With the Pirates designating Doval for assignment, he will be hitting the waiver wire. Due to this, the rest of the league will have the chance to claim him off waivers if they wish to.

Doval appeared in 20 games with the Pirates after being acquired from the Yankees, where he had a 0-1 record, a 3.79 ERA, and 23 strikeouts. This was after he had a 3-1 record and a 4.54 ERA in 44 games for the Yankees this season before being traded to Pittsburgh.
It will now be interesting to see if another team takes a chance on Doval after his stints with the Yankees and Pirates. Given the success he had during his time with the San Francisco Giants, it should not be ruled out.
