The Marlins announced today that they have designated infielder Deven Marrero for assignment. His roster spot will go to fellow infielder Neil Walker, who was activated from the injured list.
Marrero, who is closing in on his 29th birthday, was brought up recently to fill out the Miami roster. He has seen action in parts of five MLB campaigns but has never shown the spark with the bat that was anticipated when he was chosen in the first round of the 2012 draft.
Oof, I wasn’t even aware Walker was on the IL…
^^^ Hiro inadvertently announces to the world he is a casual, headline-reading baseball fan only, and that his input is probably immaterial, at best.
Since most baseball fans are keeping up with soon to be retired players on the Marlins IL
Especially guys worth 0.1 bWAR over 237 PA.
Wasted 1st round pick whom Boston held onto for way too long. at least they did manage to get a very useful BP piece out of him in Josh Taylor.
