"A one-time top-100 prospect who was initially drafted by the Astros, he was involved in the 2015 Scott Kazmir swap between the Astros and A's before being flipped to the Brewers in the Khris Davis deal ahead of the 2016 season. Nottingham lost his prospect shine during his time in Milwaukee and served mostly as an up-and-down catcher for the Brewers from the time of his MLB debut in 2018 until 2021."
"Then 26 years old, Nottingham ended the 2021 season with a career .184/.277/.421 slash line across 130 plate appearances in 54 MLB games, which remains his career slash line in the big leagues to this day. Since being outrighted off the Mariners' roster in 2021, he's bounced between the Mariners', Giants' and Nationals' minor league systems."
"In 293 career minor league games, Nottingham owns a .235/.321/.415 slash line line that's generally solid by the standards of a catcher. Those numbers are somewhat inflated by years spent in the Pacific Coast League, however, and Nottingham's 2025 campaign left much to be desired."
Jacob Nottingham, a 30-year-old catcher, has re-signed with the Mariners on a minor league contract. Once a top-100 prospect drafted by the Astros, Nottingham has had a journeyman career spanning four MLB seasons since 2018. He maintains a career .184/.277/.421 slash line across 130 plate appearances. Since being outrighted in 2021, he has bounced between multiple minor league systems and played in the independent Mexican League. In 2024, Nottingham appeared in just 17 games for Tacoma, posting a .193/.277/.298 slash line, suggesting limited prospects for significant playing time.
