Leaves with apparent injury Bauer left Saturday's game against the White Sox with an apparent injury, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

Added to MLB roster The Yankees signed Bauers to a major-league contract and selected him to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game in Texas.

Impact Bauers had been on the taxi squad as Aaron Judge (hip) insurance, and this move could signal that Judge is headed to the injured list. The 27-year-old has split time between left field, first base, designated hitter and right field at Triple-A while slashing .304/.448/.797 with nine home runs and five steals in 21 games. Bauers also has more walks (18) than strikeouts (16). He is a career .213/.307/.348 hitter in 328 MLB games.

Receiving promotion Bauers will be called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre by the Yankees prior to Friday's game versus the Rangers, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Impact Bauers has earned the promotion by batting .319/.460/.812 with nine home runs over his first 21 games with SWB. He hasn't appeared in the majors since 2021 and has just a career .655 OPS at the big-league level, but Bauers could get a good amount of run in left field with the Yankees seeking more production at the position.

Cast off 40-man roster The Mariners outrighted Bauers to Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

Impact After being acquired from Cleveland on June 10, Bauers proceeded to hit .220 with two home runs and six stolen bases across 182 at-bats with the Mariners. The lack of power from a corner-outfield bat made it tough for the Mariners to justify keeping Bauers on the 40-man roster heading into the offseason, and none of baseball's other 29 organizations were willing to dedicate a spot to the 26-year-old either when he was available on waivers. Bauers should still get the chance to compete for a bench role with the Mariners in spring training, assuming he doesn't elect free agency.

Homers in win Bauers went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Royals.

Impact Bauers absolutely clobbered a first-pitch fastball from Jackson Kowar that sailed 460 feet to right field to extend the Mariners' lead to 5-0 in the third. The long ball was his first hit since Sept. 5. He had been hitless in his previous 16 at-bats. His recent struggles are in line with his overall production on the season, as he's slashing .216/.294/.286 with four homers, 19 RBI, 25 runs scored, six steals and 29:73 BB:K over 303 plate appearances.

Delivers in extras Sunday Bauers entered Sunday's extra-innings win over the Diamondbacks as a pinch hitter in the top of the 11th and laced a two-run double while also subsequently scoring a run.

Impact Bauers was called on to hit for pitcher Yohan Ramirez in the 11th and the Mariners already holding a 7-3 lead, and his clutch two-bagger plated Tom Murphy and Abraham Toro to give Seattle even more breathing room. Bauers' playing time remains relatively sparse, but he's now reached safely in five of the last seven games he's appeared in.

On base thrice in win Bauers went 2-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs in an extra-innings win over the Rangers on Thursday.

Impact The outfielder made plenty of noise out of the penultimate spot in the order, mustering his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 1. Despite the solid output Thursday, it's worth noting Bauers sat for each of the previous six games, so a lack of consistent playing time is one factor that continues to cap his overall fantasy value.

Swipes second bag of season Bauers went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in a win over the Yankees on Sunday.

Impact Bauers remains mired in an 0-for-11 slump that encompasses his last five games, but he was at least able to do something productive with his one appearance on the basepaths Sunday. The 25-year-old's starting assignment in right field was his first since Tuesday, and he's likely to continue drawing only semi-regular playing time against right-handed starters.
