Wall signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Friday, Tommy Birch of the Des Moines Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wall opted out of his minor-league contract with the Padres on Saturday, and he'll now attempt to carve out a role for himself in the Cubs organization. The 29-year-old owns a .298/.384/.429 slash line with 39 RBI, 51 runs scored and 21 steals through 69 games in the minors this season, and he could get the call to Chicago if the Cubs' outfield depth is tested down the stretch. Otherwise, he'll remain an organizational depth piece at Triple-A Iowa.

Wall opted out of his minor-league contract with the Padres on Saturday, Kiley McDaniel of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wall slashed .298/.384/.429 with four home runs, 39 RBI and 21 stolen bases over 69 games with Triple-A El Paso, but that wasn't enough to get him a look with the big-league club. He's thus elected to become a free agent and pursue an opportunity elsewhere. Over 31 career major-league regular-season games between Atlanta and Miami, Wall has slashed .311/.380/.422 with a home run, three RBI and nine steals in 13 attempts.

The Orioles designated Wall for assignment Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wall has now been DFA'd by three organizations this season, with Atlanta and Miami having already moved him off their 40-man rosters. If the 28-year-old goes unclaimed off waivers this time around, he'll likely stick around with Baltimore and continue playing regularly at Triple-A Norfolk. He's put together a .285/.382/.406 slash line along with six home runs and 16 stolen bases across three different Triple-A affiliates in 2024.
