The Nationals signed Weigel to a minor-league contract Dec. 6. 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. 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. 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.

The Brewers outrighted Weigel to Triple-A Nashville on Monday. 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. Weigel has 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.
