Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Sent outright to Iowa
Mazzoni was outrighted to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Mazzoni will report back to the Iowa Cubs after passing through waivers untouched over the weekend. The 28-year-old owns a shiny 1.04 ERA across 8.2 innings with the Cubs this year, though his 4.46 ERA across 38.1 innings with Triple-A Iowa is more likely a true indicator of his skill level.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Designated for assignment
Mazzoni was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Thursday.
Mazzoni was cast off the 40-man roster in order to make room for the recently-acquired Bobby Wilson, who was traded to the club from Minnesota for Chris Gimenez on Thursday. In eight appearances with the big-league team this year, Mazzoni has logged a 1.04 ERA but failed to display any signs of effectiveness during brief stints with the Padres the past few seasons.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Shuttled back to minors
Mazzoni was optioned to Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Mazzoni tossed two innings during Sunday's loss to the Pirates -- allowing one run on two hits and two walks while striking out one -- so the Cubs will shuttle him back to the minors in exchange for a fresh bullpen arm (Anthony Bass). The 28-year-old, who hadn't allowed a run prior to Sunday's outing, now owns a solid 1.17 ERA across 7.2 big-league frames. He should continue to jump between Iowa and the majors as bullpen help is needed.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Joins big club Monday
Mazzoni was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Mazzoni will join the Cubs for the first time all season in order to provide a fresh bullpen arm after manager Joe Maddon burned through seven relievers during Sunday's extra-innings loss to the Cardinals. The 28-year-old owns a solid 2.31 ERA and 12:1 K:BB through 11.2 innings with Triple-A Iowa this season, but his ugly numbers at the major-league level (32 earned runs across 16.2 innings) will likely limit him to low-leverage work during his time with Chicago. Luke Farrell was optioned to Iowa in a corresponding move.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Claimed by Dodgers
Mazzoni was claimed by the Dodgers on Tuesday.
Mazzoni will open the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 28-year-old has pitched 16.2 major-league innings in his career, all with the Padres, recording an ugly 17.28 ERA. He impressed in 20.1 innings for Triple-A El Paso last season, though, striking out 37.8 percent of batters and walking 3.7 percent en route to a 0.89 ERA. He'll serve as organizational depth for the Dodgers this season. In a corresponding move, outfielder Trayce Thompson has been designated for assignment.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Optioned to Triple-A
Mazzoni was optioned to Triple-A Iowa by the Cubs on Tuesday, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.

The 28-year-old had a stellar 0.89 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 31 strikeouts at Triple-A El Paso last season, numbers that if repeated could earn him another big-league opportunity in 2018.

Cubs' Cory Mazzoni: Claimed by Cubs
Mazzoni was claimed off waivers by the Cubs on Monday.
Mazzoni was stellar for Triple-A El Paso last season -- compiling a 0.89 ERA and 31:3 K:BB across 20.1 innings -- but his success failed to carry over to the majors. The 28-year-old posted a 13.50 ERA, 2.63 WHIP and 4:4 K:BB across eight major-league innings. He'll likely serve as organizational pitching depth in 2018.

Padres' Cory Mazzoni: Designated for assignment
Mazzoni was designated for assignment by the Padres on Tuesday.
The right-hander failed to make the roster out of camp after battling a shoulder injury late last season. He made two appearances with Triple-A El Paso to begin the year, but has not pitched in a game since April 13. It's uncertain if there's something wrong with Mazzoni, physically, but he figures to pass through waivers unclaimed regardless.

Padres' Cory Mazzoni: Optioned to Triple-A on Monday
Mazzoni was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Monday, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Mazzoni was competing for a bullpen spot with the Padres, but after allowing a .357 BAA and giving up four runs (three earned) in 4.1 innings pitched, he'll head back to Triple-A to develop a bit more. There is a good chance that he could reappear with the Padres at some point this season if he can improve against upper-level hitters, though, as he did reach the majors for a brief time last season.
