The Seattle Mariners claimed outfielder Leody Taveras off waivers from the American League West rival Texas Rangers on Tuesday.

Badly needing depth for their beleaguered outfield, the Mariners on Tuesday claimed veteran Leody Taveras off waivers from the Rangers, a familiar face within the division over the past five-plus seasons and fixture from Texas’ 2023 World Series title team.

Evan Carter has been recalled by the Texas Rangers from Triple-A Round Rock. The outfielder had been there all this season after being hurt most of last year following his impressive debut late in the run to their only World Series title in 2023.
