The Blue Jays outrighted Feierabend to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 33-year-old knuckleballer will stick in the organization after going unclaimed off waivers when the Blue Jays designated him for assignment earlier in the weekend. Feierabend was lit up for seven runs in 5.2 innings across two appearances with Toronto in what was his first MLB action since 2014.

Feierabend was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Feierabend struggled in both outings with Toronto as he allowed seven runs on 11 hits over 5.2 innings after having his contract purchased from Triple-A Buffalo last week. The 33-year-old may rejoin Buffalo if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

The Blue Jays may not have Feierabend start the next time his turn comes up Thursday against the Red Sox with Clayton Richard (knee) trending toward a return from the 10-day injured list this week, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

When the Blue Jays required a new rotation member over the weekend against the White Sox, the journeyman knuckleballer was a surprise choice to make a spot start. As one might expect from a pitcher who hadn't appeared in the big leagues since 2014, Feierabend labored through his four innings, giving up four runs on seven hits and a walk in a losing effort. It's apparent that Feierabend is merely keeping a seat warm for Richard, who tossed 48 pitches in his first rehab start Saturday for Triple-A Buffalo. Though Richard won't be ready to assume a normal starter's workload if deemed available Thursday, the Blue Jays may be comfortable with deploying him as a primary pitcher out of the bullpen. Feierabend would represent the most logical candidate to lose his roster spot whenever Toronto decides to activate Richard.

Feierabend (0-1) took the loss Saturday, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out two over four innings against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Feierabend permitted a run in the first inning on a Leury Garcia homer, two tallies in the second on three hits, and a final run on three hits in the third. This was the 33-year-old's first start since 2008, and the performance left Feierabend with a 9.00 ERA and a 2.00 WHIP this year. The left-hander is lined up for a tough matchup in his next start Thursday at home against the Red Sox.

Feierabend's contract was purchased from Triple-A Buffalo prior to his start Saturday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

A 33-year-old journeyman, Feierabend's last major-league appearance was in 2014 with the Rangers. He had a 2.70 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 13:6 K:BB in 16.2 innings with Buffalo, but his 5.54 FIP paints a less promising picture.

Feierabend accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Rangers recalled LHP Ryan Feierabend from Triple-A Round Rock. He's a candidate to start for the Rangers on Sunday in their first half finale against the Angels. It will mark the first time that he's been back in the major leagues since he was a member of the Mariners during the 2008 season.

Rangers re-signed LHP Ryan Feierabend to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Feierabend posted a 3.70 over 148 1/3 innings between Double- and Triple-A for the Rangers last season. He hasn't appeared in the majors since 2008 and is merely organizational depth.

Rangers signed LHP Ryan Feierabend to a minor league contract. Feierabend hasn't appeared in the majors since 2008 and put up an ugly 6.75 ERA over seven starts for the Reds' Triple-A affiliate in 2012. He's merely organizational depth.

Phillies re-signed LHP Ryan Feierabend to a minor league contract. Feierabend hasn't appeared in the majors since 2008 and posted ERAs of 5.14 and 5.39 over the last two seasons at Triple-A. He'll occupy a spot in Triple-A Lehigh Valley's rotation.
