The Marlins are bringing back one of their most heavily used depth arms for another stint, as they've re-signed lefty Devin Smeltzer to a minor league deal, according to the team's transaction log at MLB.com.
The Marlins signed him to a minor league deal over the winter and selected his contract to the Majors on four different occasions. Each call to the big leagues was followed by a DFA after an appearance or two, and Smeltzer passed through waivers and accepted outright assignments to return to the club's Triple-A affiliate each time.
Lackluster performance notwithstanding, Smeltzer has a stronger track record dating back to his days with the Twins, who originally acquired the former fifth-round pick (2016) in a trade sending Brian Dozier to the Dodgers.
