 5 picks. The hard-throwing righty logged 83.2 innings in the majors for Miami in 2024 before spending 2025 in the Cardinals organization, working primarily as a reliever at Triple-A. Munoz had a 3.28 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 76:30 K:BB in 57.2 innings last season at Triple-A.

The Reds did not tender Munoz a contract for 2026 on Friday, making him a free agent.

Nov 21Rotowire

The right-hander was claimed off waivers by the Reds in early November, but the organization won't retain him through Friday's non-tender deadline. Munoz pitched in eight games for the Cardinals last year and had an 8.18 ERA and 14:9 K:BB over 11 innings.

The Reds claimed Munoz off waivers from the Cardinals on Thursday.

Nov 6Rotowire

Munoz gave up 10 earned runs in 11 innings with the Cardinals in 2025 but finished the minor-league season with a 3.28 ERA and 1.33 WHIP through 57.2 frames at Memphis. The Reds, evidently intrigued by his Triple-A statline, will now bring the 25-year-old in to add depth to their pitching staff, but because he has no more options remaining, Munoz will need to make the Opening Day roster in order to stay on the 40-man roster.
