"The Marlins announced that five players have been outrighted off the 40-man roster. They are right-handers Jesús Tinoco, Tyler Zuber, Valente Bellozo and Freddy Tarnok, as well as catcher Brian Navarreto."
"There had been no previous indication that the Marlins had designated these players for assignment or put them on waivers. However, roster cleanouts like this are expected at this time of year. The 60-day injured list goes away five days after the World Series, meaning several players need to retake 40-man roster spots. The Marlins opened space with these five moves. They also lost Troy Johnston to the Rockies and George Soriano to the Orioles via waiver claims today."
The Miami Marlins removed five players from the 40-man roster: right-handers Jesús Tinoco, Tyler Zuber, Valente Bellozo and Freddy Tarnok, plus catcher Brian Navarreto. There was no prior indication that those players had been designated for assignment or placed on waivers. Roster cleanouts are common at this point because the 60-day injured list expires five days after the World Series, forcing teams to reset 40-man rosters. The Marlins created open spots with these outrights and also lost Troy Johnston to the Rockies and George Soriano to the Orioles via waiver claims. Additional roster moves may follow.
