ASHER WOJCIECHOWSKI NEWS

Inks minor-league deal with Seattle Wojciechowski signed a minor-league deal with the Mariners on Wednesday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Impact Wojciechowski was designated for assignment by the Yankees earlier in the month and elected free agency after he cleared waivers. He'll report to Triple-A Tacoma initially but could contribute as either a starter or reliever in the majors prior to the conclusion of the season.

Elects free agency Wojciechowski elected free agency Saturday instead of accepting an outright assignment to the Yankees' minor-league system.

Impact Wojciechowski's contract was selected Wednesday ahead of his first start of the year. He was designated for assignment the next day after a passable performance in which he held the Phillies to two runs in four innings. He'll now be able to have his pick of future employers, though he may have a tough time finding a major-league contract considering that no team claimed him off waivers.

Outrighted to Triple-A The Yankees outrighted Wojciechowski to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

Impact The righty went unclaimed on waivers after being designated for assignment Thursday. Wojciechowski was decent Wednesday in his first big-league start of the season, lasting four innings and yielding only a pair of runs. It remains to be seen whether he'll rejoin the Yankees at some point for another spot start.

Designated for assignment Wojciechowski was designated for assignment by the Yankees on Thursday.

Impact Wojciechowski made his season debut against the Phillies on Wednesday and allowed two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out four in four innings. The right-hander will now be cast off the 40-man roster after Sal Romano's contract was selected in a corresponding move. It's not yet clear whether Wojciechowski will remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Works four innings Wojciechowski allowed two earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out four across four innings Wednesday against the Phillies. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Wojciechowski had his contract selected before the start and made his season debut for the Yankees. He allowed a leadoff home run to Jean Segura but largely managed to work around trouble to keep the Yankees in the game. It remains unclear if he'll get another turn through the rotation, though the team has very few options at starting pitcher with Nestor Cortes (COVID-19) and several others currently sidelined. Prior to this outing, Wojciechowski had managed a 5.68 ERA and 1.60 WHP across 12.2 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Called up ahead of start The Yankees selected Wojciechowski's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday against the Phillies.

Impact New York outrighted infielder Hoy Jun Park off the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster to clear room for Wojciechowski, who will be making his team debut. The journeyman right-hander will slot into the big-league rotation after posting a 5.68 ERA and 1.60 WHIP while striking out 17 over 12.2 innings at Triple-A this season.

DFA'd by Baltimore Wojciechowski was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Thursday.

Impact The 31-year-old struggled as both a starter and reliever this season with a 6.81 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 31:15 K:BB over 37 innings. Wojciechowski could remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Moves to bullpen Orioles manager Brandon Hyde announced Sept. 6 that Wojciechowski would transition into a "swing role" out of the Baltimore bullpen, Joe Trezza of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hyde isn't closing the door on Wojciechowski starting again, though that doesn't seem to be a likely outcome unless the Orioles' rotation is decimated by injuries. Through his seven starts, Wojciechowski posted a 5.17 ERA and 1.44 WHIP while giving up eight home runs over 31.1 innings. Since ceding his spot in the rotation to rookie Dean Kremer, Wojciechowski hasn't fared any better out of the bullpen. He's given up home runs in both of his relief appearances, including two three-run blasts to the Yankees' Luke Voit in his most recent outing Sept. 11.

Strikes out five Wojciechowski allowed three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out five across five innings Tuesday against the Mets. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Wojciechowski was tripped up in the second inning when he surrendered a single and double to begin the frame, ultimately resulting in two earned runs. He was otherwise solid, with the only other run he allowed coming on a solo home run. Wojciechowski has now allowed three earned runs in each of his past four starts, though he's only managed to pitch five innings in two of them. Overall, he has a 5.17 ERA with a 29:11 K:BB across 31.1 innings for the season. Wojciechowski is currently projected to take the mound next on Sunday against the Yankees.

Surrendered three earned runs Wojciechowski allowed three earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three across four innings Wednesday against the Rays. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Wojciechowski had to work out of trouble almost immediately, as he allowed two doubles in the first inning. However, he managed to keep the Rays scoreless until a two-run home run by Brandon Lowe the third inning -- the big blow of his outing. Wojciechowski now has a 5.13 ERA with a 24:10 K:BB across 26.1 innings. He is projected to take his next turn through the rotation Monday at Toronto.

Struggles in short outing Wojciechowski (1-3) took the loss against Boston on Thursday, pitching 3.2 innings and allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four.

Impact Wojciechowski was coming off his first win of the campaign in his previous start, but he was unable to replicate his success against Boston. The right-hander allowed a season-high seven hits and needed 88 pitches to retire only 11 batters. Wojciechowski's ERA rose to 4.84 with the rough outing while his WHIP spiked to 1.34. He'll look for a better outcome when he heads to Tampa Bay to take on the Rays on Wednesday.
