Catches on in indy ball De Geus has signed with the yet-to-be-named Atlantic League based in Frederick, Maryland.
Sent to Triple-A De Geus was outrighted to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.
Impact 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.

Designated for assignment De Geus was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Friday.
Impact 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.

Dodgers clinch postseason berth in 8-4 win over D-backs

Snares win Wednesday 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.
Impact 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 then develop more fully in the minors next year.

Falters in loss 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.
Impact 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.

Blows save, picks up win 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.
Impact 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.

First career win de Geus (1-0) won Friday's 5-2 victory against the Dodgers, getting two outs in the fifith inning.
Impact de Geus relieved starter Taylor Widener with two on and one out in the fifth and recorded two straight outs to fall in line for the win. Surpisinigly, the win is the rookie's first decision in 32 innings this season, though he's mostly been deployed in mop-up duty.

Recalled by Diamondbacks De Geus was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.
Impact De Geus was claimed off waivers from the Rangers on Friday, and he'll join the major-league roster just one day later. The right-hander should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever after he posted an 8.44 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 26.2 innings across 19 big-league appearances to begin the year. Corbin Martin was sent down in a corresponding move.

Claimed by Arizona The Diamondbacks claimed de Geus off waivers from the Rangers on Friday.
Impact De Geus was DFA'd by Texas last week after the right-hander struggled to a 8.44 ERA across 19 big-league appearances. After the Dodgers passed on reclaiming the Rule 5 draftee, he'll now head to the Arizona organization. The Diamondbacks have not announced where de Geus will be assigned, but he figures to be a strong candidate to join the major-league roster.

Designated for assignment The Rangers designated de Geus for assignment Wednesday.
Impact 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.

Stabilizes after rough debut De Gues struck out one over a scoreless inning in Saturday's 7-4 loss to San Diego.
Impact De Gues 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 Gues' 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 not counted on for important relief work.
