Kolten Wong News
The Arizona Diamondbacks have signed second baseman Kolten Wong to a minor-league deal and have assigned him to Triple-A Reno. Wong has inked a minors deal this offseason with the Orioles but failed to crack the Opening Day roster and once again hit the open market. Following a pair of production seasons at the plate with the Brewers, Wong's bat cratered in a brief stint with the Mariners in 2023, hitting just .183 with four homers, three stolen bases, and a .519 OPS across 87 games in the Pacific Northwest. The D-backs have Ketel Marte as their everyday second baseman but fellow infielder Geraldo Perdomo recently underwent knee surgery and will miss about a month's worth of action.
The Baltimore Orioles have signed veteran infielder Kolten Wong to a minor-league deal that includes an invite to big-league spring training. The 33-year-old has several productive seasons on his resume but suffered a disastrous 2023 campaign. Wong hit just .183 with four home runs, three stolen bases, and a .519 OPS across 87 games split between the Mariners and Dodgers. He hit .165 with a .468 OPS across 67 games with the Mariners before being released and he rebounded to a .300 average and an .853 OPS across 34 plate appearances with the Dodgers. He joins a crowded, youthful, and talented infield in Baltimore as he might be able to provide some veteran insurance behind baseball's No. 1 prospect in Jackson Holliday at the keystone.
Second baseman Kolten Wong was released by the Seattle Mariners on Friday. The 32-year-old has struggled this season, batting just .165 in 67 games in Seattle. There's a good chance he'll find a new team relatively soon. However, Wong isn't expected to offer much value to fantasy managers. On the other hand, he's still worth monitoring, considering he's had some productive seasons through the years.

Second baseman Kolten Wong finds himself with his third MLB team in the Seattle Mariners in 2023 after he was acquired from the Milwaukee Brewers in the offseason. He's expected to replace Adam Frazier as Seattle's starting second baseman after hitting .251/.339/.430 with a .770 OPS, career-high 15 home runs, 47 RBI, 65 runs scored and 17 stolen bases in 134 games. The 32-year-old veteran had a much better second half at the plate, but his struggles against left-handed pitching were a problem and could leave him vulnerable to platoon duties in Seattle if he continues to struggle against them. Wong should continue to be a decent source of power and speed at the position in deep mixed and AL-only leagues, but he's unlikely to have a career year in his 11th MLB season with the move to Seattle, especially if he begins to run less. On top of it, Wong's defense slipped in his final season in Milwaukee.
