ATL Relief Pitcher #62

Braves claimed RHP George Soriano off waivers from the Orioles.

Soriano was booted from the roster by the Orioles on Monday, and Atlanta will give the 26-year-old reliever a look this spring — assuming he doesn’t get the boot to clear room on the 40-man roster himself.

Ryne Stanek

FA Relief Pitcher #55
Robert Murray of FanSided reports that the Cardinals are signing free agent reliever Ryne Stanek.

Financial teams have not been disclosed as of yet, but it’d be a surprise if this wasn’t a one-year deal. Stanek forged a disappointing 5.30 ERA in his time with the Mets in 2025, but the 34-year-old still throws hard and can generate whiffs. He’ll have a chance to be a high-leverage option for St. Louis in 2026.

Ryne Stanek

FA Relief Pitcher #55
Chris Cotillo reports that the Cardinals are among the teams showing interest in free agent Ryne Stanek.

Stanek, 34, has had several teams showing interest in him as of late, including the Cubs. The 34-year-old right-hander would have a chance to be a high-leverage option for St. Louis in 2026, but it seems a little unlikely he’d be competing for saves.

Andy Ibanez

FA 3rd Baseman #77
Kiley McDaniel of ESPN reports that the Dodgers are signing Andy Ibáñez to a one-year contract.

The deal is pending a physical. Ibáñez was non-tendered by the Tigers at the end of the 2025 season, but he’s a 32-year-old who can play third and second base while showing a propensity for hitting left-handed pitching. He’ll likely see the overwhelming majority of his playing time at third base when a southpaw is the opposing starter.

Seth Martinez

BOS Relief Pitcher #40

Andrew Parker of Sox Prospects reports that the Red Sox have signed Seth Martinez to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Martinez spent 2025 with the Marlins, and he forged a 5.40 ERA in 6 2/3 innings. The 31-year-old has had success at the highest level with the Astros, and a good showing in spring training could see him win a low-leverage bullpen job.

Zak Kent

TEX Relief Pitcher #61
Rangers claimed RHP Zak Kent off waivers from the Cardinals.

Kent was designated for assignment by St. Louis after the Cardnals acquired Justin Bruihl. The 27-year-old reliever should compete for one of the final spots in the Rangers’ bullpen if he doesn’t become victim of a roster crunch before spring training.

Max Kepler

FA Right Fielder #17

Major League Baseball announced Friday that Max Kepler has been given an 80-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance.

The substance that Kepler tested positive for is Epitrenbolone, using which violates Major League Baseball’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program. The 32-year-old free agent outfielder will need to find a team willing to sign him first before he’s able to even begin serving that suspension. After a miserable season with the Phillies, that looks like a tall task at the moment.
