Wisdom re-signed Jan. 5 with the Cubs on a minor-league contract, Chris Hilburn-Trenkle of Baseball America reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom initially joined Chicago on a minor-league deal in late August and ended up appearing in two games for the big club during the final week of the regular season. The 29-year-old didn't impress enough to maintain his spot on the 40-man roster entering the offseason, but he'll get the chance to battle for a bench role on the Cubs' Opening Day roster during spring training. He'll likely be assigned to Triple-A Iowa to begin the 2021 season if he comes up short in his bid for a job with the big club.

The Cubs outrighted Wisdom to their alternate training site Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom went unclaimed off waivers after being designated for assignment last weekend, so he'll stick around in the Cubs' organization for now. Assuming Wisdom joins the Cubs for spring training, he'll realistically be competing for a roster spot at Triple-A Iowa rather than with the big club.

Wisdom was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Sunday, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Cubs added their top pitching prospect, Brailyn Marquez, to the big-league squad and Wisdom was the roster casualty. Wisdom ended up spending just a couple days with Chicago, logging a pair of at-bats. He was previously DFA'd by the Mariners in August.

Wisdom's contract was selected by the Cubs on Friday, Gordon Wittenmyer of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom will give the Cubs an extra bench bat for the final series of the season, though there's little reason to believe he'll be a particularly strong one. The 29-year-old has made just 86 career major-league plate appearances, posting a .224/.306/.408 slash line. Jose Martinez was optioned in a corresponding move.

Wisdom signed a minor-league deal with the Cubs on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old was granted his release from the Mariners last week after being designated for assignment, and he'll now join the Cubs' 60-player pool. Wisdom had four hits in 28 at-bats for the Rangers last year and is unlikely to be a significant contributor in the majors for Chicago.

Wisdom was placed on unconditional release waivers by the Mariners on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom was designated for assignment by Seattle on Monday after failing to appear in any games with the Mariners. The 28-year-old will now be free to search for a new team, but it's unclear whether he'll find a spot on another major-league roster during the 2020 season.

Wisdom was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom began the season at the Mariners' alternate training site, but he'll lose his spot on the 40-man roster to make room for right-hander Brady Lail, who was claimed off waivers by Seattle on Monday. Wisdom has been effective in the minors but carries a .224/.306/.408 slash line with four home runs, 11 RBI and 34 strikeouts over 41 major-league games with the Cardinals and Rangers.

Wisdom was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Friday, Lauren Smith of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old joined the Mariners on a one-year deal in November but struggled prior to the suspension of spring training, going 3-for-22 in 13 games. Wisdom had an .882 OPS over 58 plate appearances with the Cardinals in 2018, but he struggled in nine big-league contests with the Rangers last season and went 4-for-26 with 15 strikeouts.

Wisdom's chances of securing a utility spot on the Opening Day roster appear low due to multiple factors, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom arrived in Seattle on a one-year contract in late November and has been competing for a utility role, but his poor performance in Cactus League games and the versatility of some of the other candidates for the role leave him in an uphill battle whenever spring training resumes. Wisdom was hitting just .136 (3-for-22) over 13 games when play was suspended, and while he's capable of filling in at both corner infield spots, the likes of Jose Marmolejos, Tim Lopes and Dylan Moore (foreram) are all capable of also playing in the outfield in addition to their filling in at multiple infield spots.

Wisdom signed a one-year contract with the Mariners on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Wisdom struggled in his nine major-league games last season, but he found some success with Triple-A Nashville, hitting .240/.332/.513 with 31 home runs and 74 RBI. The 28-year-old could find some playing time at first base in 2020, but he'll have to improve on his limited major-league production before becoming a viable fantasy asset in most formats.
