Athletics' Steve Lombardozzi: Signs minor-league deal with A's
Steve Lombardozzi signed a minor-league contract with an invite to spring training Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.Lombardozzi has appeared in the majors in six of the last seven seasons, though he hasn't played more than 20 games in the big leagues since 2013. He's a versatile utility player who has appeared at four different positions, though his glove grades out poorly and his bat is quite weak, with a .260/.292/.333 career slash line. He could stick with the Oakland Athletics as organizational depth and could potentially appear in a few big-league games during an injury crisis, but he's unlikely to have much fantasy impact even if given a surprising amount of playing time.

Marlins' Steve Lombardozzi: DFA'd Tuesday
Steve Lombardozzi was designated for assignment by the Miami Marlins on Tuesday, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.Lombardozzi was ousted from the roster to clear room for Christian Colon, who was claimed off waivers from the Royals. The 28-year-old saw a brief stint with the big club this season due to a myriad of injuries to the Marlins' infield, though he failed to take advantage of his opportunity, going hitless in eight at-bats. While Lombardozzi has a decent amount of major-league experience to his name, he hasn't collected a hit in the big leagues since 2014, so he likely won't be viewed as anything more than organizational depth wherever he winds up.

Marlins' Steve Lombardozzi: Contract purchased from Triple-A
The Miami Marlins purchased Steve Lombardozzi's contract from Triple-A New Orleans on Wednesday, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.Adeiny Hechavarria (oblique) was the latest Marlins infielder to hit the disabled list Wednesday after Martin Prado (hamstring) and Miguel Rojas (thumb) preceded him earlier this week, so Lombardozzi was brought in to add some insurance around the diamond. It's not expected that Lombardozzi, who last appeared in the big leagues in 2015 with the Pirates, will see meaningful at-bats, but he should act as the top backup at multiple spots until the Marlins are able to get either Hechavarria or Prado back from injury.
