The Pirates signed Lamb to a minor-league contract Thursday with an invitation to major-league spring training, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Lamb appeared in only 18 major-league games in 2023 but put up an .874 OPS in 85 games (357 plate appearances) between the Triple-A affiliates of the Yankees and Angels. The 33-year-old corner infielder owns a career .235/.326/.427 big-league batting line spread over parts of 10 seasons.

Lamb signed a minor-league contract with the Yankees on Friday. Lamb will report to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after slashing .317/.453/.492 across 150 plate appearances for Triple-A Salt Lake, but only .216/.259/.353 over 54 PAs with the Angels this season. The veteran utility player doesn't have a spot on the 40-man roster, and is likely only an option for a promotion in an emergency.

The Angels released Lamb on Sunday. Lamb cleared waivers after the Angels designated him for assignment Friday, but rather than keeping the veteran corner infielder in the minor-league system, he'll be given the chance to pursue opportunities elsewhere. The 32-year-old posted a .945 OPS in 34 games at Triple-A Salt Lake this season but struggled in his more limited opportunity at the big-league level (.216/.259/.353 slash line over 54 plate appearances).
