Cubs signed LHP Josh Fleming to a minor league contract.

Fleming finds a new opportunity with the injury-depleted Cubs after being released by the Blue Jays over the weekend. The soft-tossing 30-year-old southpaw allowed four runs over three innings during his lone appearance for Toronto earlier this year. He’s made 81 appearances, including 25 starts, in the big leagues since 2020.

Blue Jays re-signed LHP Josh Fleming to a minor league contract.

The 29-year-old southpaw opted to explore the free agent market rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday, but ultimately, he made the decision that a return to the Blue Jays made the most sense for him. He’ll continue to function as extra pitching depth at Triple-A Buffalo.

Blue Jays designated LHP Josh Fleming for assignment.

Fleming has been unceremoniously booted from Toronto’s bullpen after being asked to soak up three innings following Max Scherzer’s early exit from Monday’s start against the Dodgers after just two innings. The 29-year-old lefty figures to pass through waivers unclaimed and head back to Triple-A Buffalo as emergency depth.

Blue Jays reassigned OF Eloy Jiménez, RHPs Yariel Rodríguez, Jorge Alcala, Jesse Hahn and LHPs Joe Mantiply and Josh Fleming to minor league camp.

Jiménez is one of the prominent late-camp cuts for the Blue Jays after a respectable showing as a non-roster invitee, hitting .286 with two homers in 18 Grapefruit League contests. Rodríguez is the notable reliever included in this latest batch after being removed from Toronto’s 40-man roster during the offseason.

Mariners optioned RHPs Blas Castano and Hagen Danner to Triple-A Tacoma; reassigned LHP Josh Fleming to minor league camp.

Even with George Kirby (shoulder) set to open the season on the injured list, it was always unlikely that Castano would break camp with the big league club. He’ll open the season in the rotation at Triple-A Tacoma while Danner and Fleming function as extra bullpen depth for the M’s.

Fansided’s Robert Murray reported that the Mariners are signing LHP Josh Fleming to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Fleming pitched to a 4.02 ERA in 25 appearances (three starts) for the Pirates in 2024 before being designated for assignment. He signed a minor league deal with the Mariners and registered a 4.50 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 13/5 K/BB ratio in 16 innings for Triple-A Tacoma. The Mariners obviously saw enough to bring him back on another minor league deal where he will likely serve as organization depth.
