Solak

Solak, who hit .262/.327/.372 in 253 games for the Rangers from 2019-22, spent last season with the Mariners’ Triple-A club and batted .311/.406/.446, though that never got him a callup. He’s no longer much of an option at second base, and the bat probably isn’t there to make him very useful as a corner outfielder.

Solak and Chavis are the most notable cuts from Mariners camp as both have extensive big-league experience and figured to have a decent shot at making the season-opening roster with a strong spring performance.

The versatile 29-year-old spent most of the 2023 campaign at the Triple-A level where he slashed .238/.353/.362 with eight homers, 49 RBI and an 80/53 K/BB ratio over 411 plate appearances between three organizations. He’ll at veteran depth for the M’s.

Solak was jettisoned from the 40-man roster to make room for Andrew Vasquez on the active roster on Friday. He’ll be organizational depth for the Tigers at the Triple-A level.

The move clears a spot for the newly-claimed Andrew Vasquez on the 40-man roster. Solak has appeared in two games in the majors this season between the Tigers and Braves.

Solak got into one game for the Tigers over the weekend after outfielder Akil Baddoo landed on the injured list, but has been shipped out with lefty-masher Matt Vierling returning ahead of Monday’s series opener agains the Braves. He’ll head back to Triple-A Toledo as extra organizational depth.

Solak was just claimed off waivers from the Braves on Friday and likely didn’t even have time to drive to Toledo yet. The 28-year-old offers plenty of defensive versatility, but hasn’t hit well enough in the big leagues over the last few years to carve out even a part-time role. He’ll likely be up for a few weeks until Akil Baddoo (quad) is ready to return from the injured list.

Solak will head to Triple-A Toledo as extra organizational depth for the Tigers. The versatile 28-year-old got into one game for the Braves earlier this season and has batted .256/.358/.415 with six homers and two steals across 190 plate appearances this season at the Triple-A level.

Solak appeared in one game this season for the Braves and has spent the majority of the time at Triple-A Gwinnett, batting .256/.358/.415 with six homers and two steals across 190 plate appearances. The 28-year-old offers plenty of defensive versatility and should garner some interest on waivers.

The move was made after Thursday’s game. Solak was claimed off waivers from the White Sox earlier this month and appeared in just one game after his call-up this week.
