Marlins' Austin Slater: Batting leadoff in opener
Slater will start in right field and bat leadoff in Friday's opener versus the Rockies.
Slater was just signed earlier this week and will immediately be thrown into the leadoff spot as the Marlins take on lefty Kyle Freeland. Slater will serve in a short-side platoon role for Miami.

Marlins' Austin Slater: Reaches deal with Marlins
Slater agreed to a one-year, major-league contract with the Marlins on Tuesday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Slater parted ways with the Tigers over the weekend after posting an .856 OPS in 15 spring training games. The 33-year-old will provide the Marlins with some veteran outfield depth in the wake of Kyle Stowers' (hamstring) and Esteury Ruiz's (oblique) injuries. Slater has excelled against left-handed pitching throughout his nine-year MLB career, so he'll likely step into a short-side platoon role.

Austin Slater: Released by Detroit
The Tigers granted Slater his release Saturday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
As a non-roster invitee, Slater had the right to request his release if he wasn't added to the roster by Saturday. His chances of being included on the Opening Day squad seemed slim despite him posting an .856 OPS in 36 Grapefruit League plate appearances, so he will now explore his options on the open market.

Tigers' Austin Slater: Hits first spring home run
Slater went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Orioles.
Slater connected in the third inning for his first home run of the spring slate. The 33-year-old joined the Tigers earlier this month on a minor-league contract with a chance to compete for an Opening Day roster spot during camp. Slater had an OPS under .650 each of the last two seasons with a batting average under .220, so he doesn't figure to offer a ton of offense. However, he is a versatile defender who could carve out a utility role in Detroit if he strings together more good performances in spring training.

Tigers' Austin Slater: Joins Detroit on MiLB deal
Slater agreed to a minor-league contract with the Tigers on Tuesday that includes an invite to big-league spring training, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
Slater split the 2025 campaign between the White Sox and Yankees, and he posted a .216/.270/.372 slash line with five homers in 160 plate appearances during the regular season. The 33-year-old best fits as a short-side platoon player in the outfield, and he could carve out that role in a Detroit outfield that's heavy on left-handed bats.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Back from injured list
The Yankees activated Slater (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Slater strained his left hamstring shortly after being acquired at the trade deadline but is ready to roll following a brief rehab assignment. He will see some playing time against left-handed pitching.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Kicking off rehab assignment
Slater (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.
Slater landed on the 10-day injured list nearly four weeks ago with a strained left hamstring but is ready to test things out in game action again. He shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before being reinstated to the Yankees' active roster. When he does return, Slater will see some reps against left-handed pitching.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Taking steps toward return
Slater (hamstring) has resumed some baseball activities and on-field drills, per MLB.com.
Slater injured his hamstring while running to first base on a groundout Aug. 4 and was tabbed with a 4-to-6 week timeline to return. He's approaching the early end of that timeframe, but it doesn't appear that he'll be ready to be activated right at the four-week mark. It remains feasible, however, for Slater to be activated before the midway point of September.

Yankees' Austin Slater: To miss 4-6 weeks
Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Slater (hamstring) will miss 4-to-6 weeks, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Slater suffered a strained hamstring Monday against the Rangers and was put on the injured list Tuesday. It's now known he'll miss at least one month due to the injury. The trade deadline acquisition had played in just three games for New York, going 0-for-7 with four strikeouts.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Moves to injured list
The Yankees placed Slater on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a left hamstring strain.
Slater suffered the injury during Monday's game against the Rangers, which was just his third appearance with the Yankees after being acquired from the Reds last week. New York reinstated Aaron Judge (elbow) from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Headed for IL
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said after Monday's 8-5 loss to the Rangers that Slater (hamstring) will require a stint on the injured list, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
Slater made his second start as a member of the Yankees on Monday and went 0-for-1 before he was lifted from the contest in the second inning due to left hamstring tightness. A timetable for Slater's return has yet to be established, but the Yankees quickly concluded that the veteran outfielder would be out for at least the next week and a half. New York is set to get star slugger Aaron Judge (elbow) back from the IL on Tuesday, so Slater is expected to be deactivated in a corresponding move.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Dealing with hamstring issue
Slater (undisclosed) exited Monday's contest versus Texas as a result of left hamstring tightness, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.
Slater appears to have torqued his left hamstring while busting it down the line on a ground ball in the first inning. Depending on the severity of the injury, the outfielder could be forced to miss some action moving forward, and potentially even be placed on the injured list.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Exits early Monday
Slater (undisclosed) exited Monday's contest against the Rangers in the top of the first inning, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.
Slater was making his first start with the Yankees after being traded to the team July 30, but his day was cut short after grounding into a fielder's choice in the top of the first. The outfieler appeared to have come up lame after running down the baseline, and more information on his status will likely come in the near future. In the meantime, Jasson Dominguez replaced him in left field versus Texas.

Yankees' Austin Slater: Dealt to Yankees
The Yankees acquired Slater from the White Sox on Wednesday in exchange for right-hander Gage Ziehl, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Slater has slashed .261/.338/.522 this season against left-handed pitching, so he will give the Yankees an option at all three outfield position versus southpaws. He is making $1.75 million in 2025 and is an impending free agent.

White Sox's Austin Slater: Breaks through with solo shot
Slater went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-5 loss against the Guardians.
Slater opened the scoring in the fourth inning with a 387-foot solo home run off Joey Cantillo, his fourth on the year, and followed it up with an RBI single an inning later but it wasn't enough to lift the Sox to a win. After a hopeful late-June stretch, the 32-year-old had not been impressive at the plate recently, batting just 7-for-34 (.206) with seven strikeouts over his previous 12 games entering Sunday.

White Sox's Austin Slater: Two XBH against Kershaw
Slater went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, a triple and an additional run scored during Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers.
Slater tripled in his first at-bat against Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday and then tagged the future Hall of Famer for a go-ahead, two-run home run in the third inning. The long ball was Slater's third of the campaign (93 plate appearances), officially surpassing his 2024 total of two homers in 212 plate appearances. In his last 10 games, Slater has gone 9-for-30 (.300) with seven runs scored and a 3:6 BB:K.

White Sox's Austin Slater: Sitting after three straight starts
Slater is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Slater started each of the White Sox's last three games while the team went up against right-handed pitching, as Mike Tauchman tends to a groin injury. Though he went 4-for-10 with a double, two walks, three runs and one RBI in those contests, Slater still looks as though he'll be limited to a short-side platoon role when the outfield is fully healthy. Michael Taylor will get the nod in right field Sunday over Slater.
