Starlyn Caba

Miami Marlins infield prospect Starlyn Caba (thumb) has been activated from the 60-day injured list. The Marlins' second-ranked prospect (MLB No. 62) had been out of action since mid-April with a sprained thumb. The 19-year-old did not complete a rehab assignment, rather, he started right back up with Single-A Jupiter on Tuesday. The switch-hitting Dominican got off to a slow start in 2025, going 7-for-38 (.184) with zero extra-base hits, however, he's walked 15 times compared to just eight strikeouts, and has stolen six bases through 12 games played. Known for his defensive skills, the youngster will need to pick it up at the plate, as even though he posted a 13.9 percent walk rate and stole 13 bases at Single-A in 2024, he hit just .179 there in 26 games. His defense, ability to get on base, and his speed on the basepaths are what will get him to the big leagues, but that is still a few years away.
