Robby Snelling is being called up to the Marlins' roster and will start on Friday against the Nationals. The team has an open 40-man spot.

Miami only claimed Bido off waivers from the Rays four days ago. They're already the 30-year-old righty's fourth organization of the offseason. Bido spent the 2024-25 seasons with the A's and finished the season on their roster. He's since bounced to the Braves, Rays and Marlins. Today's DFA could mean he lands with a fifth different club in what would be a span of under two months.

The Marlins announced a series of promotions in their baseball operations department today. Most notable among them was assistant general manager Gabe Kapler being promoted to general manager, making him the front office's #2 behind president of baseball operations Peter Bendix. In addition, scouting director Frankie Piliere was promoted to vice president of amateur forecasting and player evaluation initiatives, while Vinesh Kanthan was promoted from director of baseball operations to senior director of baseball operations. More to come.

He stuck around the Padres organization in the lower levels of the minors until he was plucked from San Diego by the Marlins in the minor league phase of the 2021 Rule 5 draft. He made his organizational debut in 2022 and mostly pitched well at the Single-A level before enjoying something of a breakout season in 2023 when he posted a 1.84 ERA in 58 2/3 innings of work between the High-A and Double-A levels.

Matt Mervis, after a promising start to the season with six home runs in 13 games, struggled significantly, posting high strikeout rates and low hitting averages subsequently.
