The early part of the offseason is underway, and things are happening for the Miami Marlins.
While they don’t have free agents they need to focus on re-signing, they do have to make some major roster decisions as players on the 60-day injured list have to be activated and Rule 5 draft-eligible prospects have to be protected.
With that in mind, it shouldn’t be a surprise to see the Marlins clearing some space on their 40-man roster by choosing to outright players back to Triple-A Jacksonville. But unfortunately, two players are no longer with the organization, as first baseman Troy Johnston and right-handed pitcher George Soriano were claimed off waivers by the Colorado Rockies and Baltimore Orioles, respectively.
