Marlins' Pat Venditte: Back with Marlins
Venditte signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Venditte joined the Marlins as a non-roster invitee earlier in the year but elected free agency in July after he was left out of the team's 60-man player pool. Now with the Marlins dealing with multiple absences related to COVID-19, it sounds like the veteran reliever could be summoned to the majors in short order. Venditte made just two appearances in 2019 and allowed six runs over 3.1 innings, though he also posted a 2.57 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 15 outings (14 innings) in 2018.

Venditte made only two appearances with the Giants last season and allowed six runs over 3.1 innings, though he also posted a 2.57 ERA and 1.00 WHIP in 15 outings for the Dodgers in 2018.

Marlins' Pat Venditte: Latches on with Miami
Venditte signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Friday which includes an invitation to spring training, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
Venditte didn't see much action during the 2019 season with the Giants, making just two appearances out of the bullpen (3.1 innings). He allowed six runs and fanned two over that short stretch. The switch pitcher will have an opportunity to win a relief role during spring training, though there's a good chance he'll begin the year at Triple-A Wichita.

Giants' Pat Venditte: Heading to majors
Venditte was called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.
Venditte joined the Giants on a one-year deal this offseason but didn't pitch well enough in spring training to crack the Opening Day roster. However, the switch pitcher has a 2.57 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB over 14 innings with Sacramento and should fill a low-leverage role in San Francisco's bullpen.

Giants' Pat Venditte: Signs with Giants
Venditte agreed to a one-year, $585,000 contract with San Francisco on Friday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
The Dodgers did not tender Venditte a contract for next season after he spent a majority of the 2018 campaign at the Triple-A level. He did appear in 15 big-league games, posting a solid 2.57 ERA and 1.00 WHIP with nine strikeouts in 14 innings of relief. The switch-handed pitcher will provide some extra depth in the Giants' bullpen next year.
