The Seattle Mariners signed veteran infielder Donovan Solano to a one-year contract on Monday.
According to a published report, Solano will make $3.5 million this season. The top-flight utility player can play all four infield spots as well as left field.
The Mariners will be the seventh team to employ Solano, who batted .286 with a career-high eight homers to go with 35 RBIs in 96 games with the San Diego Padres in 2024.
Solano, 37, has a .279 career average with 40 homers and 279 RBIs in 916 games with the Miami Marlins (2012-15), New York Yankees (2016), San Francisco Giants (2019-21), Cincinnati Reds (2022), Minnesota Twins (2023) and Padres.
Seattle designated left-hander Austin Kitchen for assignment in a corresponding move.
The 27-year-old went 0-1 with a 14.14 ERA in four games (one start) with the Marlins last season. Miami designated Kitchen for assignment on Sept. 7 and the Mariners claimed him off waivers two days later.
