Braxton Garrett (5) Garrett was solid when he started four games for the Grasshoppers in the middle of last season, but was then placed on the disabled list for Tommy John Surgery. We can expect to see him again by next year.
Trevor Rogers (6) Rogers, Miami’s first round pick in 2017, has gone 1-4 with a 5.98 ERA over 11 starts with the Hoppers. He’s been better lately. After his ERA ballooned to 9.15 after his sixth start, he’s allowed 10 earned runs and struck out 29 in his last 26 innings. More on him here.

Joe Dunand (19) Dunand, who is considered a shortstop and a third baseman, earned a promotion to the Jumbo Shrimp about a month ago. He’s still finding out how to hit double-A pitching, and currently slashing just .138/.203/.275. More on him here.
Robert Dugger (N/A) Dugger, currently slinging for the Jumbo Shrimp, has earned a 4.44 ERA and a 5-6 record this year between Jacksonville and the Hammerheads. More on him here.
