Pinder will retire from baseball after Saturday's game with Triple-A Gwinnett, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It will bring an end to a seven-year career for Pinder. The infielder/outfielder hit .242/.294/.417 over 1,740 plate appearances at the major-league level -- all with the Athletics -- with 62 homers and 197 RBI. He was released by the Nationals after he signed with the team as a minor-league free agent, and he hit .333/.357/.593 over six games with Gwinnett after signing with the Atlanta organization in the middle of May.

Pinder signed a minor-league contract with Atlanta on Tuesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder was released by the Nationals on Friday, and it didn't take long for the veteran to find a new home. The former Oakland regular will provide some organizational depth with Triple-A Gwinnett, and if he plays well there, he could become a bench option for Atlanta before the end of the 2023 season.

Washington released Pinder on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder struggled mightily in his time with Triple-A Rocester with a .615 OPS over 55 at-bats in the International League. The former Oakland reserve will now be free to sign another club, and a team looking for some versatility could show some interest in his right-handed bat on a minor-league contract.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder failed to make the Reds as a non-roster invitee but has quickly latched on with another organization. It's a good landing spot given the Nats' lack of talent and Pinder's versatility. It shouldn't be long before the former Athletic is back in the big leagues.

The Reds released Pinder on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder signed an NRI deal with the Reds in January after seven seasons with Oakland. He failed to perform well this spring, slashing .103/.167/.154 in 42 plate appearances, and will now once again become a free agent. The 30-year-old utility man has never been known as a threat at the plate, but his defensive versatility could draw some interest.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder appeared in 111 games a season ago for Oakland, slashing .235/.263/.385 with 12 home runs, 42 RBI, two stolen bases and 38 runs scored. He figures to compete for a spot in the outfield with TJ Friedl, Jake Fraley and Stuart Fairchild, however, Murray notes that Pinder has taken reps in center field and at shortstop over the offseason to put himself in a position to crack the Opening Day roster.

Pinder went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Pinder was effective from the No. 3 spot in the order, knocking three singles and scoring in the fifth and ninth innings. He'd gone 3-for-25 over 11 games since his last multi-hit effort. The versatile 30-year-old is up to a .234/.261/.383 slash line with 12 home runs, 42 RBI, 38 runs scored and two stolen bases through 108 contests. He continues to lack a defined place in the lineup, which has caused his playing time to dwindle down the stretch.

Pinder is not in Sunday's lineup against the Mets, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
