Guillorme was released by the Astros on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Guillorme signed a minor-league contract with Houston on July 30, his second minor-league deal with the team in 2025, but he will now become a free agent again. The 30-year-old posted a .247 average with two home runs, 23 RBI, 25 runs scored and three stolen bases over 215 at-bats in 62 games with Triple-A Sugar Land this year.

Astros' Luis Guillorme: Back with Houston
Rotowire
The Astros re-signed Guillorme to a minor-league contract Wednesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
The veteran infielder elected free agency earlier in the week after being outrighted by Houston, but he's back in the organization on a new deal. After being called up by the Astros in mid-June, Guillorme went 3-for-20 in 12 games before going down with a hamstring injury a few weeks later.

Luis Guillorme: Bound for free agency
Rotowire
Guillorme (hamstring) elected free agency Monday after the Astros activated him from the 10-day injured list and outrighted him off the 40-man roster.
Guillorme had been on the shelf since July 2 due to a right hamstring strain, but he's healthy again after completing a two-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land last week. The Astros didn't have a spot available for Guillorme on the 26-man active roster, and after he went unclaimed off waivers, he'll now have the ability to choose his next destination. Before getting hurt, the 30-year-old utility infielder had appeared in 12 games for Houston and went 3-for-20 with a walk and two runs.

Rotowire
Guillorme (hamstring) went 0-for-3 with Triple-A Sugar Land in rehab game Wednesday.
Guillorme has been sidelined with a hamstring strain since early July but will presumably be able to return in a few days. What his role upon activation will be is unclear, however, as he managed only three hits across 20 at-bats prior to suffering the injury.

Astros' Luis Guillorme: Placed on injured list
Rotowire
The Astros placed Guillorme on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right hamstring strain, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Guillorme has struggled since joining the big club in mid-June, going just 3-for-20 at the plate across 12 games. He'll now be forced to miss at least the next 10 days while his hamstring heals, and the Astros will bring up Zack Short to fill the open spot in the infield unit.

Astros' Luis Guillorme: Officially brought up to Houston
Rotowire
The Astros selected Guillorme's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Guillorme had spent the campaign with Sugar Land until Saturday, posting a .248/.377/.317 slash line with two homers, 22 RBI and three stolen bases over 57 contests. The veteran utility man logged big-league time with three different teams last year after spending the first six years of his MLB career with the Mets. Guillorme's call-up was part of a flurry of Astros roster moves Saturday -- pitcher Spencer Arrighetti (thumb) was transferred to the 60-day IL, outfielder Jacob Melton (ankle) landed on the 10-day IL, utility man Shay Whitcomb was optioned to the minors and outfielder Cooper Hummel also had his contract selected from Triple-A.

Astros' Luis Guillorme: Links up with Houston
Rotowire
Guillorme agreed Tuesday with the Astros on a minor-league contract that includes an invitation to spring training, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Guillorme, 30, slashed just .205/.301/.273 over 77 regular-season games in 2024 while seeing action with three different teams. He's known for his steady glove and could win a reserve role in Houston, with the possibility of some starts at second base if the Astros wind up using Jose Altuve in left field extensively.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Jettisoned from 40-man roster
Rotowire
The Diamondbacks designated Guillorme for assignment Friday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.
The transaction was made in order to free up a spot on the active roster for the return of Lourdes Gurriel from the injured list. Guillorme played a decent amount while Ketel Marte was injured, but his role has been limited since Marte returned to action.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Swipes bag in loss
Rotowire
Guillorme started at second base and went 0-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to the Rockies.
The steal was Guillorme's third in 18 games since joining the Diamondbacks. Ketel Marte was given the day off, clearing the way for Guillorme to get a start. Now that Marte is back from an ankle injury and regularly playing the field, Guillorme has receded into a backup role. Tuesday's start was his first in seven contests.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Draws back into starting nine
Rotowire
Guillorme will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Astros.
The lefty-hitting Guillorme had been on the bench in each of the last three contests while the Diamondbacks opposed left-handed starters, but he'll draw back into the starting nine Sunday versus Astros righty Justin Verlander. Despite his inclusion in the lineup, Guillorme's opportunities to play against righties will likely be more limited moving forward following Ketel Marte's return from the injured list.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Sitting against lefty
Rotowire
Guillorme is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mets.
Guillorme will hit the bench along with fellow left-handed hitters Joc Pederson and Adrian Del Castillo as the Mets send southpaw David Peterson to the hill for the series finale. Kevin Newman will get the nod at second base Thursday, but Guillorme should be locked in the large side of a platoon at the position until Ketel Marte (ankle) is ready to return from the injured list.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Debuts for new team
Rotowire
Guillorme started at second base and went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 10-8 win over Miami.
Guillorme made his debut for the Diamondbacks, who signed him earlier in the week in the wake of starting second baseman Ketel Marte (ankle) landing on the injured list. He's expected to serve as the backup at the keystone while Marte is sidelined, but the lefty-swinging Guillorme provides a useful complement to primary fill-in Kevin Newman.

Diamondbacks' Luis Guillorme: Signing with Arizona
Rotowire
The Diamondbacks signed Guillorme to a one-year contract Tuesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Per Alvarez-Montes, Guillorme is already with his new team at loanDepot Park in Miami, so it appears he will be active for Tuesday's game versus the Marlins. The Diamondbacks will need to make roster moves in order to add him to their 26-man and 40-man rosters. Guillorme, who was released by the Angels over the weekend, has a paltry .218/.285/.290 slash line in 138 plate appearances between Atlanta and Los Angeles. However, he offers a steady glove and gives Arizona an option at second base while Ketel Marte (ankle) is out.

Angels' Luis Guillorme: Exits 40-man roster
Rotowire
The Angels designated Guillorme for assignment Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Guillorme slashed .231/.302/.298 with just three RBI in 50 games for the Angels. The veteran utility player will likely clear waivers given his $1.1 million salary, but he should be able to eventually latch on with another club looking for a versatile infielder.

Angels' Luis Guillorme: Scratched with sore back
Rotowire
Guillorme was scratched from the Angels lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners due to back tightness, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Guillorme had been in line to make just his third start in the last seven games, but the back injury thwarted those plans. With Guillorme hitting the bench due to the back issue, Brandon Drury will shift over from the keystone to man third base in Guillorme's stead, while Keston Hiura enters the starting nine at second base.
