  03/29/2022 • By RotoWire

  The Mariners reassigned Buchter to minor-league camp Tuesday. The demotion of outfielder Taylor Trammell to Triple-A Tacoma and reassignments of Buchter and right-hander Matt Festa leave the Mariners with 42 players left at big-league camp as Opening Day approaches. Buchter spent the 2021 campaign in the Diamondbacks organization, appearing in 18 games for the big club and logging a 6.61 ERA over 16.1 innings.

  Buchter signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Sunday that includes an invite to big-league camp. Buchter was released by Arizona in August after posting a 6.61 ERA, 1.78 WHIP and 16:13 K:BB across 16.1 innings. The veteran left-hander has a career 3.16 ERA but has struggled over the past two years, as the implementation of the three-batter minimum limits his effectiveness.

  Buchter was released by the Diamondbacks on Friday. Buchter produced an ERA below 3.00 for four straight seasons from 2016 through 2019, but he's struggled to a 6.04 ERA and a 17.8 percent walk rate in a small sample of 22.1 innings at the highest level over the last two years. The 34-year-old owns a 3.38 ERA in 16 innings for Triple-A Reno this season, but his lack of recent major-league success may make it tough for him to find a new deal.
