"Toronto claimed Lawrence off waivers from Seattle back in April, only to release him after making just one relief appearance - spanning 2.2 innings on Apr. 29 - with the club. Shortly afterwards, the veteran hurler was reacquired by the Mariners, who put him through a transaction spin cycle through the remainder of the season, granting his release and ultimately re-signing him multiple times."
"The 29-year-old infielder split last season between the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago White Sox, combining for a miserable .125/.157/.177 slash line with one home run and six RBIs across 47 games. It was a major letdown from his scorching-hot spring training results, which included six round-trippers, 14 RBIs, a .292/.358/.729 slash line and 166 wRC+ (100 league average) in 19 exhibition contests."
Casey Lawrence agreed to a minor-league contract to return to the Seattle Mariners for 2026. The 38-year-old split the 2025 campaign between the Blue Jays and Mariners after a waiver claim and release, making six major-league appearances with a 4.08 ERA, 4.15 FIP, seven strikeouts and one walk across 17.2 innings. Vinny Capra signed a minor-league deal with the Boston Red Sox, returning to the American League East. The 29-year-old infielder hit .125/.157/.177 with one home run and six RBIs across 47 games in 2025 after a dominant spring training, and was a 20th-round pick by Toronto in 2018.
