La Sorsa signed a minor-league contract with the Pirates on Saturday that includes an invitation to big-league spring training, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

La Sorsa gave up eight earned runs in just 6.2 innings with the Reds in 2025, but he finished the minor-league season with a 2.59 ERA and 1.27 WHIP across 48.2 innings at Triple-A. He'll get another chance to work his way back to the majors during spring training; otherwise, he'll help round out the bullpen at Triple-A Indianapolis.

General manager Ross Atkins said Thursday that the Blue Jays aren't committed to using Hoffman as their primary closer in 2026, Rob Longley of The Toronto Sun reports.

Although he finished 2025 with a career-high 33 saves, Hoffman's first year in Toronto was met with struggles. He posted a 4.37 ERA and 1.19 WHIP over 68 innings during the regular season and, most notably, blew a save during Game 7 of the World Series. Atkins brought up Yimi Garcia (elbow) and Louis Varland as potential options to work the ninth inning next season instead of Hoffman and didn't rule out the possibility of acquiring someone in the offseason to fill the role.

Kaiser signed a minor-league contract with the Royals on Saturday.

Kaiser entered free agency after being outrighted by the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, and it didn't take long for him to land elsewhere. The 28-year-old finished the Triple-A season with a .236/.345/.406 slash line over 273 plate appearances, and he'll most likely report to Triple-A Omaha to begin the 2026 campaign.

Navarreto elected free agency Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Navarreto spent the majority of the 2025 season at Triple-A Jacksonville, where he slashed .224/.300/.385 with 27 RBI and 22 runs scored across 180 plate appearances. The 30-year-old backstop will most likely sign another minor-league contract during the offseason.

Zuber elected free agency Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Zuber made 10 appearances in the majors in 2025, allowing 15 earned runs over just 12 innings. He finished the Triple-A season with a 5.45 ERA and 1.53 WHIP across 38 frames and will likely be limited to minor-league contract offers this winter.

Tarnok elected free agency Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Tarnok was outrighted off Miami's 40-man roster Wednesday. Now a free agent, the 26-year-old righty could receive a fair amount of attention after posting a 3.28 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 68.2 innings at Triple-A Jacksonville and allowing just two runs while striking out 10 batters across 7.1 MLB frames in 2025.

Tinoco (elbow) elected free agency Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Tinoco was outrighted off the Marlins' 40-man roster Wednesday and will now enter the open market while he recovers from a UCL surgery he underwent in September. He's expected to take the mound again in 2027.

Bellozo elected free agency Saturday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Bellozo will enter the free-agent market after being outrighted off the Marlins' 40-man roster Wednesday. The 25-year-old posted a 4.65 ERA and 1.33 WHIP across 81.1 innings in 2025 and has worked as both a starter and reliever during his time in the majors.

Dubin (elbow) elected to become a free agent Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Dubin cleared waivers after being removed from the Orioles' 40-man roster but has opted for free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment to the minors. The right-handed reliever ended the season on the injured list with elbow discomfort, and it's unclear what his current health situation is.

The Dodgers outrighted Grove (shoulder) to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Grove missed the 2025 season while recovering from surgery to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder. It's uncertain whether he will be ready for the start of the 2026 season, and he will have to fight his way back onto the 40-man roster.
