Mariners' Asher Wojciechowski: Back with Seattle for '22
Asher Wojciechowski re-signed Feb. 8 with the Seattle Mariners on a minor-league contract.After finishing the 2021 season at Triple-A Tacoma within the Mariners organization, Wojciechowski elected free agency in November. He ultimately decided a return to Seattle was his best option, and while his new deal likely includes an invitation to big-league camp, he's probably not a serious threat for the Mariners' Opening Day rotation. The 33-year-old right-hander has spent parts of five seasons in the majors from 2015 through 2021, logging a lifetime 5.93 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 21.5 percent strikeout rate across 202 innings over stops with the Astros, Reds, Orioles and Yankees.

Yankees' Asher Wojciechowski: Works four innings
Asher Wojciechowski allowed two earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out four across four innings Wednesday against the Phillies. He did not factor into the decision.Wojciechowski had his contract selected before the start and made his season debut for the New York Yankees. He allowed a leadoff home run to Jean Segura but largely managed to work around trouble to keep the Yankees in the game. It remains unclear if he'll get another turn through the rotation, though the team has very few options at starting pitcher with Nestor Cortes (COVID-19) and several others currently sidelined. Prior to this outing, Wojciechowski had managed a 5.68 ERA and 1.60 WHP across 12.2 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
