Nottingham was placed on the 7-day minor-league injured list earlier this week with an undisclosed injury.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham hasn't played for Norfolk since April 22. The catcher has been solid with a .333/.448/.708 slash line at Triple-A after narrowly missing out on a major-league roster spot in spring training.

Nottingham won't be included on the Orioles' Opening Day roster after he was reassigned to minor-league camp Wednesday, Zachary Silver of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony Bemboom won the backup catcher job. Nottingham will remain with the Orioles' organization for now -- he should be expected to report to Triple-A Norfolk. Since he's played in just 44 major-league games over the last three seasons, Nottingham shouldn't be on the fantasy radar.

Nottingham signed a minor-league contract with the Orioles on Wednesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham appeared in 15 major-league games with the Brewers and Mariners last year and hit .150 with three home runs, six RBI and five runs. Given his big-league experience and the lack of Baltimore's depth at catcher, it wouldn't be surprising to see him serve as a non-roster invitee this spring.

Nottingham was released by the Mariners on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham appeared in 15 games between the Brewers and Mariners earlier this season, and he went 6-for-40 with three homers and six RBI. He was recently activated from the injured list at Triple-A Tacoma after missing the past three months with an undisclosed injury, and he's now headed for free agency.

Nottingham was outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham's strange pattern of bouncing between the Brewers and Mariners will be put on pause for now. He'll remain in Seattle's organization and wait for the next time the team needs an extra catcher.

Nottingham was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Tuesday, Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham has now been designated for assignment four times by two organizations this year. He was dropped by the Brewers in late April and claimed by the Mariners, only to be DFA'd again and traded back to Milwaukee at the start of May. He lasted less than two weeks before yet another DFA in mid-May, with the Mariners yet again claiming him. Nottingham then lasted less than three weeks in his second stint with Seattle before this latest transaction. If the pattern were to continue, he'd be grabbed by the Brewers again shortly and return to Seattle sometime in mid-July, but the Brewers have two healthy catchers this time around, so they may not need him, meaning he's likely to head to Triple-A Tacoma. Dillon Thomas was called up in a corresponding move.

Nottingham went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, additional run, walk and strikeout as Seattle beat Texas 5-0 on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham went back-to-back with fellow catcher Tom Murphy in the third to get Seattle on the board and later scored after a seventh inning walk. Since being re-acquired from Milwaukee, Nottingham has seen near regular playing time at first base which is likely to remain if performances like this continue.

Nottingham is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham will sit for the second straight game while Eric Campbell picks up another start in the corner infield. The Mariners may prefer to keep the hotter bat among the two players in the lineup until the team gets one of its two banged-up regulars (Evan White and Dylan Moore) back from the injured list.

Nottingham is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham found himself in the lineup in each of the previous four games since being claimed off waivers by Seattle on May 20. However, after recording just one hit while playing first base across those four tilts, the 26-year-old will sit against lefty Cole Irvin on Tuesday.

Nottingham will start at first base and bat seventh Sunday against the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham has primarily played catcher throughout his professional career, but the Mariners have used him exclusively at first base since claiming him off waivers from Milwaukee on Thursday. He'll draw his third straight start at the position Sunday, and Nottingham could end up serving as the primary first baseman until Seattle gets at least one of Evan White (hip), Ty France (wrist) or Dylan Moore (calf) back from the 10-day injured list.
