Marlins Place Jesus Aguilar, Jesus Sanchez On Injured List

By Mark Polishuk | June 17, 2022 at 5:14pm CDT

The Marlins have placed first baseman Jesus Aguilar and outfielder Jesus Sanchez on the injured list.  There weren’t designations announced for Aguilar or Sanchez, indicating that the players are on the COVID-related injured list.  To fill the two open roster spots, the Marlins called up first baseman Lewin Diaz and outfielder/first baseman Jerar Encarnacion from Triple-A.

In the event of a positive test, Aguilar/Sanchez will have to miss at least 10 days, unless they test negative twice, go 24 hours without a fever, and get clearance from three physicians (one each appointed by the league and MLBPA, plus a Marlins team doctor).  If Aguilar and/or Sanchez haven’t yet tested negative, they could be back on the roster in short order, should they just be feeling light symptoms or if they are being held out due to a close-contact situation.  Just last week, Miami’s Garrett Cooper was on the COVID-IL for such a brief stint.

Diaz and Encarnacion figure to slide right into Aguilar and Sanchez’s regular roles, and in Encarnacion’s case, he’ll be getting his first taste of Major League Baseball.  Ranked by MLB Pipeline as the 20th-best prospect in Miami’s farm system, Encarnacion is in his sixth pro season, with a .263/.322/.424 slash line over 1544 career plate appearances.  Injuries have slowed his progress, but Pipeline’s scouting report cites his power potential and 60-grade throwing arm as pluses, even if there is still a lot of swing-and-miss in Encarnacion’s game.  Over his 252 at the Double-A and Triple-A levels this season, Encarnacion has struck out in 70 of those turns at bat.

    Finally. Jerar shouldbhave been called up like a month ago. Hopefully, his little mini slump doesnt mean they waited too long. He has looked like a totally different player with his balance at the plate, and his opposite field approach

      Nice that they brought him and Lewin up, but the reality is that we’re going nowhere as long as our bullpen can’t hold leads.

        Well ya, obviously you’ve seen me talking about that consistently as well. Still glad to finally see this, even though they waited until he was in a bit of a slump to do so

          I saw MLB list something about the bullpen. Just on the road alone, where the Marlins are 13-21, the bullpen has 8 BSVs. Just on the road alone.

    The internet fanboys have concluded that Jarjar is offensive. Hope so. Florida really could use the production in the lineup

      Can he close games for the Marlins? We sure could use that too.

    Second rate 4 A team that can’t even follow simple COVID protocols for the third straight year. Oh and how about that mean machine Lopez getting lit up and hitting three batters on top of it? Just disband this mockery of a team.

    Maybe they should change the name to the Miami Marlons. Marlon Brando could be the team mascot and everything could be Brando-themed.

    When a batter strikes out, they could play Marlon as Don Corleone over the PA system saying, “Look how they massacred my boy!”

    When an opposing batter flies out, they could play Marlon as Johnny Strabler in “The Wild One” saying, “My old man used to hit harder than that!”

    If a Marlon hit into a DP to kill a rally, they could play Marlon as Col. Kurtz in “Apocalypse Now” saying, “The horror!”

    What? That wouldn’t be entertainment?

      Okay. I’ll play. And to think. They could have been a contender.

    On second thought, it would be better to play Marlon as Don Corleone over the PA system saying, “Look how they massacred my boy!” after a Marlons starter gives up a ton of runs.

      That line would be more appropriate and consistent for the bullpen.

        Pablo Lopez’ start against the Mets suggests otherwise. What will your excuse be when the Mets demolish Alcantara too today?

          When? Talk about wishful thinking. I don’t know how today is going to turn out, that’s why they actually play the games, but you can look at Sandy’s record and say When?
          That’s why there’s so much stupid in the world, even smart people can do it

    Let’s goooo. What have I been saying? Looks like they kind of messedneith his stance a bit, so I wonder if that has effected his slump situation the last 10 or so games, but regardless, you see his opposite field approach, and his easy power
