Marlins Place Jorge Alfaro On IL, Select Sean Rodriguez

By Jeff Todd | July 24, 2020 at 3:07pm CDT

The Marlins announced that they’ve placed catcher Jorge Alfaro on the injured list, meaning he’s out of action for Opening Day. A reason was not given for the surprise move.

Replacing him on the active roster will be veteran utilityman Sean Rodriguez, whose contract was selected. The Fish also announced the signing of outfielder Travis Snider to a minor-league pact. He’ll head to the team’s alternate training site.

It’s obviously disappointing to see Alfaro hit the shelf right at the start of the season. The 27-year-old has established himself as a solid MLB backstop, though he’s hoping to take another step forward after posting consecutive 95 OPS+ efforts at the plate. Alfaro is also playing to set himself up for his first run at the arbitration process.

    Man, Traivs Snider, Francisco Cervelli, and Sean Rodriguez. All they need to do now is sign Josh Harrison and they’ll have rebuilt part of the 2015 Pirates.

    Am watching Braves – Mets. How good is Chipper? Doing an awesome job as a new color commentator. This group is way better than Vasgersian and A-Rod
