Leody Taveras agreed to a one-year, $2 million contract with the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.Taveras will head east after spending 2025 with the Rangers and Mariners. The 27-year-old slashed just .205/.226/.304 in the regular season across 180 big-league plate appearances, though he posted a much more respectable .809 OPS in 81 games at Triple-A Tacoma. Now with the Orioles, he is likely to work as a depth piece at Triple-A Norfolk or come off the bench for the big club.

Mariners' Leody Taveras: Getting steady playing time in RF
Leody Taveras will start in right field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the White Sox.Since being claimed off waivers from the Rangers and getting added to the active roster May 7, Taveras has started in right field in all but one of the Seattle Mariners' ensuing 13 games. However, Taveras has largely failed to capitalize on the opportunity, as he's slashing just .150/.186/.225 with zero home runs, one stolen base, four RBI and three runs while striking out at a 38.6 percent clip. Though the Mariners don't have many appealing alternatives available, Taveras' hold on an everyday role could nonetheless be tenuous if he continues to flounder at the plate.

Mariners' Leody Taveras: Claimed off waivers by Mariners
The Seattle Mariners claimed Leody Taveras off waivers from the Rangers on Tuesday.Seattle will be responsible for the remainder of the $4.75 million Taveras is owed in 2025, and it will retain control of the outfielder through the 2027 season. Taveras has slashed only .241/.259/.342 for Texas this season and has a career OPS of .661, but the switch-hitting 26-year-old is a viable depth option for a team that has Victor Robles (shoulder) and Luke Raley (oblique) on the injured list and Randy Arozarena (hamstring) banged up. Taveras could see ample playing time in right field for the Mariners.
