Okey signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Jan. 3.

EDGE Analysis

Okey slashed .281/.345/.414 with 26 RBI across 235 plate appearances last season with the Angels' Triple-A affiliate. Now with the Dodgers, the 29-year-old backstop will provide organizational depth and will only see the majors if Will Smith or Austin Barnes are forced to miss any amount of time.

The Angels outrighted Okey to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Okey passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment Saturday. The 28-year-old catcher is off the Angels' 40-man roster but will remain part of the organization.

The Angles designated Okay for assignment Saturday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

It clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Eduardo Escobar after Escobar was acquired in the three-player deal with the Mets on Friday. Okey could see interest on the waiver wire for a team looking for catching depth, but if he goes unclaimed/isn't traded he'll head back to Salt Lake to provide depth at the position for the Angels.

The Angels optioned Okey to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

With Chad Wallach (concussion) back from the 7-day injured list, the Angels no longer had a need for Okey as an extra catcher. The 28-year-old struck out in his only two plate appearances during his brief stint with the big club.

The Reds released Okey on Aug. 13.

EDGE Analysis

Okey saw action in seven big-league games with the Reds earlier this season, but even with Tyler Stephenson (collarbone) and Aramis Garcia (finger) out with long-term injuries, the organization didn't elect to keep Okey around as catching depth. Before getting released, Okey had been playing at Triple-A Louisville, where he slashed .220/.279/.356 across 129 plate appearances.

The Reds designated Okey for assignment Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The depth catcher went 2-for-12 with the Reds in June and doesn't figure to draw much interest on waivers, so chances are he'll remain with Triple-A Louisville.

Okey was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okey has served as Cincinnati's No. 2 catcher over the past few weeks, and he'll head back to the minors after going 2-for-12 with three runs and five strikeouts in seven games. Michael Papierski was recalled in a corresponding move and will operate as the backup catcher until Tyler Stephenson (thumb) returns from the injured list.

Okey had his contract selected by the Reds on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old was called up for his first taste of the majors with Tyler Stephenson heading to the injured list with a fractured thumb. Okey has a .265/.324/.441 slash line in 24 games for Triple-A Louisville this season, and he should serve as the Reds' secondary option at catcher behind Aramis Garcia while Stephenson is sidelined.
