Tomorrow, the Miami Marlins get the first non-scrimmage game action of Spring Training, 2019.

The Miami Marlins will be facing off against a team with a lot of unanswered questions of their own in the St. Louis Cardinals. The Marlins have 66 players in camp, 26 of them on non-roster invitations. Some of those players could surprise and break through, but which ones? We seek to give you some insight into that in this article.

On Monday, we checked out the starting rotation, followed in turn by the outfield, the bullpen, and the catching corps. Today, a deep look at the Miami Marlins infield. Who’s locked in – who’s in the mix – and who’s probably a long-shot?

As to who makes it, a whole lot has to do with what happens in camp over the next five-or-so weeks. There are a few who can bank on making the parent club, and we’ll take a look at them first.
