Uceta was claimed off waivers by the Pirates and was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Thursday and will now join a new organization. Uceta appeared in 10 games for Arizona last season and had a 5.82 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 13:7 K:BB across 17 innings.

Uceta was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta missed the cut for Detroit's Opening Day roster and has now lost his spot on the 40-man roster. The 25-year-old made 10 appearances for the Diamondbacks last year and had a 5.82 ERA over 17 innings.

The Tigers optioned Uceta to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

A waiver pickup from the Diamondbacks in January, Uceta was sent out to the minors after allowing five runs (four earned) on eight hits and four walks over seven innings in Grapefruit League play during his first camp with the Tigers. The 25-year-old right-hander will probably need to show sharpened command and control at Triple-A for at least his first few appearances of the season before the Tigers entertain the idea of calling him up.

The Tigers claimed Uceta off waivers from the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Detroit will likely give Uceta the chance to compete for a spot in its Opening Day bullpen during spring training, provided he's not moved off the 40-man roster before then and scooped up by another organization. Between stops with the Dodgers and Diamondbacks, the 25-year-old right-hander has submitted a 6.27 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 11.5 K-BB% across 37.1 career innings in the majors.

Uceta was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Thursday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta split time between the Triple-A and major-league clubs last year and posted a 5.82 ERA and 1.24 WHIP in 17 innings over 10 relief appearances with the Diamondbacks. However, he'll lose his spot on the team's 40-man roster after Arizona signed Evan Longoria to a one-year contract.

Uceta struck out seven and allowed two earned runs on two hits and three walks over 3.1 innings in his relief appearance Friday for Triple-A Reno.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta was returned to the Triple-A club after a one-day stint in Arizona, as he was designated as the Diamondbacks' 29th man for its Sept. 20 doubleheader with the Dodgers. Unless Arizona has a need for an extra relief arm over the final week and a half with the season, Uceta may not pitch for the Diamondbacks again in 2022. He's logged a 5.82 ERA and 1.24 WHIP across 17 innings out of the Arizona bullpen so far this season.

Uceta was recalled from Triple-A Reno to serve as the 29th man in Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, Sarah Wexler of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He last threw three innings Saturday at Triple-A, so he could be available to log a few innings in relief if either Zach Davies or Drey Jameson get chased in their starts. Uceta, 24, has a 5.04 ERA at Triple-A and a 5.82 ERA in the majors this season.

The Diamondbacks optioned Uceta to Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta was sent out to Triple-A in order for the Diamondbacks to add a fresh arm -- Luis Frias, who was recalled from Reno -- to the bullpen ahead of Sunday's series finale with the Cardinals after five relievers were needed to record the final 11 outs of Saturday's 16-7 loss. One of those relievers was Uceta, who was lit up for four earned runs on three hits and one walk during his one inning out of the bullpen.

Uceta was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta has moved up and down several times this season, and he will rejoin the big club with fellow reliever Kyle Nelson (back) landing on the injured list. He figures to hold down a spot near the back of the bullpen last time he was with the Diamondbacks.

Uceta was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Uceta has been up in the majors the past couple weeks and made two appearances for Arizona during that stretch, and he allowed one earned run across 3.2 innings. The right-hander has covered 30.1 frames for Reno this year with a 4.15 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 40:16 K:BB.
