Weigel was optioned to the alternate site Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Weigel was recalled for Wednesday's game, and he threw two scoreless innings in the outing. With the Brewers' pitching depth being tested of late, the team needed fresh arms in its bullpen. Jordan Zimmermann had his contract selected in a corresponding move.

Weigel was recalled by the Brewers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Weigel is set to make his Milwaukee debut after coming over in a trade from Atlanta in early April. Phil Bickford was optioned in a corresponding move.

The Brewers acquired Weigel and pitched Chad Sobotka from Atlanta on Tuesday in exchange for infielder Orlando Arcia.

EDGE Analysis

A five-year starter at shortstop for Milwaukee, Arcia had moved into a utility role for Milwaukee in 2021 and was seen as expendable, so the Brewers opted to cash him out for a pair of right-handed relievers. Weigel had been a top starting pitching prospect in Atlanta's organization before missing most of the 2018 season following Tommy John surgery. He's since converted to relief duty and could emerge as an option out of the big-league bullpen later in 2021. Expect him to begin the season at Triple-A Nashville.

Weigel was returned to the Braves' alternate training site following Friday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Weigel wasn't very effective out of the bullpen during Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader as he allowed two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out zero over two-thirds of an inning. He'll now head back to alternate camp, and it's unclear whether he'll return to the major-league bullpen this year.

Weigel was recalled from the alternate training site to serve as the 29th man for Friday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old will join the major-league roster for the first time in 2020 after working out at the alternate training site. Weigel had a couple brief stints in the majors last season, though he has yet to see game action. He had a 2.98 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 55:32 K:BB over 63.1 innings at Triple-A in 2019.

Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old right-hander had a good showing in camp before MLB suspended the Grapefruit League schedule, but Atlanta has apparently decided Weigel would be better off in the rotation at Gwinnett than in the big-league bullpen to begin the regular season.

Weigel has rung up a 0.00 ERA, 0.47 WHIP and 6:1 K:BB through 6.1 innings this spring.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old right-hander has yet to make his big-league debut and missed nearly the entire 2018 campaign following Tommy John surgery, but Weigel appears ready to make the leap to the majors based on his performance in camp so far. Whether Atlanta has room for him in the Opening Day bullpen is another question, but even if Weigel doesn't make the cut right away, he'll be on the short list of potential reinforcements during the regular season.

Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Weigel is still yet to make his major-league debut (he did not make an appearance after being recalled Aug. 9). The right-hander carries an ERA of 2.96 with 42 strikeouts in 51.2 innings pitched at the Triple-A level this season. Outfielder Rafael Ortega was promoted to the majors in a corresponding move.

Weigel was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett prior to Friday's game in Miami.

EDGE Analysis

He hasn't pitched in three days, so Weigel will give the Braves a fresh bullpen arm in the short term. While he has been developed as a starter for most of this season (his first full year back from Tommy John surgery), he has been deployed as a reliever lately at Triple-A. Weigel has not allowed a run while striking out six and allowing two hits and two walks over his last seven innings. Despite a brief stint on the 25-man roster in July, the 25-year-old right-hander has yet to make his big-league debut.

Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Weigel was recalled Friday but did not make an appearance with the big-league club. His demotion was the corresponding move to activate Kevin Gausman (foot) -- Sunday's starter -- off the injured list.
