The Red Sox acquired Sabol from the Giants on Wednesday in exchange for international bonus pool space, Hunter Noll of Beyond the Monster reports.

Sabol had been designated for assignment but will now join a new 40-man roster. The 27-year-old has put up a .705 OPS over 121 games at the big-league level and is capable of playing the outfield in addition to catching. Sabol is likely to begin the 2025 campaign at Triple-A Worcester.

The Mariners acquired Hunt from the Orioles on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.

The 26-year-old had been designated for assignment. It's a homecoming of sorts of Hunt, who began last season in the Mariners organization before being traded to the Orioles. He's likely to begin the 2025 season at Triple-A Tacoma, where he'll represent catching depth.

The Mariners designated Raposo for assignment Tuesday, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.

The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for Miles Mastrobuoni, who was acquired via trade. Raposo was a waiver claim by the Mariners in December and will now go through the waivers process again.

The Orioles designated Hunt for assignment Monday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

The Orioles made the signing of Andrew Kittredge official Monday and needed to free up a spot on their 40-man roster. Hunt, 26, slashed only .179/.219/.278 over 42 games during his time with Triple-A Norfolk last season.

The Giants designated Sabol for assignment Saturday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The move makes room on the Giants' 40-man roster for Justin Verlander, whose one-year, $15 million contract was officially signed Saturday. Sabol spent most of the 2024 regular season with Triple-A Sacramento, where he slashed .246/.340/.388 with 11 stolen bases, 11 home runs and 54 RBI across 403 plate appearances. He appeared in 11 regular-season games with the Giants, going 10-for-32 with five walks, two doubles and one RBI.

The Diamondbacks claimed Pinto off waivers from the Orioles on Friday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Pinto has slashed .231/.263/.404 with 10 homers over 82 games at the big-league level but spent most of 2024 at Triple-A Durham in the Rays organization. He is out of minor-league options, so the Diamondbacks will need to carry him on the Opening Day roster or attempt to pass him through waivers.

Heim and the Rangers agreed to a one-year, $4.6 million contract to avoid arbitration Thursday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Heim is entering his second year of arbitration eligibility and will earn a $1.5 million raise from 2024. He's coming off of a disappointing season, as he slugged only 13 homers with a .602 OPS across 491 plate appearances. Heim is currently projected to split time behind the plate with newly acquired Kyle Higashioka in 2025.

Kirk agreed to a one-year, $4.6 million contract with the Blue Jays on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Kirk will get a $1.8 million raise ahead of the 2025 campaign, which will be his sixth with Toronto. The catcher produced a .253 average with five home runs, 54 RBI and 23 runs scored over 103 games in 2024. Kirk will likely operate as the team's primary catcher again in 2025 with Tyler Heineman set to serve as his primary backup.

Stephenson agreed to a one-year, $4.925 million contract with the Reds on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Stephenson receives a $2.4 million raise in his second year of arbitration eligibility after slashing .258/.338/.444 and setting career highs with 19 homers, 69 runs scored and 66 RBI in 2024. The Reds' offseason acquisition of Jose Trevino shouldn't cut too much into Stephenson's playing time, and the 28-year-old still projects as one of the better offensive backstops in the majors.

The Marlins and Fortes avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Thursday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Fortes, 28, has managed just a .222/.275/.344 batting line over parts of four major-league seasons. He sits atop the Marlins' depth chart at catcher but is not an appealing fantasy option.
