Strahm appeared in only nine games between the majors in minors last season, and San Diego decided not to tender him a contract for 2022. He missed the final six weeks of the campaign with right knee inflammation, and it's unclear where he stands in his recovery.

Palumbo (undisclosed) was non-tendered by the Giants on Tuesday, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Andres Munoz RP | SEA
Mariners' Andres Munoz: Inks four-year deal with Seattle
Munoz agreed to a four-year, $7.5 million contract with the Mariners on Tuesday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
The deal will buy out all of Munoz's arbitration years and also includes multiple club options. The 22-year-old righty missed all but the final weekend of the 2021 campaign while recovering from Tommy John surgery, but he showcased himself well in his first taste of big-league action in 2019 with a 3.91 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 30:11 K:BB over 23 innings.

Megill was non-tendered by the Twins on Tuesday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Megill was claimed off waivers from the Cubs earlier in the day, but he didn't have a spot on the Twins' roster for long. Minnesota may have made the move in hopes of bringing him back via a minor-league deal. Megill made his big-league debut with Chicago last season and had an 8.37 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB in 23.2 innings.

Coulombe posted a 3.67 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 33:7 K:BB over 34.1 innings for Minnesota during 2021, so he should receive at least some interest on the open market.

Iglesias agreed to a four-year contract with the Angels on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Iglesias rejected the $18.4 million qualify offer from the Angels earlier in November, and he'll end up returning to the team on a $58 million deal, per Jon Morosi of MLB Network. The right-hander was acquired by the Halos last offseason and enjoyed a strong first season in Los Angeles, converting 34 of 39 save chances with a 2.57 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 103:12 K:BB across 70 innings. He's locked in as the Angels' closer for the foreseeable future.

Suero entered 2021 as a solid bullpen piece for Washington over the previous three years, but he struggled last season with a 6.33 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 44:15 K:BB over 42.2 innings. He may need to settle for a minor-league deal this offseason.
