Rob Brantly - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Inks minor-league deal with NYY The Yankees signed Brantly to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Conor Foley of YES Network reports.

Impact Brantly spent portions of the 2021 and 2022 seasons in the Yankees organization, and he'll return to the team a week after being waived by the Marlins. The catcher will report to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. In 41 plate appearances for Triple-A Jacksonville, Brantly slashed .359/.390/.590 with six doubles and a homer.

Cut by Miami The Marlins released Brantly on Monday.

Impact Brantly appeared in three games for the Marlins in April before landing on the injured list due to a strained right lat and then knee inflammation before he was designated for assignment July 14 once he was activated. The veteran backstop accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Jacksonville after clearing waivers, but he'll end up being cut loose despite slashing .359/.390/.590 over 41 plate appearances with Miami's top affiliate. Now a free agent, Brantly could land a minor-league deal with an organization that's short on catching depth.

Sent outright to Triple-A The Marlins outrighted Brantly to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

Impact He's no longer on the 40-man roster, but Brantly will remain in the organization as catching depth. The 35-year-old went 3-for-7 at the plate earlier this season for Miami before missing nearly three months with a right lat strain and later a knee issue.

Activated, DFA'd by Marlins Brantly (lat/knee) was activated from the 60-day injured list and then designated for assignment Monday.

Impact Brantly was placed on the 15-day injured list April 21 due to a right lat strain, and he was later transferred to the 60-day IL to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. He'll head to waivers following Monday's transaction and would presumably report to Triple-A Jacksonville if he doesn't receive any interest.

Cleared to resume rehab assignment Brantly (lat/knee) was cleared to resume his rehab assignment at Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Impact Brantly didn't end up playing Sunday after Jacksonville's game against Charlotte was rained out, but the veteran catcher seems to be healthy again after left knee inflammation caused him to be pulled off his previous assignment with the Triple-A club about three weeks ago. The 35-year-old was initially placed on the injured list April 21 due to a right lat strain, though that injury no longer appears to be much of a concern. Once he completes his rehab assignment, Brantly could be activated from the 60-day IL and designated for assignment, as the Marlins are already carrying three catchers (Agustin Ramirez, Nick Fortes and Liam Hicks) on the 26-man active roster and wouldn't appear to have room for him.
