The Marlins are among the teams to express interest in free agent infielder, reports Jon Morosi of MLB Network. Both the Yankees and Mets were reported to have interest as well earlier in the offseason. Miami is known to be exploring the free agent market for infield help, with other reported targets including Tim Anderson, Amed Rosario, and Adalberto Mondesi.
Unlike that quarter, the 32-year-old Urshela offers only minimal experience at shortstop - the likeliest place on the diamond if he signs in Miami. The Marlins have Jake Burger and lined up at the infield corners, with Luis Arraez penciled in at second base. The Fish could potentially utilize Burger at designated hitter more often (or move him to first base with Bell taking DH reps) in order to free up some time at the hot corner for Urshela, but finding help at shortstop has been a priority for Miami this winter.
