Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Sent to Triple-A
Rotowire
De Geus was outrighted to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.
De Geus was designated for assignment by Arizona last week, but he'll remain in the organization for now. The 24-year-old struggled in 2021 with a 7.56 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 41:25 K:BB across 50 innings between the Rangers and Diamondbacks.

Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
De Geus was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Friday.
De Geus struggled to a 7.56 ERA in 50 innings of relief in his big-league debut last season, striking out just 17.2 percent of opposing batters while walking 10.5 percent. He's just 24 years old and had strong numbers in the minors in 2019, which could incentivize a team to take a chance on him, but he'll make way for new acquisition Jordan Luplow (ankle) on Arizona's 40-man roster after the veteran outfielder came over in a trade with the Rays.

Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Snares win Wednesday
Rotowire
De Geus (3-2) allowed a run and struck out one over a scoreless sixth inning to pick up the win over Pittsburgh on Wednesday.
De Geus came into a tied game then benefitted from Arizona's bats coming alive in the final innings. A Carson Kelly pinch-hit home run in the seventh followed by a David Peralta two-run double in the eighth secured the win for the reliever, who has a 5.51 ERA since the Diamondbacks claimed him off waivers from the Rangers in June. That represents an improvement after de Geus pitched to an 8.44 ERA while with Texas. It's unclear how the Diamondbacks view the 23-year-old, who was a Rule 5 pick during the offseason. Given that his highest minor-league level was High-A before pitching in Texas this season, the Arizona organization may want to let him finish out the season in the big leagues then develop more fully in the minors next year.

Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Falters in loss
Rotowire
De Geus (2-1) lost Saturday's 6-2 defeat at the hands of the Padres, allowing three runs on two hits and a walk without recording an out.
De Geus entered a 2-2 game in the bottom of the eighth and allowed three straight baserunners before being removed. All three Padres eventually came around to score as the righty was handed his first career loss. The three runs allowed were only one fewer than the four he'd permitted in 12.2 innings since joining Arizona in June.

Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Blows save, picks up win
Rotowire
De Geus (2-0) earned the win Wednesday versus Pittsburgh. He allowed an inherited runner to score on a walk, taking a blown save in two-thirds of an inning.
De Geus wasn't charged with the run -- that went on Joe Mantiply's line instead. It still counted as the first blown save of de Geus' career, although he was able to earn the win as Arizona's Pavin Smith and Daulton Varsho went back-to-back to regain the lead in the bottom of the seventh inning. Through 34.1 innings, the 23-year-old right-hander has a 7.08 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 30:15 K:BB between Arizona and Texas.

Diamondbacks' Brett de Geus: Recalled by Diamondbacks
Rotowire
De Geus was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.
De Geus was claimed off waivers from the Rangers on Friday, and he'll join the major-league roster just one day later.

Corbin Martin was sent down in a corresponding move.

Rangers' Brett de Geus: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
The Rangers designated de Geus for assignment Wednesday.
The righty allowed multiple runs in five of his last seven relief appearances, most recently yielding three in 1.1 innings Tuesday. The Dodgers could reclaim de Geus, who was picked by Texas in the Rule 5 draft, but his 8.44 ERA can't be too appealing to a contending club like Los Angeles.

Rangers' Brett de Geus: Stabilizes after rough debut
Rotowire
De Geus struck out one over a scoreless inning in Saturday's 7-4 loss to San Diego.
De Geus has worked three scoreless outings after getting knocked around in his MLB debut Opening Day when he ceded three runs on one hit, two walks and two hit batsmen. Since then, it's been goose eggs over 4.2 innings for the right-hander. While all of de Geus' appearances have come in the final third of games, none of them have been high leverage. That was to be expected given the 23-year-old was a Rule 5 draft pick during the offseason and is not likely to be counted on for important relief work.

Rangers' Brett de Geus: Nabbed by Rangers
Rotowire
The Rangers selected de Geus with the second pick of the Rule 5 draft.
The 6-foot-2 righty logged a 1.79 ERA with eight saves in 39 games in the Dodgers organization in 2019. He has never pitched above High-A, but as a reliever, he could theoretically hold his own out of the Rangers' bullpen in 2021. De Geus spent the 2020 season at the Dodgers' alternate site.
