The Miami Marlins get a major boost to the lineup
The Miami Marlins are bringing back two bats to the lineup. I'm talking about the recently hurt CF Jazz Chisholm Jr. and the injured disappointing 3B Jean Segura. The Fish need some hitting help, and getting back one of the best hitters on the team is vital. Did you know that Jazz is also one of the best defensive CF's in the game?! He wasn't joking when he said that he can win a Gold Glove in CF. Jazz and Segura have been reinstated from the injured list...
The Miami Marlins are getting key injured players back.
Jean Segura has been a disappointment for the Miami Marlins this season. The new acquisition has a horrible -1.6 WAR. He also has a disappointing .190/.259/.234 batting line in 60 games and 205 AB. He has a .224 BABIP, which is lower than his career .313 mark. Perhaps there's still a chance that he can turn his disappointing season around.
The big news is of course the return of Jazz Chisholm Jr. Jazz hasn't been great offensively this season, hitting .229/.291/.403 in 39 games and 144 AB. That's worse than his career .241/.303/.441 batting line. Last season, Jazz hit 14 home runs in 213 AB. That means that he could hit 30 in a full season. Jazz has all of the tools, but needs to stay healthy. If he stays healthy for the rest of the season, I expect very good results.
IF/OF Garrett Hampson is one of the two players going back down to the Minor Leagues, making room for Jazz and Segura. Hampson is batting .240/.321/.336 with 1 home run and 10 RBI, in 55 games and 143 AB. He's been worth 0.0 WAR. The utility man should be back at some point this season.
The other player that the Miami Marlins sent back down to AAA is SS Jacob Amaya. Amaya is a top prospect that The Fish acquired in the off-season. He has been worth 0.0 WAR this season, batting .222/.222/.222 with 0 home runs and 2 RBI in 4 games and 9 AB. This hasn't been an impressive debut, but he'll get another chance as the team's SS of the future.
