The Seattle Mariners acquired utility player Miles Mastrobuoni from the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday for cash considerations.
In a corresponding move, the Mariners designated career minor league catcher Nick Raposo for assignment, keeping the 40-man roster full.
Mastrobuoni, 29, batted .194 with four RBIs in 98 at-bats over 50 games with the Cubs last season. He hit .241 in 60 games with Chicago in 2023 after eight games for the Tampa Bay Rays as a rookie in 2022, yielding a .219 career average with one homer and nine RBIs in 247 at-bats.
The Rays selected him in the 14th round of the 2016 MLB Draft. He has appeared in MLB games at third base, second base, shortstop, left field and right field, plus once as a relief pitcher.
Raposo, 26, played last season for the St. Louis Cardinals’ and Toronto Blue Jays’ Triple-A affiliates in Memphis and Buffalo. He batted a combined .206 with eight home runs and 33 RBIs in 78 games. The Mariners claimed him off waivers from the Blue Jays on Dec. 19.
