The Dodgers claimed Siani off waivers from Atlanta on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Siani has gone from the Cardinals to Atlanta and now to the Dodgers via waivers this offseason. The speedy outfielder is a terrific defensive center fielder but has slashed just .221/.277/.270 at the big-league level and spent most of the 2025 season in the minors. Siani has minor-league options remaining, and if he's still in the Dodgers organization on Opening Day, it will likely be at Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Atlanta designated Siani for assignment Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Siani will end up as the odd man out of Atlanta's 40-man roster following the signing of Mike Yastrzemski on Wednesday. Siani slashed .209/.307/.329 with eight homers, 41 RBI, 64 runs scored and 28 stolen bases over 430 plate appearances with the Cardinals' Triple-A affiliate this past season.

Atlanta claimed Siani off waivers from the Cardinals on Thursday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
EDGE Analysis
Siani, who turns 27 in July, appeared in just 19 games for the Cardinals in 2025 after logging 334 plate appearances for the team in 2024. The defense-first outfielder will head to Atlanta with hopes of securing a larger role. Siani slashed .209/.307/.329 with eight home runs and 28 stolen bases for the Cardinals' Triple-A affiliate.

The Cardinals optioned Siani to Triple-A Memphis on Saturday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Jordan Walker (wrist) returning from the injured list Saturday, Siani will end up as the odd man out of a spot on the Cardinals' bench. The 25-year-old outfielder has gone 4-for-17 while appearing in 19 MLB games this season and owns a .799 OPS across 133 plate appearances in Triple-A.

The Cardinals recalled Siani from Triple-A Memphis on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Siani began the season on the Opening Day roster but was sent down in late April after playing sparingly. Victor Scott has struggled offensively since early May, but it still seems unlikely that Siani will be much of a threat to Scott's playing time.

The Cardinals optioned Siani to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
He played sparingly behind starting center fielder Victor Scott, accruing only 17 plate appearances thus far. Siani will play more regularly at Memphis as he waits for another opportunity with the big club.

Siani went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in Friday's loss to the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Siani was making just his fourth start of the season, although he has appeared in a total of 15 games because he often enters as a pinch runner and/or defensive replacement. It came down to the wire between Siani and Victor Scott for the Cardinals' center field job out of spring training, but Scott won it and has been an everyday player, starting 18 of 20 games. Siani could get optioned to Triple-A Memphis when Masyn Winn (back) returns from the 10-day injured list Tuesday if the club wants added protection at shortstop with Thomas Saggese.

Victor Scott will be St. Louis' Opening Day center fielder, pushing Siani to a bench role, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Siani and Scott competed for the starting role in center field this spring, and Scott pulled away with outstanding numbers during the exhibition slate while Siani has posted an ugly .334 OPS over 47 plate appearances. Siani will still make the Opening Day roster, but he's slated to work as the Cardinals' fourth outfielder. Both Scott and Siani are left-handed batters, so if Scott performs well, he could be in the lineup nearly every day against both righties and lefties.

Siani (illness) is starting in center field and batting leadoff in Friday's split-squad game against the Mets, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The outfielder has been battling an illness this week but is ready to return to spring action Friday. Siani is competing with Victor Scott for the starting job in center field, and both players will get a start at the position in separate split-squad games. Siani has gone 4-for-40 through 13 appearances in spring training, while Scott has torn the cover off the ball with a 1.133 OPS.

The Cardinals scratched Siani from the lineup for Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals due to an illness, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Victor Scott -- who looks to be Siani's main competition for primary duties in center field to begin the season -- will shift over from left field to replace Siani. Assuming he can quickly shake off the illness, Siani will have a few more opportunities this spring to stake his claim to a near-everyday role. The 25-year-old Siani drew high marks for his defense last season, but aside from going 20-for-23 in stolen-base attempts, his fantasy profile was relatively hollow. Siani hit just .228 with two home runs, 42 runs and 20 RBI over his 334 plate appearances, most of which came at the bottom of the lineup.
