The Cubs signed Martin to a minor-league contract Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Lance Brozdowski of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Martin made 17 appearances out of the Orioles' bullpen this past season, finishing with a 6.00 ERA but a more promising 23:9 K:BB over 18 innings. The 30-year-old has been a full-time reliever each of the last two seasons after missing the 2023 campaign following lat surgery. Martin will try to win a spot in the Cubs' bullpen but is likely ticketed for Triple-A Iowa to kick off the 2026 season.

The Marlins re-signed Tinoco (elbow) to a minor-league contract Jan. 5.

Tinoco is recovering from UCL surgery and will miss the entire 2026 season, so it's likely a two-year minor-league deal. The right-handed reliever made 20 appearances for Miami in 2025, posting a 5.12 ERA and 10:8 K:BB over 19.1 innings while notching four saves.

The Pirates signed Davis to a minor-league contract Jan. 5.

Davis owns a career 9.53 ERA and 58:29 K:BB over 62.1 innings covering parts of four seasons at the big-league level. The 28-year-old has plenty of past experience as a starting pitcher, but he was used almost exclusively as a reliever in 2025, and he'll likely open 2026 in the bullpen at Triple-A Indianapolis.

The Phillies signed Pinto to a minor-league contract Jan. 6.

Pinto slashed .231/.263/.404 during parts of three seasons with the Rays from 2022-2024. He spent the 2025 campaign in the minors split between the Blue Jays and Diamondbacks organizations, hitting .259/.309/.498 with 12 homers in 64 games. Pinto will provide the Phillies with some experienced catching depth.

Johnson agreed to a contract with the Reds on Sunday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

The terms of the deal aren't clear, but Johnson is likely to receive less than the $7 million club option that was declined by Atlanta in November. Johnson recorded one save and 16 holds with a 3.05 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 59:19 K:BB across 65 innings for Atlanta last year.

Waldschmidt could break camp in a starting outfield role for the Diamondbacks in 2026, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen talked with reporters Saturday after the team traded outfielder Jake McCarthy to the Rockies, and he did not rule out the possibility of a prospect breaking camp with a starting role in the big leagues. Although Hazen didn't name names, he was likely referring to Waldschmidt, the club's top prospect. With Lourdes Gurriel (knee) also potentially missing the first half of the season, there could be plenty of at-bats available in the outfield. The 23-year-old Waldschmidt, who played all three outfield positions during stints at High-A Hillsboro and Double-A Amarillo in 2025, would need to be added to the 40-man roster, and he has yet to play at Triple-A.

Lawlar is expected to play center field in addition to reps in the infield during spring training, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

After seeing Lawlar's struggles at third base last season, the Diamondbacks gave him center field reps during the Dominican Winter League but not a ton, according to Gilbert. As such, the organization will give him a serious look there this spring. There's a need in the outfield after Arizona traded Jake McCarthy to Colorado for right-handed pitching prospect Josh Grosz. That move, along with Lourdes Gurriel (knee) possibly missing the first half of the season, leaves the outfield in a state of uncertainty. Corbin Carroll will hold down right field while Alek Thomas is likely to start in center field against righties. Beyond that, Lawlar is in the mix along with Blaze Alexander, Jorge Barrosa, Tim Tawa and possibly top prospect Ryan Waldschmidt.

Bregman signed a five-year, $175 million contract with the Cubs on Saturday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Bregman played his first nine major-league seasons with Houston before spending last year with Boston. Over 495 regular-season plate appearances with the Red Sox, the third baseman slashed .273/.360/.462 with 18 home runs, 62 RBI, 64 runs and a stolen base. Bregman's .822 OPS was his highest mark since 2019, and he demonstrated his usual excellent eye at the plate with a 14.1 strikeout rate and 10.5 percent walk rate. Bregman should take over as Chicago's starter at the hot corner, which calls into question what the Cubs' plan will be for youngster Matt Shaw.

Toglia signed a minor-league contract with the Reds on Saturday.

Toglia looked to be a key part of Colorado's future when he posted a .767 OPS with 25 home runs and 10 stolen bases over 457 plate appearances for the big-league club in 2024, but the 2019 first-round draft pick dropped off dramatically this past season, slashing just .190/.258/.353 with 11 long balls and three steals across 337 plate appearances. He's always demonstrated plenty of power and also went deep 11 times over 42 contests for Triple-A Albuquerque last season, but Toglia has also struggled making a contact, and he posted an awful 39.2 percent strikeout rate with the Rockies in 2025. That was a large part of the reason why Colorado designated him for assignment and subsequently non-tendered him in November. However, the Reds will give him a chance to make an impression, though Toglia will likely open the season in the minors.

Atlanta designated Waldichuk for assignment Saturday.

Just two days after being claimed off waivers from the Athletics on Thursday, Waldichuk will once again enter the waiver process following Atlanta's addition of Tyler Kinley on Saturday. After missing the entire 2024 campaign while recovering from Tommy John surgery, the 28-year-old Waldichuk returned to action at Triple-A last season but struggled with an 8.65 ERA and 2.06 WHIP across 51 innings.
