The Nationals signed Weigel to a minor-league contract Dec. 6.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old righty held a 2.45 ERA and 25:12 K:BB over 22 innings between Double-A Chattanooga and Triple-A Louisville in the Reds organization in 2024. Weigel last pitched in the majors in 2021 and is likely to begin the 2025 campaign in the bullpen at Triple-A Rochester.

The Reds signed Weigel to a minor-league contract on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel, 30, was assigned to Double-A Chattanooga and tossed a scoreless inning out of the bullpen in his debut Sunday. The reliever had been pitching in the Mexican League prior to joining the Reds and hasn't seen any action at the major-league level since 2021.

The Mariners assigned Weigel to their minor-league camp Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though his resume includes four big-league relief appearances, Weigel never looked like a good bet to make the Mariners' Opening Day bullpen after signing with the team on a minor-league deal late in the offseason. His lack of a 40-man roster spot means that he'll have to impress at Triple-A Tacoma before warranting consideration for a possible promotion to the big club.

Weigel signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Monday, Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.
EDGE Analysis
Weigler appeared in three games out of the bullpen for Milwaukee in 2021, surrendering two runs on four hits and four walks while fanning nine over four frames. He didn't fare much better while at Triple-A Nashville, accruing a 7.27 ERA and 1.97 WHIP with a 48:38 K:BB over 43.1 innings. Weigel will likely need to show vast improvement in his command to make it back to the big leagues in the future.

The Brewers outrighted Weigel to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel went unclaimed off waivers when he was dropped from the Brewers' 40-man roster Friday in the wake of the trade deadline. Acquired in April in the deal that sent Orlando Arcia to Atlanta, Weigel has made three appearances out of the Milwaukee bullpen this season, giving up two earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out nine in four frames.

Weigel was designated for assignment by the Brewers on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel was thrown four major-league innings this season, allowing two runs while posting a 9:4 K:BB. With a 6.84 ERA and 1.72 WHIP in 25 innings for Triple-A Nashville, he seemingly stands a good chance of passing through waivers unclaimed.

Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel's third stint of the year in the big-league bullpen lasted just four days. He did not make an appearance. Hunter Strickland, acquired in a trade with the Angels on Saturday, was added to the active roster in a corresponding move.

Weigel was recalled by the Brewers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel has already spent two separate stints on the Brewers' active roster, appearing a total of three times. He's allowed two earned runs in four innings of work, striking out nine while walking four. Travis Shaw (shoulder) landed on the injured list in a corresponding move.

Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Weigel had been with the team since the start of May for his second stint on the big-league roster. In three total relief appearances, he's allowed two runs on four hits in four innings of work, striking out nine but also walking four. He's likely to continue bouncing between the majors and Triple-A depending on the team's needs but is unlikely to find his way into a high-leverage role. Josh Lindblom (knee) returned from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Weigel was recalled from the alternate training site Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 26-year-old was sent to the alternate site after delivering two scoreless innings during his season debut Wednesday, but he'll quickly rejoin the club with Eric Yardley (shoulder) landing on the injured list. Weigel should fill a low-leverage role out of the bullpen for Milwaukee.
