Siani

The 26-year-old outfielder was designated for assignment earlier in the week and passed through waivers unclaimed. He’ll continue to function as extra outfield depth for the O’s at the Triple-A level.

Siani loses his spot on Baltimore’s roster with the club needing to bring up Chadwick Tromp as an emergency catcher. The 26-year-old center fielder appeared in just one game for the Orioles. He should garner some interest on waivers as a defensive specialist on a contending roster.

Siani, claimed on waivers from the Dodgers a month ago, will be making his Orioles debut and figures to serve mostly as a pinch-runner and defensive replacement. He’s hit .185/.306/.274 in 44 games in Triple-A this year.

Siani was waived last week when the Dodgers claimed Alek Thomas off waivers from the Diamondbacks. Now the Orioles will claim Siani. The 26-year-old was hitting .225/.355/.303 with 21 runs scored and five steals in 29 games at Triple-A. He will report to Triple-A Norfolk.

The Dodgers needed to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Alek Thomas, so Siani was let go. The 26-year-old was hitting .225/.355/.303 with 21 runs scored and five steals in 29 games at Triple-A. He has plus speed and plays good defense in center field, so there always seem to be teams ready to take a chance on him.

Siani is the most prominent inclusion among the big leaguers in this latest batch of cuts from Dodgers camp. The 26-year-old defensive specialist figures to be up with Los Angeles at some point in a bench role. Hope is the biggest prospect in this group as he ranks right up there with Eduardo Quintero, Josue De Paula and Mike Sirota as one of the organization’s top prospects.

Are the Dodgers just bored? Siani was designated for assignment by Los Angeles and claimed by the Yankees a little over a week ago, and now they’ve decided they want him back, after all. To make room for Siani, the team designated Andy Ibáñez for assignment three weeks after they signed him for $1.2 million. Baseball is weird.

Siani was claimed by the Braves off waivers from the Cardinals in November and then claimed by the Dodgers off waivers from the Braves in December, but was then waived by the Dodgers earlier this week to make room for Kyle Tucker. The 26-year-old outfielder will now join his fourth team this offseason. He has just a .688 career OPS in the minors, but is a good defender and baserunner, which makes him good depth for an organization.

Siani will likely go on waivers for a third time this winter after previously bring dropped by the Cardinals and Braves. As a top-flight center fielder with pinch-running ability, he’s a decent bench option on the right team. He just shouldn’t be starting games very often.

Siani, 26, was designated for assignment by Atlanta after the team signed Mike Yastrzemski. The outfielder is a terrific defender, and he should be a late-inning option for Los Angeles in 2026 — assuming he sticks in the organization, of course.
