The Mariners reassigned Nottingham to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Though he was given the chance to compete for a backup catcher job with Seattle in spring training, Nottingham never had strong odds of breaking camp with the big club so long as Cal Raleigh and Mitch Garver stayed healthy heading into Opening Day. Nottingham hasn't seen big-league action since 2021 and is likely to serve as organizational depth at Triple-A Tacoma throughout the upcoming season.

The Mariners signed Nottingham to a minor-league contract Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham was in Seattle's camp on a minor-league deal, and he was always a longshot to make the Opening Day roster. He played the entire 2022 season at Triple-A Norfolk in the Orioles' organization and is likely to serve as minor-league depth for a club again in 2023.
