Kirby Lee / USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
First baseman Efren Navarro signed a minor league deal with the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday, Jeff Fletcher of the OC Register reports.
Analysis:
The 29-year-old was DFA'd by the Orioles last week and officially cleared waivers over the weekend. After appearing in 54 games for the Angels last season, Navarro is likely destined to begin the year in Triple-A, a level at which he found success within the Angels' organization in 2015, hitting .329 with 29 RBI in 72 games.
