Heading to San Diego on minor league contract
PSan Diego Padres  
December 13, 2016
Rienzo signed a minor league deal with the Padres on Tuesday, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
ANALYSIS
He hasn't had much success at the major league level (5.90 career ERA), but the right-hander did manage to post a strong 2.51 ERA and 9.3 K/9 with the Marlins Triple-A affiliate last season. Rienzo has a decent chance of landing a spot on the major league roster at some point during the 2017 season due to the lefty-heavy nature of the Padres bullpen, although he likely won't be trusted in a fantasy-relevant role given his past numbers.
