Mariners signed RHP Jeff Marquez to a minor league contract.

Marquez gave up a run over just four innings this season for the Yankees after beginning the year in the White Sox organization. Once a pretty decent prospect, the 27-year-old has failed to produce as he moved up the ladder, holding a 5.06 ERA over 366 Triple-A innings. He'll likely compete for a roster spot as a long man out of the bullpen.

Yankees claimed RHP Jeff Marquez off waivers from the White Sox.

He was originally drafted by the Yankees in 2004 and was shipped to Chicago as part of the Nick Swisher trade in November of 2008. The Yankees will need to announce a corresponding roster move.

Jeff Marquez - R - Reds

White Sox sent RHP Jeff Marquez outright to Triple-A Charlotte.

It's a bit surprising that Marquez wasn't claimed on waivers after posting a 3.63 ERA and 16/2 K/BB ratio over 17 1/3 innings this spring, but the White Sox will gladly keep him. Because Marquez was removed from the 40-man, look for both Brent Lillibridge and Lastings Milledge to make the Opening Day roster.
