Royber Salinas: Everything you need to know

Atlanta reassigned Salinas (shoulder) to minor league camp Tuesday. Salinas has continued to recover from shoulder surgery and is not expected to return until August. The 23-year-old played the bulk of his 2024 campaign for Double-A Midland, where he recorded a 3.68 ERA across 36.2 in his eight starts. He was only able to makes two appearances in Triple-A Las Vegas before hitting the injured-list in June. In November, Atlanta acquired the right-hander off waivers from the Athletics. Salinas will likely need a load of Triple-A starts when he comes back from injury to be considered for a promotion.

Atlanta re-signed Salinas (shoulder) to a minor-league contract Tuesday. Salinas has been claimed off waivers, non-tendered and now re-signed by Atlanta on a minor-league pact this month. The 23-year-old right-hander is recovering from shoulder surgery and is expected to miss at least the first half of the 2025 season.

Atlanta non-tendered Salinas (shoulder) on Friday. Salinas was claimed off waivers from the Athletics on Nov. 1, but his tenure with Atlanta will now come to an end after roughly three weeks. The 23-year-old logged a 3.68 ERA and 1.55 WHIP with Double-A Midland last season, though he is expected to miss the first half of the 2025 campaign after undergoing shoulder surgery in late July.
