The Diamondbacks reassigned Aguilar to their minor-league camp Thursday.
Aguilar made nine relief appearances for Arizona in 2021, but after being outrighted off the 40-man roster in the offseason, he faced long odds to break camp as a member of the big-league bullpen. He'll continue to serve as organizational relief depth at Triple-A Reno.

Diamondbacks' Miguel Aguilar: Earns win in relief
Rotowire
Aguilar (1-1) earned the win in relief Tuesday against the Phillies after tossing 1.1 scoreless innings, fanning one.
Aguilar has made five appearances this season and had allowed runs in each of his prior three outings before Wednesday's solid performance, recording four outs while needing just 19 pitches (13 strikes) to do so. He still owns a woeful 9.64 ERA through five appearances, but this outing was clearly a step in the right direction for the left-hander.
