Signs with Atlanta as NRI Atlanta signed Heim to a minor-league contract Tuesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Heim was non-tendered by the Rangers earlier in the offseason after slashing only .213/.271/.332 across 433 plate appearances in 2025. His defensive metrics have also declined the last two years, and those two things have led to the former All-Star having to accept a minor-league contract. Heim does have a good shot to break camp as the backup catcher behind Drake Baldwin while Sean Murphy (hip) recovers.

Let go by Rangers Heim was non-tendered by the Rangers on Friday.

Impact Heim's tenure with the Rangers has seemingly come to an end after spending the last five seasons with the organization. He spent most of the 2025 regular season as the starting catcher, though he did split time behind hope plate with Kyle Higashioka at times. Heim ended the season with a .213/.271/.332 slash line with three steals, 38 runs scored, 11 home runs and 43 RBI over 433 plate appearances. The 30-year-old pro will look to catch on with a team in need of depth at catcher by the start of spring training.
