Dodgers' Taylor Trammell: Claimed by Dodgers
The Los Angeles Dodgers claimed Taylor Trammell off waivers from the Mariners on Tuesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.Trammell had been designated for assignment by Seattle after failing to make the Opening Day roster. The former top prospect is out of options, so the Dodgers will need to clear space for him on their 26-man and 40-man rosters. There wouldn't appear to be a path to much playing time for Trammell, although Jason Heyward (back) is banged up. The 26-year-old has hit just .168/.270/.368 with a 37 percent strikeout rate over parts of three big-league seasons.

The Seattle Mariners designated Taylor Trammell for assignment Thursday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.Trammell was decent during spring training, slashing .250/.385/.406 across 39 plate appearances, but he will be pushed off the Mariners' 40-man roster heading into the new campaign.

Mariners' Taylor Trammell: Knocks first spring homer
Taylor Trammell went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in a Cactus League tie with the Brewers on Friday.The 26-year-old outfielder's second-inning homer with Luis Urias aboard put the first runs of the day on the board. It was Trammell's first round-tripper of the spring. Trammell also pushed his Cactus League average and OPS to .276 and .865, respectively, with the blast; however, whether he makes the cut for the Opening Day roster with Mitch Haniger, Julio Rodriguez and Luke Raley healthy across the outfield, and several other players versatile enough to spell them also available, remains to be seen.

Mariners' Taylor Trammell: First hits of spring Wednesday
Taylor Trammell went 2-for-2 with an RBI double, a stolen base and a run in the Seattle Mariners' Cactus League loss to the Royals on Wednesday.After going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in his first two Cactus League games, Trammell broke out for a highly productive afternoon. The 26-year-old prospect has hit well at Triple-A Tacoma but struggled throughout his time in the majors over his last three seasons, producing just a .168 average, .639 OPS and 37.0 percent strikeout rate across the 351 career plate appearances he's logged against big-league arms. The offseason additions of Mitch Haniger and Luke Raley have fortified the Mariners' corner outfield spots, but Trammell could potentially carve out a role as a reserve option in both the outfield and at designated hitter with a strong enough spring.
