Suwinski was outrighted to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.
Suwinski was scooped up off waivers by the Dodgers on Feb. 21, and he appears on track to begin the year at Triple-A Oklahoma City after passing through another round of waivers unclaimed. He struggled to a .147 average with three home runs, 10 RBI, seven stolen bases and 15 runs scored a season ago in 59 games with Pittsburgh.

Dodgers' Jack Suwinski: Claimed by Dodgers
Rotowire
The Dodgers claimed Suwinski off waivers from the Pirates on Saturday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Suwinski will claim a spot on Los Angeles' 40-man roster after being DFA'd by the Pirates on Monday. The 27-year-old is out of minor-league options, however, so he will have to make the Dodgers' Opening Day roster to keep his spot, which seems unlikely considering he's slashed just .169/.271/.297 in the majors over the past two seasons.

Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Cleared off 40-man roster
Rotowire
The Pirates designated Suwinski for assignment Monday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Suwinski ended up being the casualty after the Pirates needed to free up a 40-man roster spot for the signing of Marcell Ozuna. After showing promise in his first two big-league seasons with 45 home runs over 250 games, Suwinski managed a weak .169/.271/.297 batting line and 29.9 percent strikeout rate over the subsequent two seasons. The 27-year-old doesn't have minor-league options remaining, but he's shown enough upside that he could draw interest via waivers.

Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Avoids arbitration with Pirates
Rotowire
Suwinski signed a one-year, $1.25 million contract with the Pirates on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Suwinski struggled to get in a groove at the plate in the majors in 2025, finishing the season with just a .534 OPS through 178 plate appearances. He turned in a .954 OPS across 230 plate appearances at Triple-A Indianapolis, however, which was good enough to earn him a $465,000 raise and another year in the organization. The 27-year-old finished the year as Pittsburgh's primary left fielder but is sure to face some competition during spring training.

Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Some late improvement
Rotowire
Suwinski went 2-for-3 with an RBI on Saturday against Atlanta.
Suwinski delivered an RBI in the sixth inning to put the Pirates up 3-1. He's had an abysmal offensive season and spent much of the year in the minors, though he has at least one hit in five of his last seven games. Suwinski has closed the season as the Pirates' primary left fielder against right-handed pitching, though he's likely to face significant competition for a roster spot to begin 2026.

Rotowire
Suwinski will start in left field and bat seventh in Tuesday's game versus the Reds.
Suwinski looks to have leap-frogged the slumping Tommy Pham in left field, as this will be his fourth start over the last five games against right-handers. The left-handed-hitting Suwinski hasn't done much himself lately, going 2-for-16 with nine strikeouts since being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis earlier this month.

Rotowire
The Pirates activated Suwinski (groin) from the 10-day injured list Monday.
Suwinski has been shelved since late August with a groin strain but is ready to roll after going 3-for-9 with a pair of home runs in three rehab contests with Triple-A Indianapolis. The 27-year-old had been seeing regular starts in the outfield against right-handed pitching pitching before he got hurt, but Suwinski would appear in line for a reserve role in the final two weeks of the season.

Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Heading to bench Wednesday
Rotowire
Suwinski is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.
Suwinski had started each of the last three games and six of the previous seven, but he's likely to serve as more of a fourth outfielder for Pittsburgh heading into the final month of the season after center fielder Oneil Cruz returned from the injured list Tuesday. However, with the Pirates handing more frequent days off to veterans Andrew McCutchen and Tommy Pham down the stretch, Suwinski could still be in store for a handful of starts per week.

Rotowire
Suwinski is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.
The left-handed-hitting Suwinski has been drawing regular starts against right-handed pitching of late, but he'll head to the bench Monday while the Blue Jays send righty Kevin Gausman to the hill.

Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Comes up clutch Friday
Rotowire
Suwinski went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 win over the Cubs. He was also hit by a pitch.
Suwinski broke a 2-2 tie with a go-ahead solo shot in the ninth, which proved to be the game-winner. It was the 27-year-old's second homer in his past 10 games, though he's just 5-for-28 in that span. On the season, he's slashing a bleak .125/.282/.240 with three home runs, six RBI, 11 runs scored and six steals across 117 plate appearances.
Pirates' Jack Suwinski: Rare multi-hit performance
Rotowire
Suwinski went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a run scored and a walk Sunday against the Reds.
Suwinski has earned playing time across all three outfield spots in the last week, starting six of seven games against right-handed pitchers. As pedestrian as his performance was, Sunday was one of his better games of the season and marked only his second multi-hit performance across 26 starts. Suwinski is hitting a miserable .126 for the campaign and has only a .092 ISO across 106 plate appearances.

Since then, the 27-year-old has struggled at the plate with a .103 (3-for-29) average, four runs scored and three RBI across 13 contests.
