MLB Trade Rumors

The Guardians and infielder Andrés Giménez are finalizing a seven-year, $106.5M extension. It comes with a $4M signing bonus and has a $23M option for 2030 with a $2.5M buyout. There are also escalators that can take the value of that option to $24M. The Guardians previously had control over Giménez for the next four years, meaning that this deal buys out three free-agent years and potentially a fourth with the option. Giménez is a client of Rep 1 Baseball.

The Nationals are signing utility man Chad Pinder to a minor league deal, reports Robert Murray of FanSided. Pinder, who turns 31 on Wednesday, had been in camp with the Reds on a minor league deal until recently. However, as an Article XX(B) free agent, he had the ability to opt-out of that deal this past weekend and return to free agency. But the Reds released him on Friday, allowing him to get an early start on that return to the open market, which has already resulted in a new deal.

Outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. and infielder Matt Duffy have been informed that they’ll be on the Kansas City Royals’ Opening Day roster, tweets Anne Rogers of MLB.com. Both were in camp as non-roster invitees, so they’ll need to be added to the 40-man roster. Designated hitter/outfielder Franmil Reyes, also in camp on an NRI, is “likely” to make the roster, Rogers continues, adding that outfielder Edward Olivares and utilityman Nate Eaton are both going to be on the Opening Day squad as well. Olivares and Eaton are already on the 40-man roster. The New York Post’s Jon Heyman first indicated over the weekend that Bradley was expected to make the roster.
