The Mariners outrighted Zavala to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.
The 31-year-old backstop was cast off the 40-man roster Friday but will stick around in the Seattle organization after clearing waivers. Over his three stints on the Mariners' active roster this season, Zavala slashed .154/.214/.282 across 43 plate appearances.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Dropped from 40-man
The Mariners designated Zavala for assignment Friday.
Just three days after rejoining the active roster Tuesday, Zavala will once again lose his spot on the Mariners' active and 40-man rosters. The 31-year-old backstop never appeared in a game during his latest stint in the majors, and he'll most likely pass through waivers unclaimed after posting a .660 OPS through 120 Triple-A plate appearances.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Called up Tuesday
Zavala had his contract selected from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.
Zavala will return to the major-league roster after being sent down July 8, posting a .182 average with three home runs, 14 RBI and 15 runs scored over 32 games with Tacoma. The 31-year-old will provide Seattle with an additional depth option behind Cal Raleigh and Mitch Garver at catcher. In a pair of corresponding moves, starting pitcher Luis Castillo (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day injured list and reliever Yimi Garcia (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Outrighted to Triple-A
The Mariners outrighted Zavala to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.
It's the second time since late June that Zavala has been outrighted off the Mariners' 40-man roster. He has the ability to elect free agency, but it would appear he'll accept the assignment and remain in the organization.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Pushed off 40-man
The Mariners designated Zavala for assignment Saturday.
Zavala was selected to the active roster Tuesday to provide additional depth behind the plate, and he'll now be pushed back off the 40-man without appearing in a game for Seattle. The 30-year-old backstop passed through waivers unclaimed when he was DFA'd in June, and it's likely he does so again this time around. Emerson Hancock was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Selected to majors
The Mariners selected Zavala's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.
The Mariners will add Zavala to their active roster to provide some security behind the plate while Mitch Garver battles a wrist injury. The 30-year-old Zavala has slashed just .154/.214/.282 across 43 plate appearances in the majors this season and is unlikely to see much playing time during his stint with Seattle. Jhonathan Diaz was optioned to Tacoma in a corresponding move.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Outrighted to Triple-A
Zavala cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Zavala was DFA'd by the Mariners on June 18 after slashing .154/.214/.282 with a 37.2 percent strikeout rate over 43 major-league plate appearances. The 30-year-old catcher will look to find his swing in Triple-A as he attempts to work his way back up to the majors.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: DFA'd by Seattle
The Mariners designated Zavala for assignment Tuesday.
Zavala has played in just 18 games this season and has a .154/.214/.282 slash line and 37.2 percent strikeout rate in 43 plate appearances. The Mariners already have Cal Raleigh and Mitch Garver on the big-league roster, so the club will roll with two catchers going forward.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Draws rare start Thursday
Zavala started at catcher and went 0-for-1 with a walk in an extra-inning loss to the White Sox on Thursday.
Making his first appearance of any kind since June 1, Zavala was able to reach base for the first time since May 23 via his one walk. The 30-year-old backstop has seen Cal Raleigh, who eventually replaced him in Thursday's game, draw the overwhelming majority of starts behind the dish, and more recently, Mitch Garver has filled in at catcher on a handful of occasions as well. Zavala's playing time figures to remain sparse, barring injury to one of the two veterans in front of him.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Homers in Sunday's win
Zavala went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Athletics.
Zavala took Kyle Muller deep in the sixth inning for his first home run of the year. It was just his second RBI and third extra-base hit on the season, as he only has 31 plate appearances while operating as the team's backup catcher to Cal Raleigh.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Produces in rare start
Zavala went 3-for-4 with an RBI single, a double and two runs during a win over the Rockies in the second game of a doubleheader Sunday.
Zavala got in on the Mariners' much-needed offensive breakout in a major way, as he paced the team with his three-hit day. The reserve backstop had only 12 plate appearances on the season coming into Sunday, last having played April 13. Cal Raleigh, who belted his team-leading fifth home run in Sunday's second game, has understandably been laying claim to the bulk of playing time behind the dish, although both he and Zavala were in the lineup for the closing installment of the twin bill since Raleigh filled the designated-hitter role.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Projected to make roster
Zavala is hitting just .158 across 23 Cactus League plate appearances, but he's nevertheless predicted to make the Opening Day roster by Daniel Kramer of MLB.com.
The 30-year-old was acquired from the Diamondbacks in a late-November trade to offer some experienced depth at catcher behind Cal Raleigh. The disappointing spring at the plate notwithstanding, Zavala, who holds a career .210 average and .622 OPS over 514 major-league plate appearances, is still slated to spell Raleigh on occasion against right-handed pitching, although Kramer points out the offseason arrival is expected to see less action than Tom Murphy did in that same No. 2 role a season ago.

Mariners' Seby Zavala: Headed to Seattle
The Mariners acquired Zavala from the Diamondbacks on Wednesday along with Carlos Vargas in exchange for Eugenio Suarez, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Zavala was a waiver claim by the Diamondbacks in September but made just four starts during his three and a half weeks with the team. The 30-year-old catcher has a career .622 OPS over parts of four major-league seasons spent mostly with the White Sox. He could open 2024 as Cal Raleigh's backup.

Diamondbacks' Seby Zavala: Claimed by Diamondbacks
Zavala was claimed off waivers by the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Zavala was designated for assignment by the White Sox earlier this week but has found a new home and goes to a team in playoff contention. The 30-year-old is out of options, so he'll head straight to the major-league club.

White Sox's Seby Zavala: Loses 40-man spot
The White Sox activated Zavala (oblique) from the 10-day injured list and designated him for assignment Monday.
The move comes as somewhat of a surprise, as Zavala had been seeing the bulk of the starts at catcher prior to straining his oblique in early August. However, the White Sox are prepared to go with Korey Lee and Yasmani Grandal as their catching duo down the stretch. Zavala has a career .613 OPS over parts of four big-league seasons, but with so many teams looking for catching depth, it's possible he gets claimed on waivers.

White Sox's Seby Zavala: Rehab assignment on tap
The White Sox announced Sunday that Zavala (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Charlotte in the coming days, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Zavala has been on the injured list for two weeks due to a strained left oblique, but he appears to be closing in on a return since he's been cleared to resume game action in the minors. If all goes well during his rehab assignment, it's possible he rejoins the major-league club sometime this week.
