The Mariners released DeShields on May 1. After failing to win a spot on the Mariners' Opening Day roster while attending spring training as a non-roster invitee, DeShields reported to Triple-A Tacoma and slashed .222/.300/.222 with no extra-base hits and a 3-for-5 success rate on stolen-base attempts over 12 games before receiving his walking papers. The 30-year-old outfielder hasn't surfaced in the majors since the 2021 season, when he appeared in 25 games for Cincinnati.

DeShields was released by the Marlins on Sunday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports. DeShields was in camp as a non-roster invitee but was unable to show enough during spring training to warrant a roster spot. The 29-year-old made 25 appearances with the Reds last season and hit .255/.375/.426 in 47 at-bats, but he's never approached those numbers in larger sample sizes.

DeShields signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Friday.

He appeared in 25 big-league games in 2021 and hit .255/.375/.426 in 58 plate appearances. The 29-year-old will compete with fellow non-roster invitee Roman Quinn for a spot on Miami's Opening Day roster as a reserve outfielder.
