Senzel signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Friday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel began the season in the Mexican League, where he went 13-for-22 with three homers and 10 RBI across six games. Now back in affiliated ball, the 29-year-old utility man will presumably begin his tenure at Triple-A Oklahoma City, though he could earn a spot on the Dodgers' bench if his hot hitting continues.

The Tecolotes De Los Dos Laredos of the Mexican League signed Senzel on Tuesday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel slashed only .195/.283/.331 over 74 games last season between the Nationals and White Sox and has just a .232/.299/.363 career batting line across parts of six major-league seasons. The former top prospect is still just 29 but hasn't shown the ability to be both healthy and productive in the big leagues for an extended stretch.

Senzel elected free agency Wednesday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel cleared waivers after being removed from the White Sox's 40-man roster earlier this week and has opted to hit the open market rather than accepting an outright assignment. The 29-year-old has slashed only .195/.283/.331 over 74 games this season between the Nationals and White Sox.

The White Sox designated Senzel for assignment Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel signed with the White Sox in mid-July after being released by the Nationals, but he went just 3-for-30 in 10 games for Chicago and had been playing sparingly of late. The 29-year-old will likely clear waivers just as he did last month.

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

EDGE Analysis

Senzel looked as though he might move into a more prominent role for the White Sox in the aftermath of last Tuesday's trade deadline, but he's started in only four of the ensuing eight games since the deadline. Though Paul DeJong is now out of the White Sox's infield mix, the club has prioritized Lenyn Sosa over Senzel for the open spot in the infield. Senzel hasn't helped his case for earning playing time by going 3-for-27 with seven strikeouts since signing with the White Sox over the All-Star break.

Senzel is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

After signing with the White Sox over the All-Star break, Senzel has now hit the bench for two of the team's first four games of the second half, with both of his absences coming against right-handed pitching. Senzel has gone hitless in his first seven at-bats with Chicago and looks like he could be a lesser priority than Brooks Baldwin, Paul DeJong and Nicky Lopez in the infield.

Senzel is not in the starting lineup against the Royals on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel will head to the bench after he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's 7-1 loss. Paul DeJong will slide over to third base while Nicky Lopez enters the lineup at shortstop and bats seventh versus Kansas City.

Senzel is in line to serve as the White Sox's primary second baseman for the second half of the season, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Senzel hasn't played second base at all in 2024 and has just 16 games (seven starts) under his belt at the position in the majors. However, the keystone is reportedly where the White Sox intend to use him most days after signing him to a one-year contract following his release from the Nationals. Senzel's positional situation should ultimately be fluid, and he's not guaranteed regular playing time if he doesn't perform.

Senzel agreed to a contract with the White Sox on Tuesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per James Fegan of SoxMachine.com, the agreement is for a major-league contract. Senzel spent most of the first half of the campaign with Washington, slashing .209/.359/.662 with seven home runs, 18 RBI, 25 runs and one stolen base before he was designated for assignment July 6. He played exclusively at third base with the Nationals but had previously spent the majority of his big-league time in the outfield.

The Nationals requested unconditional release waivers Friday on Senzel.

EDGE Analysis

The move hardly comes as a surprise after Washington designated Senzel for assignment last weekend. The 29-year-old posted a .209/.303/.359 slash line in 64 games with the Nationals and will now look to latch on elsewhere for the second half, though he may need to settle for a minor-league contract.
