  • Sam Moll RP | CIN

    Reds' Sam Moll: Settles with Cincinnati

    The Reds and Moll avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $875,000 contract, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

    He'll have a chance to earn an additional $150,000 in incentives. Moll split his time between the Reds and Triple-A Louisville in 2025, posting a 6.38 ERA and 22:10 K:BB over 18.1 frames with the big club. The lefty reliever does not have minor-league options remaining, so he would have to pass through waivers in order to be sent down.

  • Jose Suarez SP | ATL

    Braves' Jose Suarez: Avoids arbitration with Atlanta

    Atlanta and Suarez avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Friday.

    Suarez made seven appearances (one start) with Atlanta in 2025, finishing with a 1.86 ERA and 16:10 K:BB across 19.1 innings of work. The left-hander holds a career 5.30 ERA over parts of seven major-league seasons and does not have minor-league options remaining, so he could open the 2026 campaign as a long reliever.

  • Yohan Ramirez RP | PIT

    Pirates' Yohan Ramirez: Avoids arbitration

    Ramirez and the Pirates agreed to a one-year, $825,000 contract Thursday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

    Ramirez had been looking at arbitration if he and Pittsburgh had not been able to agree upon a deal. The Dominican reliever appeared in 24 games with the Pirates in 2025, posting a 5.40 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 45:16 K:BB over 33.1 innings while notching one hold and a 3-3 record.

  • Danny Young RP | ATL

    Mets' Danny Young: To be non-tendered

    The Mets are expected to non-tender Young (elbow), Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

    Young gave up four earned runs over 8.1 innings with the Mets in 2025 before undergoing Tommy John surgery in May, which will likely keep him out through the first half of the 2026 season. The 31-year-old will become a free agent once the transaction is official.

  • Connor Thomas RP | MIL

    Braves' Connor Thomas: Lands in Atlanta on MiLB pact

    Atlanta signed Thomas (elbow) to a minor-league contract Nov. 6.

    A Rule 5 pick of the Brewers last offseason, Thomas made just two appearances for Milwaukee before eventually undergoing internal brace surgery on his left elbow in July. The lefty will be sidelined at least until around midseason next year.

  • Braves' Raisel Iglesias: Staying in Atlanta

    Iglesias signed a one-year, $16 million contract with Atlanta on Wednesday.

    After posting a 3.21 ERA and 1.00 WHIP across 67.1 innings and recording 29 saves in 2025, Iglesias will officially return for a fifth season in Atlanta. He figures to remain the team's primary closer in 2026, and although he got off to a rough start this year, his reliability shouldn't be much of a concern to fantasy managers, as he turned in a 1.96 ERA and 0.83 WHIP alongside a 51:12 K:BB after the beginning of June.

  • Ryan Rolison RP | ATL

    Braves' Ryan Rolison: Shipped to Atlanta

    Atlanta acquired Rolison from the Rockies on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.

    Rolison had been removed from the Rockies' 40-man roster Tuesday and is now headed to a new organization. The left-hander held an ugly 7.02 ERA and 25:20 K:BB over 42.1 innings for Colorado in 2025, but Atlanta believes it can coax better results out of the 2018 first-round pick.

  • Ronan Kopp RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Ronan Kopp: Placed on 40-man roster

    The Dodgers selected Kopp's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

    Kopp received a promotion to Triple-A in early July, after which he turned in a 4.56 ERA and 1.71 WHIP with a 41:20 K:BB across 25.2 innings. The 23-year-old's addition to the 40-man roster will prevent the Dodgers from losing him during the Rule 5 Draft, but he is likely to return to the minors once the 2026 campaign begins.

  • Tommy Henry SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Tommy Henry: Designated for assignment

    The Diamondbacks designated Henry (elbow) for assignment Tuesday.

    Henry is slated to miss most, if not all, of the 2026 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery in June. His lengthy expected absence makes it unlikely that another team will be willing to pick him up off waivers, so the D-backs will take the opportunity to remove the injured lefty from their 40-man roster while protecting four prospects from the Rule 5 Draft.

  • Ryan Rolison RP | ATL

    Rockies' Ryan Rolison: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Rockies designated Rolison for assignment Tuesday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

    Rolison was a first-round pick (22nd overall) in the 2018 First-Year Player Draft, but he hasn't been able to perform to that pedigree. The lefty had been buried in the minors until last season, when he got into 31 games with Colorado and pitched to an ugly 7.02 ERA and 1.77 WHIP over 42.1 innings. Rolison's 25:20 K:BB paints a pretty clear picture of how much he struggled to get big-league batters out, and the Rockies now appear set to move on.
