Headed back to minors The Nationals optioned Abbott to Triple-A Rochester following Sunday's 9-3 win over the Phillies, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Impact MLB teams won't be able to carry more than 12 pitchers on the 26-man active roster beginning Monday, so Abbott's demotion will bring the Nationals down to the maximum allotted arms. He made his team debut Sunday, striking out one over a scoreless inning to finish out the game.

Traded to Giants Abbott was traded from the Cubs to the Diamondbacks in exchange for cash considerations Thursday, Russell Dorsey of Bally Sports reports.

Impact Abbott was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Saturday but will now get an opportunity with the Giants. Since the right-hander began the season in the minors, he'll likely head to Triple-A Sacramento to begin his time with his new organization. He made two appearances in Iowa early in the year and allowed three runs in six innings.

Designated for assignment Abbott was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Saturday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Abbott began the season at Triple-A Iowa and will now lose his place on the 40-man roster after Mark Leiter's contract was selected by the Cubs on Saturday. Abbott has allowed three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out six in six innings in his first two starts in Iowa this year, and he'll likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Surrenders two across five frames Abbott didn't factor into the decision during Friday's 4-3 loss to St. Louis, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks with four strikeouts in five innings.

Impact Making his first big league start, Abbott pitched well to every Cardinal batter other than Tyler O'Neill, who tagged the righty for two solo home runs, and enjoyed his best outing all season in what is likely his final appearance of the campaign. The rookie concludes 2021 without a decision in 17.1 innings featuring a 6.75 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 12:11 K:BB.

Impact Abbott had been in the minors since late July, and he posted a 4.56 ERA and 1.46 WHIP in 47.1 innings during that time. He'll make his first major-league start in Friday's series opener against St. Louis after he recorded an 8.03 ERA and 2.03 WHIP in 12.1 innings across his first six big-league appearances.

Impact The righty has pitched 11.1 innings of relief for the Cubs this season, posting a 6.35 ERA with eight strikeouts and seven walks across his five appearances.

Rejoins Cubs Abbot was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Impact The right-hander will rejoin the big-league club after spending the past couple weeks in the minors. He's worked out of the bullpen for the Cubs this season with four runs allowed over 8.1 frames in four appearances, but he's operated as a starter at Triple-A. Abbott and Trevor Williams should be in the mix for a spot start Sunday with Jake Arrieta (hamstring) landing on the injured list.
