Diamondbacks' Ty Tice: Finds new organization

Arizona claimed Tice off waivers from Atlanta on Wednesday and optioned him to Triple-A Reno.

The 25-year-old right-hander reached the majors for the first time this season, appearing in five games between Toronto and Atlanta. The latter organization kept him around for about two months before electing to boot him off the 40-man roster, but Arizona evidently recognized enough potential in him to put in a waiver claim. Expect Tice to get a look in the big leagues with Arizona at some point later in 2021 if he can first string together a few quality relief appearances at Reno.
