  • Angels' D.J. Snelten: Reaches deal with Angels

    Snelton signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Tuesday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    Snelton has the unenviable distinction of being the Angels' first signing in the post-Shohei Ohtani era. The 31-year-old spent all of the 2023 season at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the Yankees organization, posting a 7.50 ERA and 48:42 K:BB over 36 innings. He last appeared in the majors in 2018.

  • Cubs' D.J. Snelten: Dealing with elbow injury

    Snelten arrived at spring training with an elbow injury and has been sent home by the Cubs, Maddie Lee of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

    Snelten signed with the Cubs as a non-roster invitee earlier in the month, but he'll be shut down for spring training due to his elbow issue. He's scheduled to begin a strengthening program in six weeks but doesn't yet have a timetable to return to baseball activities. The southpaw could compete for a major-league roster spot at some point in 2021 once he returns to full health.

  • Cubs' D.J. Snelten: Latches on with Cubs

    Snelten signed a minor-league deal with the Cubs on Friday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

    The 28-year-old spent spring training with the Rays last year and ended up at the alternate training site all season. Snelten hasn't seen game action since 2018 when he made his big-league debut with the Giants and surrendered five earned runs over 4.1 frames in four appearances.

  • Rays' D.J. Snelten: Present in 60-man pool

    Snelton was named to the Rays' 60-man roster pool Sunday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Snelton was in camp as a non-roster invitee in the spring, but he was reassigned to minor-league camp before things were shut down. The 28-year-old will get the chance to showcase himself for the shortened 60-game season.

  • Rays' D.J. Snelten: Bound for minors camp

    The Rays reassigned Snelten to their minor-league camp Thursday, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

    Snelten joined the Rays as a non-roster invitee at spring training after spending the previous season in the independent ranks. Though he did make four appearances at the big-league level with the Giants in 2018, Snelten's prior experience won't be enough for him to break camp with the big club. He'll likely need to prove his worth at Triple-A Durham before the Rays weigh whether to add him to the 40-man roster and call him up to the majors at some point down the road.

  • Rays' D.J. Snelten: Invited to Rays' camp

    Snelten signed a minor-league contract with the Rays on Monday as a non-roster invitee, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

    Snelten was let go by the Orioles in March and was unable to find a home during the 2019 season, but he'll get the chance to work with the Rays' major-league coaches during spring training. Snelten carries a 3.64 ERA with a 1.37 WHIP at the Triple-A level over his past three seasons, but he'll need to prove himself again in order to return to the majors after he had a disappointing big-league debut with the Giants in 2018.

  • D.J. Snelten: Cut loose by Baltimore

    The Orioles released Snelten on Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

    Snelten was a member of the Orioles' 40-man roster for a two-week stretch last season but never made any appearances for the big-league club before being outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk. The lefty didn't impress during his time in the International League with a 5.52 ERA and 1.96 WHIP in 29.1 innings, which likely influenced the team's decision to cut ties.

  • Orioles' D.J. Snelten: Clears waivers and heads to minors

    Snelten cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

    Snelten will be one step further from the big leagues as he's been removed from the Orioles' 40-man roster. He tossed 4.1 innings for the Giants earlier this year, posting a 10.38 ERA.

  • Orioles' D.J. Snelten: Designated for assignment

    Snelten was designated for assignment by Baltimore on Friday.

    Snelten was recently claimed off waivers by the Orioles but didn't do much to impress at the Triple-A level, allowing five earned runs off nine hits in just three innings of relief with Norfolk. He will be exposed to waivers for the second time this season, though it's unlikely that he will make an impact in the majors with another organization any time soon.

  • Orioles' D.J. Snelten: Claimed by Orioles

    Snelten was claimed off waivers by the Orioles on Monday.

    Snelten was subsequently optioned to Triple-A Norfolk, where he'll serve as organizational bullpen depth. The 26-year-old struggled to a 10.38 ERA and 2.77 WHIP across 4.1 innings with the Giants prior to being designated for assignment. He posted a more respectable 4.08 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 15:9 K:BB across 17.2 innings with Triple-A Sacramento.

  • Giants' D.J. Snelten: Removed from 40-man roster

    Snelten was designated for assignment on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    The Giants needed to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Dereck Rodriguez, whose contract was purchased from Triple-A earlier in the day. Snelten has a 4.08 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 15 strikeouts in 17.2 innings at Triple-A this season.

  • Giants' D.J. Snelten: Sent back to minors

    Snelten was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Snelten will head back to Sacramento after struggling across four appearances with the Giants, allowing six runs (five earned) on nine hits and three walks across 4.1 innings. He'll continue to serve as organizational bullpen depth in the minors. A corresponding roster move has yet to be announced.

  • Giants' D.J. Snelten: Recalled from minors

    Snelten was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    The Giants needed a fresh bullpen arm for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Dodgers after Game 1 starter Chris Stratton lasted just 1.1 innings, so Snelten will join the big club for the first time in his career. The 25-year-old owns a 4.00 ERA and 1.22 WHIP across nine innings with the River Cats this season. He likely won't stick with the Giants for long.

  • Giants' D.J. Snelten: Returning to Triple-A Sacramento

    Snelten was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Snelten was efficient during his brief usage this spring. He pitched 5.1 innings over six games and allowed only one run on six hits and a walk. Snelten made his way up to Sacramento last season and threw to the tune of a 2.42 ERA and 1.08 WHIP over 36 games (52 innings). If need be, the 25-year-old could be an option for the big club's bullpen if he puts together a similar performance at the Triple-A level this season.
