Van Slyke signed a one-year, $320,000 contract Monday with the Doosan Bears of the Korean Baseball Organization, Dan Kurtz of MyKBO.net reports.
EDGE Analysis
The salary exceeds what Van Slyke would have received had he remained with the Marlins on a minor-league deal for the rest of the season, likely making it an easy decision for the 31-year-old to head overseas. Van Slyke has spent the entire 2018 campaign with the Marlins' Triple-A affiliate in New Orleans, slashing .248/.354/.467 across 161 plate appearances. If he's able to make an impact in Korea over the next couple of months, Van Slyke could net a larger deal in the KBO this winter or perhaps generate renewed interest from MLB teams.

Van Slyke signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Saturday, which includes an invitation to spring training, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Van Slyke played in 29 games with the Dodgers last season, but slashed an unimpressive .122/.250/.293 with two home runs and three RBI in 48 at-bats. His numbers at Triple-A Oklahoma City were slightly better, but don't provide much hope that the 31-year-old will see meaningful time at the major-league level.

Van Slyke accepted an outright move to Triple-A Louisville, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being traded to Cincinnati in the deal that sent Tony Cingrani to the Dodgers, Van Slyke will start his career as a Redleg with Triple-A Louisville. In 29 games at the big league level, he went 5-for-41 while mostly serving as a role player off the bench. With Cincinnati, he'll serve as depth in the outfield and doesn't figure to see much playing time if he makes it to the 40-man roster this season.

Van Slyke was designated for assignment by the Reds on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
With the team claiming right-hander Luke Farrell from the Dodgers, Van Slyke loses his place on the 40-man roster while being handed a DFA on Wednesday. The outfielder has played in 29 games at the major-league level this season -- all with the Dodgers -- but has hit just .122/.250/.293 with 15 strikeouts in 41 at-bats.

Van Slyke was traded to the Reds along with Hendrik Clementia for LHP Tony Cingrani, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Van Slyke will report to Triple-A Louisville upon joining the Reds, where he'll serve as organizational outfield depth. The 31-year-old has struggled in 29 games with the Dodgers this season, slashing just .122/.250/.293, but he owns a serviceable .242/.326/.417 career triple-slash over six combined seasons in Los Angeles.

Van Slyke was optioned back to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Van Slyke was sent down just two days after being recalled, with Brandon McCarthy (knee) coming off the DL for his start during Saturday night's affair with the Royals. Throughout the course of the 2017 campaign, Van Slyke has garnered 48 plate appearances at the big-league level, hitting just .122/.250/.293 with two home runs and three RBI. He will continue to serve as organizational depth for the outfield while getting more at-bats in Oklahoma City.

Van Slyke was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, MLB.com's Ken Gurnick reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll take Grant Dayton's roster spot after the left-hander was placed on the disabled with with neck soreness Thursday. Van Slyke has been down at Triple-A for nearly two months, having slashed .233/.346/.361 over 156 at-bats there. He'll add depth to the Los Angeles outfield, but this may not be a long stint for Van Slyke.

Van Slyke was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Van Slyke was the roster casualty with Adrian Gonzalez (back) returning from the disabled list. The 30-year-old collected just one hit after being recalled for the second time this season (1-for-10). He'll remain a depth option at Triple-A should injuries continue to plague the Dodgers.

Van Slyke went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old started what was a rather unlikely Dodgers comeback effort with a 435-foot shot to right center in the fifth, giving them the first run of the night. Just recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on May 10, Van Slyke's stint with the big-league club may not be long, but he should particularly see some time versus southpaws, against which he owns a .360 wOBA and .213 ISO over five-plus major-league seasons.

Van Slyke was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Van Slyke was added to the Dodgers' roster ahead of Wednesday's series finale against the Pirates. While his stay with the big club may not last too long, he should see some time at first base with Adrian Gonzalez (back) and Logan Forsythe (toe) on the DL. Van Slyke slashed just .129/.250/.258 through 31 at-bats with the Dodgers earlier in the season, so he doesn't carry much fantasy value.
