Nottingham was claimed off waivers by the Mariners on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham spent time with the Mariners earlier in the season, and he'll now return to the team after he was designated for assignment by Milwaukee on May 13. Catcher Luis Torrens was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma as part of a corresponding move, and Nottingham should compete for playing time with Tom Murphy going forward.

Nottingham was designated for assignment by the Brewers on Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham returned to the Brewers at the beginning of May while Omar Narvaez and Manny Pina were sidelined, but he'll now be cast off the 40-man roster once again after Narvaez was reinstated from the 10-day IL as part of a corresponding move. The 26-year-old went 3-for-14 with two home runs and four RBI during his most recent stint with Milwaukee.

Nottingham isn't starting Thursday's game against Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

He's shared time with Luke Maile at catcher while Omar Narvaez (hamstring) has been sidelined, but Nottingham will be out of the lineup for a second straight day. Maile will start behind the dish and bat eighth.

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

EDGE Analysis

Since Nottingham was called up from the Brewers' alternate site ahead of Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers, he and Luke Maile have alternated starts behind the plate. Expect the timeshare at catcher to remain in place until the Brewers get Omar Narvaez (hamstring) back from the 10-day injured list.

Nottingham went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Sunday's 16-4 loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham got the Brewers on the board with a solo shot off Dodgers starter Julio Urias in the third inning. In the eighth, Nottingham went yard again with a two-run blast, this time off reliever Mike Kickham. It was a roller-coaster week for Nottingham, who was claimed off waivers by the Mariners on Wednesday and traded back to the Brewers on Sunday. His two homers Sunday represent half of his total long balls from 20 games in 2020.

The Brewers acquired Nottingham from the Mariners on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations.

EDGE Analysis

Seattle previously claimed Nottingham off waivers from Milwaukee on April 28, but he remained on the 40-man roster for only three days before being designated for assignment. He'll end up returning to his old organization less than a week later, as Milwaukee was in dire need of catching depth after its top two options at the position -- Omar Narvaez (hamstring) and Manny Pina (toe) -- were recently placed on the 10-day injured list. Nottingham will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers.

Nottingham was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham was claimed off waivers from the Brewers on Wednesday, but he'll now be cast off the 40-man roster to make room for right-hander Wyatt Mills. Nottingham hasn't appeared in any games this year but hit .188 with four home runs and 13 RBI in 20 games with the Brewers in 2020.

The Mariners claimed Nottingham off waivers from the Brewers on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old backstop will move on to his fourth different organization after stints with the Astros, Athletics and Brewers. All 38 of his MLB games came with Milwaukee from 2018 through 2020, with Nottingham providing a .203/.306/.432 slash line in 85 career plate appearances. Nottingham isn't believed to have any minor-league options remaining, so the Mariners will have to carry him on their 26-man active roster as a third catcher behind Luis Torrens and Tom Murphy.

Nottingham (thumb) was reinstated from the injured list Thursday and designated for assignment.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham underwent thumb surgery in December and didn't have enough time to push for a spot on the Opening Day roster even after making his spring debut in mid-March. Now fully healthy, the Brewers simply don't have room for him, as he's behind both Omar Narvaez and Manny Pina on the depth chart. Nottingham never projected as much more than a backup as a prospect, due mainly to his below-average defense, but his career 97 wRC+ in a small sample of 85 major-league plate appearances could be enough for another team to claim him off waivers.

The Brewers placed Nottingham (thumb) on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Nottingham was one of four Milwaukee players placed on the IL as the Brewers pared down their active roster to 26 men in advance of Opening Day. The 25-year-old didn't see any action behind the plate this spring while recovering from left thumb surgery, but he was cleared to catch bullpen sessions before the end of camp. He doesn't appear likely to miss significant time to begin the season.
