LaMarre will make the Twins' Opening Day roster, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

LaMarre was able to beat out Zach Granite for a reserve outfielder spot, in part thanks to his .475 batting average and 1.275 OPS in 40 spring training at-bats. The potential remains for the Twins to make a waiver claim so the 29-year-old's spot may not be fully assured, but at this point Granite has been informed he made the Opening Day roster.

LaMarre will travel to Washington with the Twins for an exhibition game Tuesday and could make the final 25-man roster, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

LaMarre is batting Zach Granite for a reserve outfielder spot, though both could lose out if the Twins sign a veteran waived by another team. LaMarre is hitting .475 with two home runs this spring and would give the outfield a much-needed right-handed bat (while Granite his left-handed).

LaMarre (groin) has appeared in Grapefruit League games for the Twins each of the past four days, going 4-for-7 with a home run and three RBI over that span.

EDGE Analysis

LaMarre battled some groin tightness about a week ago, but it sidelined him for only a few days before he returned to action. The fact that the Twins have shown no qualms about using him in back-to-back days suggests the groin issue isn't a concern. Attending Twins camp as a non-roster invitee, LaMarre faces long odds to earn a spot with the big club and will most likely serve as outfield depth at Triple-A Rochester if he elects to remain with the organization once spring training concludes.

LaMarre emerged from Wednesday's spring game with a tight groin, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what caused the issue or how severe it is. More information should emerge in the next few days as team doctors are able to examine him further. Consider him day-to-day for the time being.

LaMarre agreed to a minor-league contract with Minnesota on Thursday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

LaMarre spent the majority of the 2017 season with the A's after being traded from the Angels to Oakland in April. He's appeared in just 30 major-league games over his eight-year professional career, and failed to record a hit during eight plate appearances this past season. With the Twins, it's likely that he will start out the 2018 campaign in the minors while providing depth for the organization.

The Athletics released LaMarre on Wednesday, Joe Stiglich of NBC Sports California reports.

EDGE Analysis

After dropping LaMarre from their 40-man roster Saturday, the Athletics either had no interest in reserving a spot for the outfielder at Triple-A, or LaMarre decided to elect free agency and pursue an opportunity elsewhere. The 28-year-old has showcased good wheels throughout his minor-league career, but doesn't provide enough impact with the bat to profile as an everyday player if he were to resurface in the majors.

LaMarre was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Saturday, John Hickey of the East Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

LaMarre was ousted from the 40-man roster to clear room for Michael Brady, who had his contract purchased earlier Saturday. The 28-year-old has spent time in the majors each of the past three seasons, though he is just 2-for-37 (.054) over that period. He should serve as organizational outfield depth wherever he winds up.

LaMarre was optioned back to Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The A's needed to clear a spot on the roster for Sonny Gray's (back) return from the disabled list, and LaMarre was the roster casualty. After being acquired from the Angels last week, the 28-year-old went 0-for-7 in three appearances with the Athletics before being sent back to Nashville. He'll continue to provide outfield depth for Oakland in the minors.

LaMarre was recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

With Rajai Davis landing on the disabled list, the A's needed to add depth to the outfield. LaMarre was just traded to the club on Sunday, but will already have a shot to be on Oakland's major-league roster. Prior to being traded, LaMarre was hitting .268/.375/.341 at Triple-A Salt Lake.

LaMarre was traded to the Athletics on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The Angels will receive a player to be named later or cash considerations from the Athletics. LaMarre has spent the majority of his eight-year career in the minor leagues and began this season with Triple-A Salt Lake, where he slashed .268/.375/.360 over 48 plate appearances. He'll join Triple-A Nashville within the Athletics' organization.
