""It is an exciting time to be part of the Marlins organization, and I am ready to continue the great work we are doing here, alongside Peter (Marlins president of baseball operations Peter Bendix) and our entire Baseball Operations staff," Kapler said in a statement. "The growth and momentum we've built are a direct reflection of a clear vision, a strong culture, and an incredible team working together toward a shared goal. I'm proud to help continue that progress and contribute to what's ahead.""

The Los Angeles-native was also the World Series champion Dodgers' director of player development from 2015-17, during which he worked with Marlins manager Clayton McCullough."
