Mariners' Jesse Hahn: Inks minors deal with Seattle
Rotowire
Hahn signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Wednesday.
Hahn posted a 4.54 ERA and 1.53 WHIP across 41.2 innings with the Dodgers' Triple-A affiliate before being released Thursday. The 35-year-old righty will now give the Mariners some extra organizational depth down the stretch, though he likely won't see any action in the big leagues.

Rotowire
Hahn signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Hahn has not pitched professionally since 2021 and ended that season with shoulder problems. He is presumably healthy now and the Dodgers will see if the 34-year-old has anything left. Hahn has posted a 4.22 ERA over 82 appearances (50 starts) across parts of seven major-league seasons.

Royals' Jesse Hahn: Running out of time for return
Rotowire
The Royals remain hopeful that Hahn (shoulder) will be ready to resume live pitching before the end of the season, even though he remains limited to throwing off a mound in significantly controlled settings, MLB.com reports.
Even if Hahn advances to facing hitters before season's end, the Royals don't seem to have much optimism that he'll actually be ready to return from the 60-day injured list to pitch in games. The Royals initially placed Hahn on the IL on April 12 with right shoulder impingement syndrome, and though he resumed a rehab assignment a month later, he made only two appearances in the minors before being shut down when he experienced a setback.

Hahn made five relief appearances to begin the season and posted a 13.50 ERA and 2.70 WHIP in 3.1 innings.

Royals' Jesse Hahn: Nearing return
Rotowire
Hahn (shoulder) is very close to returning to the Royals, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Hahn has made two appearances in his rehab asssignment at Triple-A Omaha, pitching 1.2 scoreless innings with two strikeouts. The righty may not pitch in high-leverage situations immediately upon returning, considering his early-season struggles in such spots, but he still figures to have a significant role in the Royals' bullpen.
Hahn (shoulder) will report to Triple-A Omaha for a rehab assignment Thursday.
The right-hander has been sidelined since mid-April with a right shoulder impingement, so it's not much of a surprise he'll head to the minors for some reps before being activated from the injured list. Hahn had a tough start to the season with five runs given up over 3.1 innings through five appearances.
Hahn (shoulder) is throwing his second bullpen Friday and will throw live his next time out, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
The reliever last appeared in a game on April 11 before being placed on the injured list the next day. Hahn's early-season struggles, highlighted by a 13.50 ERA and four walks in just 3.1 innings, may have been attributable to the shoulder issue, as he pitched fine while logging one save in his first three appearances before unraveling in his next two.

This presumably happened Monday or Tuesday. Hahn's recovery will proceed incrementally, per Lewis, so it sounds like he's still multiple weeks away from returning.
