  • 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 off waivers

    Vasquez was claimed off waivers by the Phillies on Wednesday.

    Vasquez made a career-high 10 appearances in the majors between the Blue Jays and Giants last year and posted a 6.23 ERA and 1.15 WHIP in 8.2 innings. He'll likely compete for a big-league roster spot during spring training in 2023.

  • Giants' Andrew Vasquez: Contract selected Monday

    Vasquez's contract was selected from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

    Vasquez lost his spot on the Giants' 40-man roster in late August but went unclaimed on waivers and remained in the organization. He should serve as a low-leverage reliever during the Giants' final series of the regular season after Thomas Szapucki (hip) was placed on the 15-day IL.

  • Giants' Andrew Vasquez: Passes through waivers

    The Giants outrighted Vasquez to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.

    He'll remain in the organization after going unclaimed off waivers when the Giants designated him for assignment earlier this week. Vazquez has also spent time with the Blue Jays and Phillies organizations in 2022, but his only big-league action came in Toronto, with whom he made nine relief appearances.

  • Giants' Andrew Vasquez: Dropped from 40-man roster

    Vasquez was designated for assignment by the Giants on Wednesday, Amy Gutierrez of the Giants' official site reports.

    Vasquez was claimed off waivers by the Giants on Aug. 17 after being DFA'd by the Phillies, but he will once again be placed on waivers. The left-hander appeared in four games with Triple-A Sacramento, tossing 3.1 scoreless innings while striking out six batters. The transaction freed a spot for Andrew Knapp on the Giants' 40-man roster and his contract was selected Wednesday.

  • Giants' Andrew Vasquez: Claimed by San Francisco

    Vasquez was claimed off waivers by the Giants on Wednesday.

    Vasquez was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Monday but will land a spot on the Giants' 40-man roster. He'll report to Triple-A Sacramento to begin his time with his new organization. The 28-year-old has made 14 relief appearances at the Triple-A level this year and has posted a 2.40 ERA and 0.60 WHIP in 15 innings.

  • Phillies' Andrew Vasquez: Scrubbed from 40-man roster

    Vasquez was designated for assignment by the Phillies on Monday.

    Vasquez was claimed off waivers by the Phillies on Aug. 2 after he was DFA'd by the Blue Jays, but he will now either remain with Lehigh Valley, get claimed by another team or get released outright. Although he's struggled in limited major-league action this year, the left-hander has produced a 2.40 ERA over 15 innings in 14 appearances at Triple-A this season.

  • 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 (ankle) made his second rehab appearance Wednesday, striking out one over a scoreless inning for Triple-A Buffalo.

    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.

  • Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Lands on injured list

    Vasquez (ankle) was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday.

    Vasquez sprained his right ankle while attempting to cover first base Wednesday against the Royals. He'll now miss at least the next two weeks and potentially more time beyond that. Jeremy Beasley was recalled to take his place in the bullpen.

  • Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Nursing ankle sprain

    Vasquez was diagnosed with a sprained right ankle after exiting Wednesday's loss to the Royals, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Vasquez suffered the injury while attempting to cover first base, as he rolled his ankle when contacting the bag. It wouldn't be surprising if the left-hander requires a trip to the injured list, but for now he should be considered day-to-day.

  • Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Exits with apparent injury

    Vasquez exited Wednesday's game against the Royals in the bottom of the eighth inning with an apparent ankle injury, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

    Velasquez rolled his ankle on first base with two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning and had to be helped off the field. Prior to the southpaw's departure, he threw five pitches (four strikes) in two-thirds of a perfect inning. It's not yet clear whether his injury will require a trip to the IL.

  • Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Summoned from Triple-A

    The Blue Jays recalled Vasquez from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

    The addition of Vasquez gives the Blue Jays another healthy left-handed option out of the bullpen after southpaw Tim Mayza (forearm) was moved to the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Vasquez previously made three relief appearances for Toronto earlier this season, covering 2.1 innings in total and giving up four earned runs on four hits and two waks.

  • Blue Jays' Andrew Vasquez: Sent back to Buffalo

    The Blue Jays optioned Vasquez to Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday.

    After tossing 22 pitches in his one-inning relief appearance in Tuesday's 9-1 loss to the Yankees, Vasquez might not have been available out of the bullpen for Wednesday's series finale. As a result, the Blue Jays opted to move Vasquez off the active roster and replace him with Casey Lawrence, whose contract was selected from Buffalo.
