Impact The 27-year-old was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Tuesday and will now rejoin the Giants, with whom he played in seven games earlier this season. Kennedy isn't likely to see much playing time in San Francisco, though his outlook would improve if Luis Arraez is dealt before Monday's trade deadline.

Headed to Seattle Kennedy was traded from the Giants to the Mariners in return for cash Sunday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Kennedy was designated for assignment by San Francisco earlier in the day, and he will now join the Mariners organization. The 27-year-old went 0-for-7 with a walk and three strikeouts over seven contests with the Giants in early June. Kennedy has posted a far more impressive .321 average with eight home runs, 33 RBI, 40 runs scored and five stolen bases over 184 at-bats across 48 contests with Triple-A Sacramento, and he'll likely report to Triple-A Tacoma with his new squad.

Designated for assignment The Giants designated Kennedy for assignment Sunday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Kennedy has his contract selected by the Giants in early June, but he barely saw the field with eight plate appearances in seven games. The 27-year-old could head to Triple-A Sacramento if he passes through waivers unclaimed, though he'll also have the right to elect free agency.

Contract selected Monday The Giants selected Kennedy's contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Kennedy has had a dynamite season with Sacramento, slashing .321/.424/.543 with eight home runs, five steals and a 27:27 BB:K over 48 games. The 27-year-old is likely slated for a reserve infielder role in San Francisco.
JUNE 1 • ROTOWIRE
Sent out to MiLB camp The Giants reassigned Kennedy to minor-league camp Wednesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Kennedy had been attending big-league camp as a non-roster invitee and ultimately fell short in his fight for a utility role with the Giants. The 27-year-old is expected to report to Triple-A Sacramento to begin the season. Kennedy saw 13 games of big-league action in 2025, slashing .069/.156/.103 across stops with the Phillies, Dodgers and Blue Jays.

Inks minors deal with Giants The Giants signed Kennedy to a minor-league contract Dec. 15.
Impact Kennedy spent a little time in the majors with three different teams in 2025, going just 2-for-29 at the plate. The 27-year-old will likely begin the 2026 season at Triple-A Sacramento, where he'll give the Giants some experienced infield depth.
