Alec Marsh RP | KC
Royals' Alec Marsh: Had labral surgery in October
Marsh underwent surgery in October to repair a labral tear in his right shoulder, MLB.com reports.
Marsh missed the entire 2025 season with shoulder issues and it was concluded last month that surgery was required. He is expected to need around a year to recover, so the right-hander is unlikely to be ready to pitch in a big-league game again until 2027. Marsh posted a 4.53 ERA and 123:39 K:BB over 129 innings for Kansas City in 2024.

Orioles' Dietrich Enns: Re-ups with Baltimore
The Orioles re-signed Enns to a one-year contract with a club option for 2027 on Monday.
Baltimore had a $3 million club option on Enns for 2026, but instead of picking that up it has hammered out a new deal with the left-hander. Enns was acquired by the Orioles via trade in late July and pitched well for them down the stretch, holding a 3.14 ERA and 34:11 K:BB over 28.2 frames. The southpaw will likely open 2026 in the bullpen, though he also offers the flexibility to be used as a starting pitcher.

Cole Wilcox RP | SEA
Rays' Cole Wilcox: No longer on 40-man roster
The Rays designated Wilcox for assignment Monday.
Wilcox made his major-league debut this season with the Rays, getting roughed up for seven runs (three earned) over one inning in his lone appearance. The 26-year-old will go through the waivers process and could remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed.

Garrett Acton RP | MIA
Rays' Garrett Acton: Booted from 40-man roster
The Rays designated Acton for assignment Monday.
Acton made one scoreless appearance for the Rays in 2025 but spent virtually all of his time at Triple-A Durham, where he held a 3.68 ERA and 71:27 K:BB over 58.2 frames. The 27-year-old is no longer on the 40-man roster but could stick around in the organization if he passes through waivers.

Jeff Hoffman RP | TOR
Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Blows save in Game 7
Hoffman blew a save against the Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series on Saturday, allowing one run on one hit while striking out two batters over 1.1 innings.
Hoffman entered in the eighth frame with the Blue Jays up 4-3. He got Tommy Edman to ground out to preserve the lead and then struck out the first batter he faced in the ninth, but Hoffman then served up a game-tying solo homer to Miguel Rojas. Over three World Series appearances, that long ball was the only run Hoffman yielded across 4.1 frames.

Rico Garcia RP | BAL
Orioles' Rico Garcia: Re-signs with Orioles
The Orioles re-signed Garcia to a one-year contract Thursday.
Garcia pitched for three different teams during the 2025 season but finished out the year strongly with the Orioles, collecting a 2.84 ERA and 20:6 K:BB over 19 innings. The right-hander will turn 32 in January and should fill a middle-relief role in Baltimore next season.

Carson Fulmer RP | PIT
Angels' Carson Fulmer: Sent outright to Triple-A
The Angels outrighted Fulmer (elbow) to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.
Fulmer can decline the outright assignment and elect free agency if he wants, but it's unclear what his intentions are. The righty's 2025 season ended prematurely due to an elbow strain, but he did not require surgery and should heal after an offseason of rest.
