Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Back with Tigers as NRI
Vasquez signed a minor-league contract with the Tigers on Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Evan Petzold of Detroit Free Press reports.
Vasquez finished the 2023 season with the Tigers and posted a 3.35 ERA and 43:23 K:BB over 48.1 frames across 42 appearances overall between Philadelphia and Detroit. The Tigers already have two projected lefties for their bullpen in Andrew Chafin and Tyler Holton, and Vasquez will do his best to convince them to carry a third.

Andrew Vasquez: Elects to hit free agency
Vasquez elected to become a free agent Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Vasquez was outrighted off the Tigers' 40-man roster Monday and will now head to the open market. The 30-year-old southpaw should draw a good amount of offers after posting a 3.35 ERA over 48.1 innings of relief this past season between Philadelphia and Detroit.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Pushed off 40-man roster
The Tigers outrighted Vasquez to Triple-A Toledo on Monday.
Vasquez made 42 appearances in the majors between the Phillies and Tigers in 2023, logging a 3.35 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 43:23 K:BB in 48.1 innings. Though the 30-year-old southpaw will stick in the Detroit organization for now after clearing waivers, it wouldn't be surprising if he elected free agency at a later date.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Activated from 15-day IL
Vasquez (calf) was activated from the 15-day injured list Friday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Vasquez returns to the Tigers' bullpen for the final weekend of the 2023 campaign after missing about four weeks due to a calf injury. The 30-year-old southpaw has posted a 3.55 ERA and 40:22 K:BB in 45.2 innings of relief this season between Philadelphia and Detroit.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Kicking off rehab assignment
Vasquez (calf) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Thursday.
Vasquez has been sidelined by calf tightness since Aug. 29. He shouldn't need much time to ramp up given he rarely works more than an inning, so it's realistic that he could return to the Detroit bullpen by mid-September.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Out with calf tightness
Vasquez was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with left calf tightness, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
The 29-year-old has surrendered eight earned runs over six innings since being claimed off waivers by Detroit in early August, and he'll now be unavailable for at least the next couple weeks. With just over a month left in the campaign, Vasquez could have difficulty returning this season if he requires a shutdown period beyond a few days.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Continuing to pitch well
Vasquez, who tossed 1.1 scoreless innings of relief in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Sox, has a 2.16 ERA this season.
Vasquez was claimed off waivers from the Phillies on Aug. 4, and the lefty has logged three scoreless outings since then. The back end of Detroit's bullpen is somewhat in flux due to control issues from regular closer Alex Lange, so Vasquez could earn higher-leverage work if he continues to pitch well.

Tigers' Andrew Vasquez: Claimed by Detroit
Detroit claimed Vasquez off waivers from the Phillies on Friday.
Vasquez was designated for assignment Wednesday as the Phillies did some 40-man roster shuffling in the aftermath of Tuesday's trade deadline. The 29-year-old left-hander had posted an impressive 2.27 ERA with 34 strikeouts through 39.2 major-league innings this season for Philadelphia and could wind up being a nice waiver-wire grab for the Tigers.

Phillies' Andrew Vasquez: Cast off 40-man roster
The Phillies designated Vasquez for assignment Wednesday.
He'll lose his spot on the 40-man roster with the Phillies needing to clear room for two of their trade-deadline pickups in right-hander Michael Lorenzen and infielder Rodolfo Castro. Vasquez has largely operated in a middle-relief role for Philadelphia this season, accruing no saves or holds while turning in a 2.27 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 34:14 K:BB in 39.2 innings. His solid ratios could prompt another team in need of a lefty reliever to scoop him up off waivers.

Phillies' Andrew Vasquez: Records second win
Vasquez (2-0) earned the win Saturday against the Athletics, striking out two while allowing one hit, one walk and one unearned run over two innings.
Vasquez entered the game with the score tied in the bottom of the 10th and intentionally walked Esteury Ruiz to lead things off before needing just seven pitches to retire the next three batters. The lefty reliever returned in the 11th, this time with a one-run lead and proceeded to cough up the game-tying run on an RBI double from Carlos Perez. However, Kyle Schwarber came right back for Philadelphia in the bottom of the inning with an RBI single, giving the 29-year-old his second win of the season. Vasquez has struck out two in each of his last two appearances and lowered his ERA to 1.62 on the season with Saturday's effort.

Phillies' Andrew Vasquez: Claimed by Phillies
The Phillies claimed Vasquez (ankle) off waivers from Toronto on Tuesday and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.
Before landing on the Blue Jays' 15-day injured list in early June due to a right ankle sprain, Vasquez posted an 8.10 ERA in 6.2 innings of relief for the Blue Jays. He's now healthy again after making three appearances during a minor-league rehab assignment, but the Blue Jays didn't have a spot for him on the 40-man roster. The 28-year-old will find a new home in Philadelphia, but he'll first have to prove himself at Triple-A before getting a call back to the majors.

Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Starts up rehab assignment

Vasquez started up his rehab assignment last weekend in the rookie-level Florida Complex League before moving up to the Blue Jays' top affiliate. The 28-year-old southpaw will likely stick with Buffalo through the weekend before the team decides whether to activate him from the 15-day injured list or extend his minor-league assignment.
