Gore rejected an outright assignment to Triple-A Syracuse and elected free agency Thursday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Gore joined the Mets on a minor-league deal in June and joined the big-league club at the end of August. He saw regular-season action in the majors for the first time since 2019 and went 1-for-7 with a run scored and three stolen bases in 10 games.

Rotowire
Gore pinch ran, stole a base and scored a run in a 7-3 win Sunday over the Pirates.
Gore entered the game in the eighth inning as a pinch runner for Tomas Nido. He promptly stole second base and advanced to third on a throwing error, scoring later on a single by Brandon Nimmo. Since joining the Mets on Sept. 1, Gore has pinch run three times, stealing a base each time. He has 43 stolen bases while compiling just 79 plate appearances in his eight-year big-league career.

Mets' Terrance Gore: Back in majors in New York
Rotowire
The Mets selected Gore's contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Gore inked a minor-league deal with the Mets in early June and will join the big-league club for the stretch run. The speedy outfielder hasn't seen game action in the regular season since 2019, but he could be a solid defensive and baserunning option off the bench for New York's playoff push.

Rotowire
Gore signed a minor-league contract with the Mets on Wednesday, Jacob Resnick of SNY.tv reports.
The outfielder last appeared with the Braves during their postseason run in 2021, but his last plate appearance in a regular-season game came in 2019 with the Royals. Known for his speed, Gore has 40 stolen bases over 77 career plate appearances.

Braves' Terrance Gore: Outrighted to Triple-A
Rotowire
Gore was outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.
Gore typically finds himself in the minors for most if not all of the regular season before joining a playoff roster as a pinch runner. It looks like that will be the plan again heading into next season.

Braves' Terrance Gore: Makes World Series roster
Rotowire
Gore was added to Atlanta's World Series roster Tuesday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
There's nobody like Gore in the league right now. He's received zero MLB plate appearances in the last two seasons and has only come to the plate more than five times in one of his seven major-league campaigns, yet he frequently finds himself on a postseason roster thanks to his elite speed. While he could get the chance to swipe a bag or two if the situation presents itself, it's difficult to select him in a fantasy lineup based purely on the hope that he might enter off the bench. Utility man Johan Camargo was left off the roster to create space for Gore.

Braves' Terrance Gore: Not on NLCS roster
Rotowire
Gore has been left off Atlanta's roster for the NLCS against the Dodgers.

Braves' Terrance Gore: Added to NLDS roster
Rotowire
Gore was included on Atlanta's roster for the NLDS against the Brewers.
Gore spent the entire 2021 campaign at Triple-A Gwinnett after signing a minor-league deal with Atlanta in February, but he'll nonetheless join the big-league roster for the playoffs. The 30-year-old should serve as a pinch-running and defensive specialist, much as he did during the Royals' World Series runs back in 2014 and 2015.

Braves' Terrance Gore: Signs minors deal with Atlanta
Rotowire
Gore signed a minor-league contract with Atlanta in mid-February.
The world's preeminent pinch runner has received more than five major-league plate appearances just once in his career, yet he's managed to get at least a bit of time in the big leagues in each of the last seven seasons. He's highly unlikely to carve out a significant role on a strong Atlanta roster, but he'll stand a decent chance of getting called up down the stretch or in the playoffs to steal a couple bases.

Terrance Gore: Becomes free agent
Rotowire
The Dodgers declared Gore a free agent Sunday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Gore didn't receive a callup to the Dodgers during the regular season, but he was with the big club for a portion of the team's run to the World Series in the playoffs. The 29-year-old was expected to serve as a pinch-running specialist off the bench, but he ultimately went used throughout the postseason. He'll now look to land a minor-league deal with the Dodgers or another organization this winter.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Outrighted to Triple-A
Rotowire
Gore cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Gore had his contract selected by the Dodgers at the start of the postseason but was only on the playoff roster through the NLDS and never appeared in a game. Gore made two appearances as a pinch runner and defensive replacement in the first week of the season but didn't have a plate appearance in 2020.

Gore will not be on the roster for the NLCS against the Braves, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
The pinch-running specialist was on the roster for the Division Series but did not enter a game. The Dodgers decided his spot was better used on a pitcher, so Alex Wood will join the roster in his absence.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Up with big club for postseason
Rotowire
The Dodgers selected Gore's contract from their alternate site Wednesday in advance of their wild-card series with the Brewers, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Gore didn't log a single plate appearance during the regular season, but the Dodgers will bring the speedy outfielder aboard for the three-game series as a pinch-running specialist. Over 111 career regular-season and postseason games in the big leagues, Gore has gone 45 for 55 in stolen-base attempts.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Clears waivers
Rotowire
Gore cleared waivers and was outrighted to the Dodgers' alternate training site Monday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Expanded rosters theoretically benefit pinch-running specialists like Gore, but he appeared in just two games before being designated for assignment in late July. If he returns to the active roster at some point later in the year, it's unlikely to be in a fantasy-relevant role.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
Gore was designated for assignment Thursday, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Gore appeared in two games as a pinch runner after having his contract selected by the Dodgers on July 22. Los Angeles recalled pitcher Victor Gonzalez to take Gore's spot on the 30-man roster.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Contract selected
Rotowire
Gore's contract was selected by the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Manager Dave Roberts recently hinted that Gore could make the club as a baserunning specialist, and the team confirmed the decision by selecting his contract Wednesday. Gore is likely to be used almost entirely as a pinch runner or as the baserunner placed on second base at the start of extra innings per MLB's revised rules for the 2020 campaign. Dustin May was optioned to the Dodgers' alternate training site in a corresponding move, though his placement there is likely to be temporary.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Joins player pool
Rotowire
Gore was added to the Dodgers' 60-man roster Friday, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.
After spending spring training at major-league camp, there was speculation that Gore could be added to the Dodgers' player pool as a baserunning specialist. He officially reported to camp Friday with just under a week remaining until Opening Day. Since Gore serves mainly as a pinch runner, he likely won't need as much time to prepare for the season as other players would. However, it'd unclear whether there will be a spot for him on the expanded major-league roster this season.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Could be added to roster
Rotowire
Manager Dave Roberts suggested that Gore may make the Dodgers' roster as a baserunning specialist, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
The speedster wasn't invited to the team's summer camp, but Roberts hinted that "something certainly could happen in the next few days" when speaking about Gore. The 29-year-old would presumably need less time to prepare for the season since he would likely be used almost exclusively as a pinch runner, particularly in extra innings (with teams allowed to start each extra frame with a runner at second base during the 2020 campaign). Gore has the rare distinction among hitters of compiling more career games (100) than plate appearances (77) as he has been featured primarily as a pinch runner throughout his time in the majors.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Could benefit from expanded rosters
Rotowire
Gore has a chance to make the big-league squad if the 2020 season takes place with expanded rosters, Pedro Moura of The Athletic reports.
The Dodgers signed Gore to a minor-league contract in February, and the veteran was initially considered an extreme longshot to break camp with the club. However, the possibility of expanded rosters could make room for a specialist such as Gore, who has stolen 40 bases in 100 career games. Given Gore's struggles at the plate -- he owns a career .224 batting average -- and the Dodgers' outfield depth, he would likely be used almost exclusively off the bench if he does make the team.

Dodgers' Terrance Gore: Invited to Dodgers' camp
Rotowire
Gore signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Monday as a non-roster invitee, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Gore appeared in 37 major-league games for the Royals in 2019 prior to being traded to the Yankees and spending the remainder of the season at the Triple-A level. The 28-year-old has been unimpressive at the plate over his career, but he's been a valuable baserunner, as demonstrated when he logged 13 stolen bases in his limited time with the Royals last season. Given his struggles at the plate, it's unlikely that Gore will begin the season on the major-league roster, but he could benefit from time with the major-league coaching staff.
