Derek Jeter reacted thusly. To make room on the 40-man roster, the team designated J.T. Riddle and Tayron Guerrero for assignment. Craig Mish doesn’t think the Marlins are done either.

The Herald’s Jordan McPherson laid out the likely Marlins’ 2020 defense. MLB.com’s Joe Frisaro laid out some other possible targets, such as former Ray and Diamondback outfielder Steven Souza, and former Pirate catcher Francisco Cervelli.
More big news...
The fences are coming in next season. The bats are happy, but the pitchers must be suffering somewhere with the announcement.
