Marlins Activate Jorge Guzman

By Anthony Franco | July 13, 2021 at 10:09pm CDT

The Marlins have activated right-hander Jorge Guzman from the 60-day injured list, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com was among those to relay. He has been optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville. Miami already had a vacancy on the 40-man roster, which is now full.

Guzman, a hard-throwing pitching prospect, made his MLB debut with Miami last season. He began this year with Jacksonville, making four appearances before going down with elbow inflammation. A starting pitcher for much of his minor league career, he’d been working out of the bullpen with the Jumbo Shrimp this season. That’s generally been the expected outcome for the 25-year-old. Entering the year, Baseball America ranked Guzman the #22 prospect in the organization, writing that he could be a productive reliever if he develops adequate control.

Additionally, the Marlins outrighted a pair of hurlers who had recently been designated for assignment: lefty Shawn Morimando and righty Preston Guilmet. Both pitchers made one-day cameos on the roster last weekend. Morimando tossed five innings of scoreless relief, while Guilmet was designated without having made an appearance. Both pitchers have been outrighted before, giving them the right to elect free agency in lieu of assignment to Jacksonville.

    Just another Marlins reliever who can throw 100 but not find the strike zone.
    Do we have a monopoly on these kinds of players or something?

      According to one well informed Floridian, only other teams produce prospects that do not pan out.

        Guy I mean that just about every relief prospect in the Miami system can pump 100mph with no effort and not find the strike zone.
        Do you just live on this site to be annoying ? Go outside.

        Which Marlins fan claims that only other teams produce prospects that do not pan out? I know I’m the Marlins fan that points out that Mets prospects do not pan out at a higher rate than all other teams since the MLB Draft started – especially those epic failed overly hyped Mets prospects.

        Maybe you need to go find your buddy @MetsFan22 to come up with excuses as to why the Mets won’t win 95-103 games this year, despite all of the problems their division rivals are having with health.

      Let’s see how he Guzman turns out. I think the relievers we have this year, like Bass, etc. have problems that are less about talent or control, but more about a lack of testicular fortitude. You can see the fear in their eyes before they even throw the first pitch. I haven’t seen this many Marlins relievers drizzling on themselves while on the mounds since we had Kevin Gregg and Renyel “Ford” Pinto taking turns at seeing who can blow more or bigger leads. And it must suck for the ground keepers having to maintain the mound. To help the grounds crew, the Marlins should get approval to use a portable mound for when they change pitchers to go to Bass, etc. Instead of the clay that our SPs and confident relievers use, they can switch to kitty litter for Bass, Floro, Garcia, etc. If they can’t use a protable mound, then they need to get those guys to wear diapers.
