Earlier this month, the Yankees released Seth Brown from their organization.
He had been on a Minor League deal (and did not appear in an MLB game for New York).
SWB RailRiders wrote (on June 16): “The Yankees have made the following roster moves affecting SWB: • C Miguel Palma transferred to Somerset • C Payton Henry activated from the 7-Day Injured List • INF Seth Brown released from Minor League contract by NY on 6/15″
• C Miguel Palma transferred to Somerset • C Payton Henry activated from the 7-Day Injured List • INF Seth Brown released from Minor League contract by NY on 6/15
It’s worth pointing out that Brown remains unsigned as of June 29.
He had been batting .235 with 43 hits, nine home runs and 23 RBIs in 53 Triple-A games.
Looking At Brown

Brown was picked in the 19th round of the 2015 MLB Draft.
He has spent all seven seasons of his MLB career with the Athletics.
The 33-year-old hit 25 home runs with 73 RBIs during the 2022 season.

There is no question that Brown could be an intriguing addition to another organization on a Minor League deal (for hitting depth).
It will be interesting to see if another team adds him before the end of the 2026 season.
Brown most recently appeared in 38 MLB games during the 2025 season.

The Yankees have had a very strong season, but they are struggling as of late.
Right now, they are the second-place team in the American League East with a 48-35 record in 83 games (1.0 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays).
Following the Red Sox, the Yankees are now headed home to open up a series with the Detroit Tigers on Monday night in the Bronx.
