4 years agoDetroit Tigers utility player Niko Goodrum (calf) will be placed on the 10-day injured list after being scratched from Saturday's lineup due to left calf tightness, according to Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press. It's unclear just how long Goodrum will be out, but in the meantime, the Tigers are calling up outfielder Victor Reyes to replace him on the roster. Goodrum had missed time at the end of June due to a finger injury, but overall this season he's been a solid deep-league play, as he's slashing .220/.296/.341 with six homers, 12 steals, 18 RBI and 28 runs scored over 63 games. Between Goodrum being out and Nomar Mazara being designated for assignment this week, Reyes will likely get a decent amount of playing time in the outfield while Goodrum is on the shelf.--Michael

1 year agoThe Minnesota Twins have signed utility player Niko Goodrum to a minor-league deal. The signing is of the full-circle variety as the Twins drafted Goodrum in the second round of the 2010 draft while he debuted in the big leagues with the club for 11 games in the 2017 season. However, the bulk of Goodrum's big-league time has come with the Tigers as he impressed with a .245 average alongside 16 home runs and 12 stolen bases in 131 games in the 2018 season. However, his bat would tail off over the next four big league seasons. He went overseas to play for Lotte of the KBO in 2023 and while he hit a quality .295, he interestingly did not hit a home run or steal a base across 50 games played. He could crack the Twins as a super utility option or give them versatile depth at Triple-A.--Brenton Kemp

2 years agoThe Lotte Giants of the Korean Baseball Organization signed free-agent infielder Niko Goodrum to a $400,000 deal on Tuesday. Goodrum will be replacing Zach Reks, who has been out with a knee injury since mid-May. The 31-year-old Goodrum has played in 402 major-league games with the Minnesota Twins, Detroit Tigers and Houston Astros since 2017. He had his best year in 2018 with the Tigers, putting up 16 home runs, 53 RBI and 12 stolen bases. The switch-hitter didn't play at all in the majors in 2023 and hit just .116 (5-for-43) with no homers, one RBI, two doubles and a steal in 15 games for the Astros in 2022. Goodrum was hitting .280/.448/.440 with eight homers, 36 RBI and seven steals in 65 games for Triple-A Worcester, a minor-league affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, this year. He's played every position except pitcher and catcher.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 years agoInfielder/outfielder Niko Goodrum and the Boston Red Sox have reportedly agreed to a minor-league contract, per a tweet from FanSided's Robert Murray on Wednesday morning. The veteran hit .116 with a .156 on-base percentage and a stolen base in 45 plate appearances for the Houston Astros last season. He logged a .311 average and a .500 on-base percentage to go along with a pair of home runs and stolen bases in 62 plate appearances for Houston's Triple-A affiliate during the 2022 campaign.--Ben Rosener - RotoBaller

3 years agoFormer Houston Astros infielder Niko Goodrum has been released. The 30-year-old was designated for assignment earlier this week and went unclaimed on waivers. The former Detroit Tiger inked a one-year deal worth $2.1 million with Houston back in March but didn't make an impact with his new club. He logged just 43 at-bats and put together a horrible .116/.156/.163 triple-slash line. A career .226 hitter, time could be running out for Goodrum. With that said, he still could provide organizational depth for a new club down the stretch.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
