Dylan Moore - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Back in lineup Sunday Moore (foot) will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Yankees.

Impact Moore was removed from an exhibition game Wednesday due to a bruised foot, but after coming off the bench and playing three innings at first base in Friday's 4-4 tie with the Tigers and now returning to the lineup Sunday, his availability for the start of the season is no longer in question. The 33-year-old had been attending spring training as a non-roster invitee but has already secured his spot on the Opening Day squad after the Phillies signed him to a one-year contract earlier Sunday.

Signs MLB deal with Phillies Moore (foot) signed a major-league contract with the Phillies on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Moore triggered an opt-out clause in his minor-league deal with the Phillies on Thursday, which gave the club 48 hours to add him to their 40-man roster before he entered free agency. Now that the two sides have agreed to a major-league deal, Moore will remain in the organization and is expected to be part of Philadelphia's Opening Day bench. The 33-year-old utility man has posted a .566 OPS with six RBI, four runs scored and two steals through 38 plate appearances in spring training.

Triggers opt-out clause Moore (foot) exercised the opt-out clause in his minor-league contract Thursday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Phillies will have 48 hours to add Moore to their 40-man roster or he'll become a free agent Saturday. Moore was removed from Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against Atlanta with a bruised foot, but manager Rob Thomson downplayed the injury after the contest. The 33-year-old Moore has slashed .172/.265/.207 with one extra-base hit, four RBI, four runs scored, two stolen bases and a 3:8 BB:K across 34 plate appearances this spring. He's competing for a utility job.

Managing foot injury Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Moore was lifted from Wednesday's 3-2 loss to Atlanta in the top of the fifth inning due to a bruised foot, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Impact Thomson downplayed any concern about the injury, noting that Moore was removed from the game mostly as a precaution shortly after fouling a ball off his foot. The 33-year-old signed a minor-league deal with the Phillies over the winter and is in the mix for a utility spot on the Opening Day roster.

Signs with Phillies as NRI Moore signed a minor-league contract with the Phillies on Friday and was invited to spring training, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Moore finished the 2025 campaign with just a .642 OPS across 243 plate appearances, though he went 7-for-27 (.259) with two homers, six RBI, six runs scored and two steals after signing with the Rangers for the final month of the regular season. He'll now attempt to win a spot on Philadelphia's Opening Day roster, and his extreme defensive versatility should help his chances.

Hits first homer with new team Moore went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Athletics.

Impact Moore didn't start Saturday, but he came in off the bench as a pinch hitter. His blast came in his second at-bat, as he took Osvaldo Bido deep in the ninth inning. Moore is an option to provide coverage all around an ailing infield -- the Rangers are missing Marcus Semien (foot), Corey Seager (appendectomy) and Jake Burger (wrist) among their usual starters. Moore will likely get most of his starts versus left-handed pitchers, but his defensive versatility will make him a frequent late-game replacement. Between Texas and Seattle, he has a .199/.267/.378 slash line with 10 homers, 22 RBI, 30 runs scored and 12 stolen bases over 217 plate appearances.

Starts at first base Moore started at first base and went 1-for-2 with an RBI in Friday's 5-2 win over the Athletics.

Impact The injury-riddled Rangers are getting back with unexpected names in the infield. Moore, whose contract was selected Friday, filled in for the injured Jake Burger (wrist). There are other options for Moore to get into the lineup, with two middle-infield starters -- shortstop Corey Seager (appendectomy) and Marcus Semien (foot) -- currently on the shelf.

Officially promoted The Rangers selected Moore's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

Impact With Corey Seager (abdomen) expected to miss the vast majority, if not the remainder of the regular season, Moore will come up from the minors to round out the Rangers' infield depth. Josh Smith is expected to take over as Texas' primary shortstop going forward; however, Moore's ability to play virtually every position could allow him to play on a somewhat consistent basis.

Joining big club The Rangers are expected to select Moore's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Impact The Rangers are going to be without Corey Seager (appendectomy) for an extended period of time, so the team will turn to Moore to provide additional infield depth. Although he owns just a .622 OPS through 213 plate appearances from his time with the Mariners, Moore could be in line for regular playing time with the Rangers, and his extreme defensive versatility will only help his chances of sticking in the lineup.

Nets MiLB pact from Rangers The Rangers signed Moore to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Impact Moore was released by the Mariners on Sunday and has latched on with a fellow American League West foe. The 33-year-old has slashed just .193/.263/.359 with a 35.7 percent strikeout rate over 213 plate appearances this season, but his versatility is attractive in a reserve role. The Rangers could give Moore another chance in the majors sooner rather than later.

Reaches open market The Mariners granted Moore his unconditional release Sunday.

Impact After Moore went unclaimed off waivers upon being designated for assignment Saturday, the Mariners decided to eat the money remaining on his $3.91 million salary for 2025, allowing the 33-year-old utility player to test free agency. Moore produced a lowly .193/.263/.359 slash line over 213 plate appearances for Seattle this season, but his speed (12 steals in 16 attempts) and defensive versatility could entice another team to bring him aboard as a bench bat.
