De Los Santos signed a one-year contract with the Astros on Friday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

De Los Santos put up a 4.03 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 22.1 innings after signing with the Astros in August, and his new deal will ensure he remains in the organization for the start of the 2026 campaign -- likely serving as a middle reliever.

The White Sox did not tender Tauchman (knee) a contract for 2026 on Friday, making him a free agent.

The veteran outfielder had a .756 OPS and nine homers for Chicago last season, but he was limited to 93 games due to injuries. Tauchman has a .740 OPS across the past three seasons and should be able to land a big-league contract for 2026, though he's likely best suited as more of a No. 4 outfielder.

The Mets non-tendered Castillo on Friday.

Just two weeks after claiming Castillo off waivers from Baltimore, the Mets will now send him into free agency. The 29-year-old southpaw posted a 3.94 ERA and 1.69 WHIP across 32 innings between four different teams in 2025. He'll now have an opportunity to pick where he begins the 2026 campaign, though he may have to settle for a minor-league deal.

The Rangers non-tendered Webb on Friday.

Webb signed a one-year deal with the Rangers in December after spending the 2024 campaign with the Orioles, but the 32-year-old right-hander will now be on the lookout for a team in need of bullpen depth. He finished the 2025 regular season with seven holds along with a 3.00 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 58:19 K:BB across 66 innings.

Hill agreed to a one-year, $900,000 contract with the White Sox on Friday, avoiding arbitration.

The 29-year-old outfielder was claimed off waivers from the Marlins during the final week of the season. Hill played in 57 games between the two clubs in 2025 and had a .216/.281/.328 slash line and 32.2 percent strikeout rate. He'll likely serve as a depth outfielder for Chicago to begin 2026.

The Rangers non-tendered Sborz on Friday.

Sborz started the 2025 season on the 60-day injured list after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder in November of 2024. He was able to begin a rehab stint in July but was unable to progress enough in his recovery to see major-league action. Sborz will now enter free agency and will look to sign with a team in need of right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

Fraley was non-tendered by the Rays on Friday, Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com reports.

Fraley was designated for assignment by the Rays only two weeks after being claimed off waivers. Fraley has had at least a .700 OPS in five consecutive seasons but has also struggled to remain healthy, which will likely limit him to a very modest contract.

Morel was not tendered by the Rays on Friday, Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com reports.

Morel was designated for assignment by the Rays on Tuesday but theoretically could have stayed in the organization after clearing waivers. He's now a free agent and could have to settle for a minor-league deal after struggling across the last two seasons.

Heim was non-tendered by the Rangers on Friday.

Heim's tenure with the Rangers has seemingly come to an end after spending the last five seasons with the organization. He spent most of the 2025 regular season as the starting catcher, though he did split time behind home plate with Kyle Higashioka at times. Heim ended the season with a .213/.271/.332 slash line with three steals, 38 runs scored, 11 home runs and 43 RBI over 433 plate appearances. The 30-year-old pro will look to catch on with a team in need of depth at catcher by the start of spring training.

The Royals did not tender Melendez a contract for 2026 on Friday, making him a free agent.

Melendez had the potential to be a key lineup piece for Kansas City after clubbing 18 homers as a rookie in 2022 and posting a .714 OPS the following season, but he regressed the past two years. The 26-year-old went 5-for-65 with a 35.4 percent strikeout rate in just 23 big-league games during 2025.
