Yankees Claim Michael Siani Off Waivers From Dodgers
The New York Yankees claimed outfielder Michael Siani off waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday, according to the Yankees PR department. To make room on the 40-man roster, the Yankees designated right-hander Kaleb Ort for assignment. Siani, 26, only appeared in 19 games at the big-league level in 2025 with the St. Louis Cardinals, going 4-for-17 (.235) with four runs, two walks, and seven strikeouts. He's not much to look at as a hitter, as he's slashed .221/.277/.270 with a .547 OPS, two home runs, 20 RBI, 48 runs scored, and 21 stolen bases in 160 MLB games since debuting in 2022 with the Cincinnati Reds. The Yankees will take a flier on the glove-first Siani for outfield depth, and he'll be battling for a spot on the Opening Day roster in spring training. Speed and defense are what stand out about Siani.
