The Giants claimed Sanmartin off waivers from the Reds on Thursday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Sanmartin will get a fresh start out west after spending the last six seasons as part of the Reds organization. The left-hander, who turns 30 in April, appeared in one big-league game during the 2025 campaign. He tallied a 2.67 ERA, a 1.24 WHIP and a 55:18 K:BB across 67.1 innings for Triple-A Louisville.

Atlanta declined Fletcher's $8 million club option for 2026 on Thursday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Fletcher hasn't appeared in a big-league game since April 2024, so it doesn't come as much of a surprise that Atlanta decided to pass on giving him $8 million in 2026 and instead pay him a $1.5 million buyout. The 31-year-old will attempt to rely on his defense to attract a minor-league deal in the offseason, though his .483 OPS in Triple-A may drive his demand down.

The Yankees extended a one-year, $22.05 million qualifying offer to Grisham on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com

Grisham, off the heels of a breakout 2025 campaign, will now have to decide whether to accept the option or pursue a deal in free agency. The veteran outfielder hit 34 homers during the regular season after never having previously hit more than 17 in a year, while his OPS jumped to .812 after not logging a figure higher than .675 in the three prior seasons. Thursday's move means the Yankees will receive draft compensation if the left-handed outfielder leaves in free agency.

Cabrera cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Cabrera pitched for the Cubs, Twins, Mets and Pirates in 2025 and finished the season with a 6.54 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across 42.2 total innings -- by far the worst marks of his career. He'll likely have to settle for a minor-league contract this winter before attempting to work his way back into the big leagues in 2026.

The Cubs extended Imanaga a one-year, $22.05 million qualifying offer on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Chicago opted to decline Imanaga's three-year, $57.75 million option earlier this week, but they'll extend the 32-year-old southpaw a qualifying offer. Imanaga could forego the qualifying offer and hit the open market, which would net the Cubs draft compensation if he signs elsewhere. After a stellar rookie campaign in 2024, Imanaga took a step back during the 2025 regular season. His ERA dropped from 2.91 to 3.73, his K/9 moved from 9.0 to 7.3 and his HR/9 went from 1.4 to 1.9.

Misiewicz cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Misiewicz spent most of his time at Triple-A St. Paul in 2025, where he ended the season with a 3.82 ERA and 1.03 WHIP through 33 innings. The left-hander also made five appearances for the Twins but surrendered five earned runs in just 4.2 innings, so he'll most likely have to settle for another minor-league pact in free agency.

Tonkin cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

After being called up from Triple-A in late July, Tonkin posted a 4.88 ERA and 1.17 WHIP over 24 innings with the Twins. Now having lost his place on the 40-man roster, the 35-year-old will test his value in free agency, though he isn't likely to attract more than a minor-league deal.

The Diamondbacks extended a one-year, $22.05 million qualifying offer to Gallen on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Gallen is coming off the worst season of his MLB career, with his 4.83 ERA, 15 losses, 8.2 K/9 and 1.5 HR/9 all being career worsts. Though it's unclear just how large the market will be for Gallen after a down year, he could decline the qualifying offer in hopes of securing a long-term deal ahead of his age-30 campaign. If he does so and then signs elsewhere, Arizona would receive draft compensation.

Hatch cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Hatch lost his place on Minnesota's 40-man roster after posting a 5.45 ERA and 1.67 WHIP over 33 innings upon joining the club in August. He'll likely aim to sign a minor-league deal this winter.

Miranda cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

After posting a .763 OPS in the big leagues in 2024, Miranda's performance declined considerably in 2025, as he slashed just .195/.272/.296 across 371 plate appearances at Triple-A St. Paul. His previous success could net him a fair amount of attention in free agency, though his options will likely be limited to minor-league contracts.
