The Mariners signed Davis to a minor-league contract Thursday that includes an invitation to spring training, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis missed time with injuries again in 2025 in the Yankees organization, but he was productive when on the field, slashing .248/.324/.576 with 12 homers in 36 contests at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The former top prospect is likely headed back to the Triple-A level again to start 2026, but he will compete in spring training for a roster spot with the big club.

Davis (undisclosed) has gone 3-for-14 with two home runs and three RBI in four games for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had been sidelined for approximately two months due to the undisclosed injury before making his return to the Triple-A lineup. Once a top prospect in the Cubs system who saw his rise to the big leagues get derailed by injuries, the 25-year-old Davis has revived his stock with a strong showing in the Yankees organization this season. Through 27 games between Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and Double-A Somerset, Davis has hit .293 with 11 home runs and two stolen bases.

Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre placed Davis on its 7-day injured list June 26 due to an unspecified injury.
EDGE Analysis
A former top prospect in the Cubs organization who was the 2021 All-Star Futures Game MVP, Davis saw his star fade in recent seasons while he was slowed by several injuries. After being non-tendered by the Cubs over the winter, Davis connected with the Yankees on a minor-league deal and had seemed to restore some value upon getting cleared to join Double-A Somerset in late May. He quickly earned a promotion to Triple-A and had slashed .308/.415/.692 with nine home runs and two steals in 23 games between the two affiliates, but any momentum Davis might have made toward earning his first big-league call-up appears to have stalled. The 25-year-old exited a June 22 game with an undisclosed injury and was placed on the IL a few days later, with the Yankees having yet to provide further word on the severity of his latest setback on the health front.

The Yankees signed Davis to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Aram Leighton of Just Baseball reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis is a former top prospect who has had terrible luck with injuries, as he hasn't played more than 71 games in any of the last three seasons. He's still just 25, so Davis would appear worthy of a dice roll on a minor-league deal. The outfielder slashed .214/.359/.469 with 11 home runs in 47 games at Triple-A Iowa in the Cubs organization in 2024.

Davis was non-tendered by the Cubs on Friday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis was designated for assignment Tuesday to make room for top prospect Owen Caissie. Davis' standing within the organization took a hit due to a string of serious back injuries and he played in only 55 games in 2024. He'll still be only 25 during the 2025 season, so if he can remain on the field he could revitalize his career.

The Cubs designated Davis for assignment Tuesday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Although Davis slashed .214/.359/.469 at Triple-A Iowa in 2024, various injuries limited him to just 55 minor-league games (47 in Triple-A, eight in High-A). His 40-man roster spot will now be handed to top prospect and fellow outfielder Owen Caissie.

The Cubs recalled Davis from Triple-A Iowa on Friday and placed him on the 60-day injured list with a left ankle fracture, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis recently returned to action at Triple-A after missing two months with a back fracture, but his season will now end prematurely due to his fractured ankle. Placing him on the big-league 60-day IL opens a spot on the 40-man roster for Jimmy Herget, who was claimed off waivers from Atlanta on Friday and will report to Iowa.

Davis (back) has gone 4-for-27 with a double, three walks, three runs and one RBI in seven games for Triple-A Iowa since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Aug. 27.
EDGE Analysis
Davis missed just over two and a half months with a back fracture but is finally healthy again heading as the International League season winds down. Over 166 plate appearances with Iowa this season, Davis is slashing .212/.361/.470 with 10 home runs and one stolen base.

Davis was placed on Triple-A Iowa's 7-day injured list Tuesday with a back fracture, Tommy Birch of Des Moines Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old is without a timeline for return but won't be seeing game action anytime soon. Davis is hitting just .229 through 36 games for Iowa this season, though he's shown off his power and plate discipline with 10 home runs and a 19:31 BB:K.

Davis opened the season on the IL while recovering from an unspecified injury but went 7-for-28 with a 6:9 BB:K over an eight-game rehab assignment with High-A South Bend.
