Hannemann was released by the Cubs on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Hannemann spent the season with Triple-A Iowa, posting an uninspiring .248/.333/.453 slash line, good for just an 89 wRC+. He doesn't seem to be a particularly good bet to make a big-league impact any time soon, as he owns a .249/.312/.380 slash line in 240 career Triple-A contests.

The Cubs assigned Hannemann to their minor-league camp Saturday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
After making 11 appearances at the big-league level for Seattle in 2017, Hannemann played exclusively at Iowa in 2018, slashing .238/.297/.340 across 413 plate appearances. That underwhelming production combined with the lack of a 40-man roster spot make it unlikely that Hannemann surfaces for the big club in 2019.

Hannemann was assigned to minor-league camp Tuesday, Carrie Muskat of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hannemann appeared in 16 games this spring, over which he scraped together a bleak .083/.267/.125 line. He'll likely report to Triple-A Iowa when the upcoming season begins. Over 80 games with Iowa in 2017, Hannemann hit .265 with a .728 OPS.

Hannemann cleared waivers Monday and was assigned to Triple-A Iowa.
EDGE Analysis
The Cubs acquired Hannemann off waivers at the latter end of October. Hannemann played 80 games with Iowa during the 2017 campaign. Over said outings he hit .265 with a .728 OPS.

Hannemann was claimed off waivers by the Cubs on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hannemann played 11 big-league games with the Mariners in 2017, going just 3-for-20 with one home run and one RBI during his limited opportunity. The 26-year-old didn't provide much promise with Triple-A Tacoma this past year either, slashing .240/.312/.372 with six home runs and 32 RBI in 112 games, although he did manage to rack up 29 stolen bases on 35 attempts. Moving forward, he will provide a little more outfield depth within the Cubs' organization.

Hannemann joined the Mariners on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
A waiver acquisition from the Cubs, Hannemann reported right away to Seattle for his first major-league opportunity. His .265/.324/.404 line with Triple-A Iowa this season leaves a lot to be desired, but Hannemann can provide versatility in the outfield as well as speed off the bench (29-for-35 on the basepaths this season).

Hannemann was claimed off waivers by the Mariners on Monday, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hannemann was cut loose by the Cubs after slashing a combined .240/.312/.372 in 113 games between Triple-A Iowa and Double-A Tennessee. The 26-year-old will likely report to Triple-A Tacoma, where he'll serve as organizational outfield depth for the Mariners.

Hannemann is sidelined at Double-A Tennessee with a knee injury, MLB.com's Jim Callis reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old outfield prospect has an impressive power/speed combo, but his below-average hit tool will likely prevent him from becoming a big-league regular. He has 186 games under his belt at Double-A, so the fact that he will return to the Southern League when healthy is clearly not a good sign.

Hannemann was added to Chicago's 40-man roster on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Hannemann has averaged 29 steals per season over the last three years, but posted a .247/.326/.426 line with Double-A Tennessee despite being a year older than league average. He could have a place as center field depth capable of pinch-running, but he remains a good distance from contributing in the majors.

Hannemann went 2-for-4 with two stolen bases for Double-A Tennessee on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Last year Hannemann had 17 stolen bases and a 32:113 BB:K for the Smokies, but this year he already has four steals and has improved his BB:K ratio to 10:19. It wouldn't be surprising to see him in Chicago in September as a pinch runner.
