Yankees claim former top prospect Marco Luciano off waivers

The New York Yankees have claimed infielder/outfielder Marco Luciano, 24, off waivers from the Orioles. Once considered the Giants' shortstop of the future and a top prospect, Luciano spent all of 2025 in Triple-A Sacramento, batting .214 with 21 doubles, 23 home runs, and 66 RBI, but did not play in the majors. He previously appeared in 41 MLB games with the Giants (2023-24), hitting .217. This marks his third waiver claim this offseason, following stints with the Pirates and Orioles. He is seen as a reclamation project, likely providing infield depth.
