Suarez became a free agent after opting out of his contract Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

Suarez had an $8 million player option in 2026 and 2027, but he will forgo those and enter the free-agent market. The 34-year-old led the National League with 40 saves in 2025 and boasts a 2.87 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 134:32 K:BB over 134.2 regular-season innings since the start of the 2024 campaign. Suarez should have no trouble landing a sizeable contract this offseason to serve as a closer.

The Rays designated Wilcox for assignment Monday.

Wilcox made his major-league debut this season with the Rays, getting roughed up for seven runs (three earned) over one inning in his lone appearance. The 26-year-old will go through the waivers process and could remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed.

The Rays designated Gerber for assignment Monday.

The Rays are doing some 40-man roster housecleaning and Gerber has lost his spot. The righty reliever made two appearances for Tampa Bay in 2025, allowing one run with a 4:0 K:BB over 4.1 innings.

The Rays designated Boushley for assignment Monday.

Boushley was a waiver claim of the Rays in September but never made an appearance for them. He's been outrighted previously, so Boushley will have the ability to elect free agency if he passes through waivers.

The Rays designated Acton for assignment Monday.

Acton made one scoreless appearance for the Rays in 2025 but spent virtually all of his time at Triple-A Durham, where he held a 3.68 ERA and 71:27 K:BB over 58.2 frames. The 27-year-old is no longer on the 40-man roster but could stick around in the organization if he passes through waivers.

Hoffman blew a save against the Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series on Saturday, allowing one run on one hit while striking out two batters over 1.1 innings.

Hoffman entered in the eighth frame with the Blue Jays up 4-3. He got Tommy Edman to ground out to preserve the lead and then struck out the first batter he faced in the ninth, but Hoffman then served up a game-tying solo homer to Miguel Rojas. Over three World Series appearances, that long ball was the only run Hoffman yielded across 4.1 frames.

Gilbreath cleared waivers Friday and elected free agency, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Gilbreath spent the vast majority of his time this season pitching in Triple-A, turning in a 7.59 ERA and 1.80 WHIP across 42.2 innings at Albuquerque. Between his poor minor-league performance and the fact that he's pitched just two innings in the big leagues over the past two seasons, the 29-year-old southpaw will almost certainly have to settle for a minor-league contract during the offseason.

The Pirates claimed Darnell (hip) off waivers from the Rockies on Friday and placed him on the 60-day injured list, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Darnell posted a 3.86 ERA and 1.46 WHIP in the majors this year across 11.2 innings, though his season was cut short in late August by a torn labrum in his left hip. Now in the Pirates organization, the 28-year-old righty will be entering a more pitcher-friendly environment compared to Colorado. However, he'll still likely be limited to middle-relief duties in Pittsburgh.

The Orioles re-signed Garcia to a one-year contract Thursday.

Garcia pitched for three different teams during the 2025 season but finished out the year strongly with the Orioles, collecting a 2.84 ERA and 20:6 K:BB over 19 innings. The right-hander will turn 32 in January and should fill a middle-relief role in Baltimore next season.

Ogasawara cleared waivers Wednesday and was sent outright to Triple-A Rochester.

Ogasawara struggled during his first season stateside, posting a 6.98 ERA and 1.55 WHIP alongside a 30:17 K:BB through 38.2 innings. He'll now lose his place on the 40-man roster heading into the offseason, though he may have a chance to reclaim his spot with a strong showing in spring training.
