Austin Kitchen, 27, was designated for assignment by the Mariners to clear roster space for Donovan Solano but went unclaimed on waivers.
Kitchen didn't pitch in a big league game with the Mariners after being claimed from Miami, but he has a solid minor league record with a 3.78 ERA.
With a 55.1% ground ball rate in the minors and good command, Kitchen shows potential as depth for the Mariners' bullpen.
Despite his struggles in the majors, Kitchen's performance in Triple-A demonstrates he can contribute effectively if called upon by Seattle.
