Senzel, 29, is a six-year MLB veteran who most recently played with the Washington Nationals and Chicago White Sox in 2024.

Across 74 games with the two teams last year, the right-hander slashed .195/.283/.331 with seven home runs, 18 RBIs, and an OPS of .614.

This year, Senzel was playing in Mexico, where he appeared in six games, slashing .591/.654/1.136 with an OPS of 1.790.

Senzel is a former first-round pick by the Cincinnati Reds in 2016. He debuted in 2019 and spent the first five years of his career with Cincinnati. Across those five seasons, he hit .239 with 33 home runs, 135 RBIs, and an OPS of .671 in 377 games.

Senzel is a utility man who has mainly played in center field and at third base in his career. He also has experience at second base and in both corner outfield spots.

Senzel will presumably report to Triple-A Oklahoma City, where he’ll work toward an MLB call up.
