The 34-year-old had just signed a minor league deal with the Orioles in early August, but he requested his release from the team on Sunday and had it granted. It’s unclear if he’ll attempt to latch on elsewhere or if this might be the end of the line for Segura.

The 34-year-old infielder hasn’t played since slashing a miserable .219/.277/.279 with three homers, 21 RBI and a 47/22 K/BB ratio over 326 plate appearances with the Marlins during the 2023 campaign. It’s a nice low-risk flier for the Orioles though to see if he has anything left in the tank.

Segura, whose listed playing weight is 220 pounds, is at 215 now after checking in at 235 in August. We take this to mean that the 33-year-old Segura isn’t hanging up the spikes just yet. He had a miserable four months in Miami before having his contract passed on to Cleveland, but his exit velocity and strikeout numbers weren’t much different than usual.

Ever seen that GIF of Grandpa Simpson going in and out of a door after putting his hat on the hat rack? Well, that’s basically Segura here, though he didn’t even have enough time to get a Guardians hat. Segura signed a two-year, $17 million deal with the Marlins this offseason, but he’s disappointed with a .219/.277/.279 batting line over 325 plate appearances. Now he’ll head back into free agency and can sign with a team at the major league minimum.
