The Arizona Diamondbacks claimed right-hander Thyago Vieira off waivers on Thursday following his one-game stint with the Baltimore Orioles.
Vieira, 31, was designated for assignment on Monday by the Orioles, who acquired him and minor-league pitcher Aneuris Rodriguez from the Milwaukee Brewers on May 25 for minor-league right-hander Garrett Stallings.
Vieira’s lone appearance for the Orioles was May 27, when he didn’t retire a batter while allowing a triple, four walks and three runs in an 11-3 victory over the visiting Boston Red Sox.
The Brewers designated him for assignment on May 20 after he recorded one save with a 5.64 ERA, 13 walks and 25 strikeouts in 22 1/3 innings over 16 relief appearances.
In parts of five seasons with the Seattle Mariners (2017), Chicago White Sox (2018-19), Brewers (2023-24) and Orioles, Vieira is 2-2 with two saves, a 6.71 ERA, 32 walks and 51 strikeouts in 51 innings over 42 relief appearances.
