Nationals' Patrick Weigel: Minors pact with Washington
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.

Reds' Patrick Weigel: Gets MiLB deal from Cincinnati
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.

Mariners' Patrick Weigel: Dispatched to MiLB camp
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.

Mariners' Patrick Weigel: Inks MiLB deal
Weigel signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Monday, Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.
Weigler appeared in three games out of the bullpen for Milwaukee in 2021, surrendering two runs on four hits and four walks while fanning nine over four frames. He didn't fare much better while at Triple-A Nashville, accruing a 7.27 ERA and 1.97 WHIP with a 48:38 K:BB over 43.1 innings. Weigel will likely need to show vast improvement in his command to make it back to the big leagues in the future.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Stays in organization
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.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Designated for assignment
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.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Sent back to minors
Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.
Weigel's third stint of the year in the big-league bullpen lasted just four days. He did not make an appearance. Hunter Strickland, acquired in a trade with the Angels on Saturday, was added to the active roster in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Recalled by Brewers
Weigel was recalled by the Brewers on Thursday.
Weigel has already spent two separate stints on the Brewers' active roster, appearing a total of three times. He's allowed two earned runs in four innings of work, striking out nine while walking four. Travis Shaw (shoulder) landed on the injured list in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Sent to Triple-A
Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Weigel had been with the team since the start of May for his second stint on the big-league roster. In three total relief appearances, he's allowed two runs on four hits in four innings of work, striking out nine but also walking four. He's likely to continue bouncing between the majors and Triple-A depending on the team's needs but is unlikely to find his way into a high-leverage role. Josh Lindblom (knee) returned from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Rejoins big-league club
Weigel was recalled from the alternate training site Saturday.
The 26-year-old was sent to the alternate site after delivering two scoreless innings during his season debut Wednesday, but he'll quickly rejoin the club with Eric Yardley (shoulder) landing on the injured list. Weigel should fill a low-leverage role out of the bullpen for Milwaukee.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Back to alternate site
Weigel was optioned to the alternate site Thursday.
Weigel was recalled for Wednesday's game, in which he threw two scoreless innings. With the Brewers' pitching depth having been tested of late, the team needed fresh arms in the bullpen. Jordan Zimmermann had his contract selected in a corresponding move.

Brewers' Patrick Weigel: Sent packing to Milwaukee
The Brewers acquired Weigel and pitcher Chad Sobotka from Atlanta on Tuesday in exchange for infielder Orlando Arcia.
A five-year starter at shortstop for Milwaukee, Arcia had moved into a utility role for Milwaukee in 2021 and was seen as expendable, so the Brewers opted to cash him out for a pair of right-handed relievers. Weigel had been a top starting pitching prospect in Atlanta's organization before missing most of the 2018 season following Tommy John surgery. He's since converted to relief duty and could emerge as an option out of the big-league bullpen later in 2021. Expect him to begin the season at Triple-A Nashville.

Braves' Patrick Weigel: Sent back to alternate camp
Weigel was returned to the Braves' alternate training site following Friday's doubleheader against the Nationals.
Weigel wasn't very effective out of the bullpen during Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader as he allowed two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out zero over two-thirds of an inning. He'll now head back to alternate camp, and it's unclear whether he'll return to the major-league bullpen this year.

Braves' Patrick Weigel: Serving as extra player
Weigel was recalled from the alternate training site to serve as the 29th man for Friday's doubleheader against the Nationals.
The 26-year-old will join the major-league roster for the first time in 2020 after working out at the alternate training site. Weigel had a couple brief stints in the majors last season, though he has yet to see game action. He had a 2.98 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 55:32 K:BB over 63.1 innings at Triple-A in 2019.

Braves' Patrick Weigel: Officially sent to minors
Weigel was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
The 25-year-old right-hander had a good showing in camp before MLB suspended the Grapefruit League schedule, but Atlanta has apparently decided Weigel would be better off in the rotation at Gwinnett than in the big-league bullpen to begin the regular season.

Braves' Patrick Weigel: Competing for bullpen spot
Weigel has rung up a 0.00 ERA, 0.47 WHIP and 6:1 K:BB through 6.1 innings this spring.
The 25-year-old right-hander has yet to make his big-league debut and missed nearly the entire 2018 campaign following Tommy John surgery, but Weigel appears ready to make the leap to the majors based on his performance in camp so far. Whether Atlanta has room for him in the Opening Day bullpen is another question, but even if Weigel doesn't make the cut right away, he'll be on the short list of potential reinforcements during the regular season.
