The Houston Astros have designated Carlos Gomez for assignment.
"I know I didn't do my best," Gomez told the Houston Chronicle. "I wish the best to them. They have a great team and organization."
Gomez had a .210 average in 85 games for the Astros this season.
"This has nothing to do with Carlos' effort," Jeff Luhnow said. "Carlos has put in 100 percent. We all see how much he enjoys playing the game and how much he cares about what happens. It's one of those situations where, for whatever reason, it didn't work out here in the way he wanted to and the way we wanted to."
