Souza agreed to a minor-league deal with the Mariners on Sunday that includes an invitation to big-league spring training, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

He will earn $1 million if he makes the big-league club, per Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Souza, 32, has always struggled to stay healthy, and he hasn't been close to league average as a hitter since 2017, when he had a career year with the Rays. He has a 43.3 K% in 67 plate appearances over the past two seasons.

Souza was added to the roster for Wednesday's NL Wild Card Game against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Souza was designated for assignment in mid-September, but he'll likely be available in a depth role during Wednesday's postseason contest. The 32-year-old appeared in 17 major-league games during the regular season and slashed .152/.222/.333 with a home run, three RBI and two runs.

Souza was designated for assignment Monday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Souza had been with the team since Tuesday but didn't make the most of his brief opportunity, going 1-for-8 with four strikeouts. As a 32-year-old with a .150/.239/.333 slash line in limited action over the last three seasons, he's unlikely to generate much excitement on the waiver wire. The move clears space for Clayton Kershaw to return from his forearm injury.

Souza's contract was selected from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. He is starting in right field and batting seventh.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old outfielder was hitting .247/.387/.507 with nine home runs and four steals in 46 games at Triple-A. He hit .160 with 10 strikeouts in 13 games in the majors earlier this season. Zach McKinstry was optioned in a corresponding move.

The Dodgers re-signed Souza to a minor-league contract Sunday, Blake Harris of True Blue LA reports.

EDGE Analysis

Souza was released by the Dodgers last Friday and subsequently opted for free agency, but he's now back with the organization's Triple-A team. In 13 games with the big club this season, Souza has slashed .160/.250/.360 a home run, two RBI and two runs across 28 plate appearances.

The Dodgers released Souza on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Souza went 4-for-28 with 10 strikeouts across 13 games with the Dodgers earlier this season before he was dropped from the 40-man roster July 6. After going unclaimed off waivers, Souza reported to Triple-A Oklahoma City and stuck around with the affiliate for about a week before being granted his release. The veteran outfielder will look to land a minor-league contract with another organization.

Souza was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Tuesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran outfielder signed a minor-league deal with Los Angeles right before Opening Day and later made his way back to the big leagues June 16. He was never able to get anything going at the plate, recording just four hits and two walks across 28 plate appearances. Souza will be placed on waivers for the time being, where he could draw interest from clubs looking to add outfield depth. Jake Reed was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding roster move.

Souza went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 3-0 win over Arizona.

EDGE Analysis

Souza played 72 games with the Diamondbacks in 2018, clubbing five homers and driving in 29 runs. He's struggled to find his footing in the league since, but the Dodgers gave him another chance in the big leagues after he put up a strong showing with their Triple-A club earlier this season. The 32-year-old came through with the big hit in Friday's win, belting a solo shot to left field in the eighth inning to break a scoreless tie and send Los Angeles on to victory. Souza has gone 2-for-6 in two games with the Dodgers thus far.

Souza's contract was selected by the Dodgers on Wednesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Souza was released by the Astros in late March but began the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City. He appeared in 22 minor-league games and slashed .279/.444/.603 with six home runs, 17 runs and 16 RBI. He should fill a depth role in the outfield after right-hander Nate Jones was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Souza signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Wednesday, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Souza was released by Houston on March 24 but will land a minor-league agreement one day before the start of the regular season. The Dodgers have plenty of talent in the outfield, but Souza could serve as depth at some point in 2021. The 31-year-old has appeared in 83 major-league games with the Diamondbacks and Cubs across the past two seasons and slashed .213/.304/.366 with six home runs, 34 RBI and seven stolen bases.
