The 28-year-old appeared in two games last season for the Los Angeles Dodgers and did not allow a run, striking out three batters.
He spent two previous seasons with the Minnesota Twins, getting into 10 games and struggling with a 10.80 ERA.
A native of Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., Vasquez was originally selected by the Kansas City Royals in the 32nd round of the 2015 MLB Draft out of Westmount College in California.
