April 28: Chisholm will be placed on the 10-day injured list, reports Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald (Twitter link). The Marlins will recall fellow infielder Isan Diaz in his place. Diaz, who’ll turn 25 next month, is a former top prospect himself but has yet to find any sustained success in his limited big league action to date. Through 223 plate appearances, he’s batted just .174/.251/.294.
The Marlins have yet to provide any sort of timeline on Chisholm’s expected return, although manager Don Mattingly will surely touch on the subject prior this afternoon’s game against the Brewers.
April 27: Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm exited their game against the Brewers on Tuesday with a strained left hamstring, the team announced. The severity of the injury is unknown at this point.
Chisholm, originally acquired from the Diamondbacks for right-hander Zac Gallen in 2019, has emerged as one of baseball’s most electrifying players so far this season. The 23-year-old has already totaled 1.0 fWAR in 80 plate appearances, having slashed .290/.375/.551 with four home runs and a National League-leading seven stolen bases.
In the event Chisholm has to go on the injured list, it would further weaken a Marlins lineup that’s already missing a couple of other important contributors. Center fielder Starling Marte has been on the shelf since April 18 with a fractured rib, and his return isn’t imminent. Meanwhile, third baseman Brian Anderson and catcher Jorge Alfaro have been on the IL for a week apiece.
Jon Berti has racked up the most playing time at second for the Marlins behind Chisholm, but he has been filling in at third during Anderson’s absence. Miami replaced Chisholm on Tuesday with Jose Devers, a 21-year-old who had never played above High-A ball until the team recalled him last week.
noooooo
Sucks for my fantasy team.
Jon Berti is a good alternative who can steal bases and will probably get more playing time if Chisholm is out.
“Their”? Does Chisholm go by they/them?
“Their,” in the sentence, refers to the Marlins.
Go easy on him. They don’t speak English in the UK.
Oy mate you got a loisence to criticoize Britain?
British people when you measure in hamburgers per bad eagle instead of rainclouds per tea bag.
you got to be fookin’ kitten me? I wohnt be bodered by you dam yanks.
No, but thank you for thinking about preferred pronouns. I feel so much better with such an accepting, diverse, and open-minded comment section on MLBTR!
I prefer “bro/bruh” myself. Thank you for respecting me!
Is dude/homie acceptable? I never got a Bruh Pass from my friends with “exaggerated swagger”
Hmm, I do like the early-90s “In Living Colour” feel of dude and homie (Homey D. Clown), so that will be acceptable.
Dude is gender neutral
He is a dude
She is a dude
Group of people? Dudes
The dog? Dude
The cat? Dude
The kitchen sink or toilet when it’s clogged? Dude
The sandwich I had for lunch. It is dude as well.
LOL
….and then?
Duuude
But “The Dude” is specific to one particular person… who I prefer to believe is not fictional.
You know what would really tie this discussion together?…….
He shouldn’t be stealing all those bases. Nobody does that anymore. Jetez needs to have a talk with this boy.
Honestly it seems like players mess up their hamstrings running the bases way more than when they are trying to steal.
If he didn’t steal the bases, the Marlins would never score haha
Someone seems to not know the concept of Small Ball.
Once upon a time in a galaxy far far away, teams used to score runs by manufacturing them. It has always been an effective way to score runs that didn’t require a whole lot of hitting.
Where is Isan? He needs to play.
probably striking out
Does he have enough room to do that while in the doghouse?
Isan is most likely walking back to the dugout after a called 3rd strike. Either that or figuring out the math on how to keep his batting average under .200.
He has a meeting later tonight with Lewis Brinson and Monte Harrison to discuss their findings
Chisholm for Gallen might be one of those rare trades that significantly helps both teams. Nice to see.
Btw, 3 HR, 7 RBI for Vlad II. He’s a stud. And just like that the fat jokes disappear.
Glad to see Vlad turning into the stud he was projected to be. He actually did quite well his first couple of years considering most people his age are still in college or A ball, but it seems that the Juan Soto’s and Fernando Tatis’ of the world have skewed expectations of 20-21 year olds in MLB
Homeboy lost like 40 lbs over the offseason. Glad he’s making the haters look foolish for jumping to conclusions.
Ugh I hate losing to inferior teams like the redsoxs. Oh well.
Mets offense is overrated, pitching spotty, defense horrendous. Alonso with the golden sombrero tonight. The smart money would say sellers at the deadline.
@Cey Hey
You don’t think Dave Kingman…I mean….Pete Alonso can’t rebound and be back to what he did in the first half 2 years ago?
You’re making fun of Alonso??? Strange…. he would be by far…. your best hitter.
@MetsFan22 Thank you for the informative statement about Alonso would be by far the best hitter on the Marlins. You have really educated me on something I did not know.
Wow…I can’t believe that I missed this. When did the Marlins trade Starling Marte, Corey Dickerson, Jesus Aguilar, Garrett Cooper, Brian Anderson, Miguel Rojas, and Jazz Chisholm? Our offense found ways to score. Now we’re at the point where Alonso would be our best hitter without these 7 others on our team anymore. Now we’ll also have an ineffective offense like the one that Alonso is a part of, unlike when the Marlins had the 7 above that clearly must have been traded if Alonso would be by far our best hitter if we had him. I thought these firesales were over. After all, why can’t the Marlins change with the new ownership. The Mets have with their new owner. Look at the results.
When the dodgers are facing Degrom 2-3 times carrasco stroman and syndergaard in the playoffs and lose I hope you don’t say we have a spotty pitching staff. Most ridiculous statement of the day.
I love these predictions.
I don’t know what the Marlins going to do with such a weak pitching staff compared to the Mets pitching staff. That staff is well on their way to leading the Mets to 103 wins!
Think “ smart money” answers your rhetorical question.
@MetsFan22
Keep making more of your predictions. I like them.
We have a better record than you guys but we are inferior. Mets22 you need to sit out this one.
I doubt you believe you’ll finish with a better record….
@metsfan22
Man, the Mets didn’t give deGrom any support tonight. I’m obviously not a Mets fan but I feel bad for the guy. He’s the best in the game with out a doubt but it’s weird how he gets no help so much. Considering the Mets have a good line-up it’s even more baffling. Btw have you heard anything about when cookie is supposed to be back? I love to see him pitch, just obviously not when the braves have to face him lol.
Jazz hams.
That hammy probably couldn’t support the weight of the 6 or so gold chains that Jazz wears around his neck
Weak. Jazz’s breakout is one of the several things the Marlins need to go right.
He was super impressive when I watched him against the Giants. The game needs more young, dynamic players like him. Hope it’s not serious.
Marlins dealing with some injuries. Whew! I would say that it isn’t like last year when we were healthy because last year we weren’t healthy either – for different reasons.
Just a heads up – the show ” I am Jazz” has nothing to do with Jazz Chisholm at all.
I read this name as Chazz Jisholm every time.
