  • Pirates' Nick Solak: One hit in Pirates debut

    Solak went 1-for-3 against the Phillies on Friday.

    Solak made his first big-league appearance since 2022 and singled to left field in his first at-bat. He started at first base, but Spencer Horwitz (wrist) is expected back at some point during the team's weekend series. However, Solak is also capable of playing nearly every defensive position, so he could settle into a utility role if he sticks in the majors.

  • Pirates' Nick Solak: Promoted, playing first base Friday

    The Pirates selected Solak's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis, and he will start at first base and bat sixth against the Phillies on Friday.

    Solak has spent the entire season in Triple-A after signing a minor-league deal with the Pirates in December. He has dominated at the plate in the minors, slashing .389/.449/.619 with four stolen bases, six home runs and 20 RBI over 127 plate appearances. With Spencer Horwitz (wrist) and Enmanuel Valdez (shoulder) both on the injured list, Solak will start at first base Friday and make his first major-league appearance since 2022 as a member of the Rangers.

  • Pirates' Nick Solak: Nets MiLB deal from Pittsburgh

    The Pirates signed Solak to a minor-league contract Dec. 6.

    Solak, who turns 30 in January, slashed .311/.406/.446 with nine home runs and 10 stolen bases over 90 games at Triple-A Tacoma in the Mariners organization in 2024. He has a career .252/.327/.372 batting line in parts of five major-league seasons.

  • Mariners' Nick Solak: Invited to Mariners' camp

    Solak signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Tuesday and received an invitation to major-league spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Solak spent all of last season in Triple-A, slashing .238/.353/.362 across 411 plate appearances between three different franchises. He'll have an opportunity to crack Seattle's Opening Day roster as a bench piece, but the 29-year-old outfielder is likely once again headed to Triple-A in 2024.

  • Tigers' Nick Solak: Sent to Triple-A

    Solak cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

    Detroit designated Solak for assignment on Friday, but he'll remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 28-year-old hasn't seen action in the big leagues this year and has a .709 OPS at the Triple-A level.

  • Tigers' Nick Solak: Designated for assignment

    Solak was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Friday.

    This move frees up a 40-man roster spot for lefty reliever Andrew Vasquez, who was claimed off waivers from the Phillies. Solak appeared in only one major-league game during his two-month stay in the Tigers organization and was slashing .179/.328/.283 through 131 plate appearances with Triple-A Toledo.

  • Tigers' Nick Solak: Sent back to Triple-A

    Solak was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

    Solak was claimed off waivers last Friday and recalled Saturday but didn't receive a plate appearance. He's clearing out to make room for the return of Matt Vierling from the injured list.

  • Tigers' Nick Solak: Called up by Tigers

    Solak was recalled by the Tigers on Saturday.

    Solak was optioned by the Tigers on Friday after being claimed off waivers from Atlanta, but he didn't have to wait long before getting a chance with the big-league club. He joins the active roster with Akil Baddoo (quadriceps) hitting the injured list, though it's likely Kerry Carpenter will be the biggest beneficiary of Baddoo's absence.

  • Tigers' Nick Solak: On move to Detroit

    Solak was claimed off waivers by the Tigers on Friday and optioned to Triple-A Toledo.

    Solak was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Tuesday and he'll now join his fourth organization of the year, having also passed through the hands of the Mariners and White Sox. The 28-year-old produced a .272 batting average with six homers, 28 RBI, 23 runs and two stolen bases over 151 at-bats in 38 games with Triple-A Gwinnett and will look to impress with Toledo in an attempt to get back to the big leagues. In order to make room on the 40-man roster, Detroit transferred Spencer Turnbull (neck) to the 60-day injured list.

  • Braves' Nick Solak: Designated for assignment

    Solak was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Tuesday.

    Solak drew only one major-league plate appearance during his seven-week stay on the 40-man roster. The 28-year-old has slashed .246/.317/.354 in 221 big-league games since the beginning of the 2020 season and could now be moving on to what would be his fifth different organization this year.

  • Braves' Nick Solak: Optioned to Triple-A

    Solak was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett by Atlanta on Friday.

    Solak was up only for a few days and didn't receive a plate appearance. He'll head back to Gwinnett and wait for another call.

  • Braves' Nick Solak: Summoned from Triple-A

    Atlanta recalled Solak from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

    Solak has bounced around to a few different organizations since the offseason, most recently landing with Atlanta last week via waivers. He'll give the club another utility option while Eli White is likely away from the team for the next three games while on the paternity list.

  • Braves' Nick Solak: Lands in Atlanta

    Atlanta claimed Solak off waivers from the White Sox on Tuesday and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett.

    Solak will now join his fourth organization in less than two months after his brief stint with the White Sox was preceded by stops with the Reds and Mariners. The 28-year-old showed promise during his first taste of MLB action back in 2019, but he's posted a rough .246/.317/.354 batting line in 839 big-league plate appearances since the beginning of the 2020 campaign.

  • White Sox's Nick Solak: Designated for assignment

    Solak was designated for assignment by the White Sox on Sunday.

    It's been a roller coaster of movement for Solak in 2023. He was claimed off waivers from the Mariners by the White Sox on Friday just a few weeks after Seattle traded for the outfielder from the Reds. If Solak goes unclaimed, he could report back to Charlotte.

  • White Sox's Nick Solak: Claimed by ChiSox

    Solak was claimed off waivers by the White Sox on Friday and optioned to Triple-A Charlotte.

    After being traded from Cincinnati to Seattle and then later DFA'd by the Mariners, Solak now joins his third organization in the last month. The 28-year-old outfielder will serve as organizational depth at the Triple-A level, where he currently holds a .371 OPS over 17 plate appearances.

  • Mariners' Nick Solak: Loses 40-man spot

    Seattle designated Solak for assignment Monday.

    Acquired from the Reds shortly before Opening Day, Solak has now been DFA'd for the second time in less than a month. Solak has gone 1-for-13 through his first four games at Triple-A Tacoma and will remain with the affiliate if he isn't claimed off waivers.

  • Reds' Nick Solak: Booted off 40-man roster

    The Reds designated Solak for assignment Thursday.

    Solak was a casualty of a series of roster moves ahead of the team's Opening Day game Thursday against the Pirates. The 28-year-old former top prospect has slashed just .246/.317/.354 in 839 major-league plate appearances since the beginning of the 2020 season.

  • Mariners' Nick Solak: Traded to Seattle

    Solak was acquired by the Mariners in a trade with the Reds on Friday for cash considerations, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    He'll report to Triple-A Tacoma. Solak was designated for assignment Thursday, and he finds a new home a day later. The 28-year-old showed promise with the bat early in his career, but he's struggled to the tun of a .246/.317/.354 slash in 839 plate appearances since 2020. He provides Seattle with some depth as a player who can play both in the infield and outfield.

  • Reds' Nick Solak: Reassigned to minor-league camp

    Solak was reassigned to minor-league spring training Saturday.

    Solak was acquired for cash considerations in November, but any hopes of him duplicating Brandon Drury's success from last season seems to have gone out the window with this move. Solak's career .252/.327/.372 slash line isn't good but is far from terrible, so if he does get a run of games for the Reds at some point, he could have fantasy value in at least deeper leagues. The fact that the Reds -- who don't exactly possess a roster packed with proven talent -- took him out of Opening Day consideration with nearly three weeks to go suggests his stock is quite low right now.

  • Reds' Nick Solak: In lineup Sunday

    Solak (foot) is starting in left field and batting seventh in Sunday's spring game against the Giants, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

    Solak ended last season on the injured list with a fractured right foot but is good to go early in spring training. The 28-year-old was acquired by the Reds from the Rangers in November and will compete for a utility role in camp.
