The Diamondbacks released Juan Jaime Monday, according to the team’s transactions page. Arizona had designated the right-hander for assignment Saturday to create roster space for Lyle Overbay.
Jaime has not pitched since undergoing Tommy John surgery in April 2010. He has a 2.42 ERA with 11.8 K/9 and 5.7 BB/9 in 111 2/3 career minor league innings over the course of four seasons. Arizona claimed Jaime off of waivers from the Nationals last winter.
