  • Oliver Perez: Cut by Diamondbacks
    By RotoWire

    Perez was released by the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Perez went unclaimed on waivers after being designated for assignment by Arizona on Monday, and he'll now become a free agent. The 40-year-old made seven appearances for the Diamondbacks this year and allowed seven runs in four innings.

  • Perez was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Monday. Perez made Arizona's Opening Day roster after signing as a non-roster invitee in March, but the club has seen enough after he surrendered seven earned runs over four innings to begin the year. The 40-year-old lefty could head to Triple-A Reno if he passes through waivers unclaimed or could opt for free agency.

  • The Diamondbacks selected Perez's contract from Double-A Amarillo on Wednesday. Perez will begin preparing for his 20th season in the majors after earning a spot in Arizona's bullpen during spring training. The Diamondbacks opened up room for him on the 40-man roster and 28-man active roster by designating Caleb Baragar for assignment Tuesday. Perez is expected to serve primarily as a lefty specialist, a role that's unlikely to present him with many save chances.

  • Perez signed with the Diamondbacks as a non-roster invitee Monday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports. The 40-year-old lefty is looking to spend his 20th career season in the majors. He threw just 3.2 scoreless innings for Cleveland last season before heading to Mexico to pitch for Toros de Tijuanam where he posted a 38.0 percent strikeout rate and a 2.63 ERA in 24 innings of work. He should have a shot to carve out a role in the Arizona bullpen, though it's unlikely to be a high-leverage one.

  • Oliver Perez: Plans to retire
    By RotoWire

    Perez will retire from baseball after finishing out the 2022 season with Toros de Tijuana of the Mexican League. Perez spent the last four seasons of his MLB career with Cleveland, making only five appearances in 2021 and giving up no earned runs before being released in May. The 40-year-old will walk away from the game with a career 4.34 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP across 1,461.2 frames in the majors.
