Braxton Garrett to Take Open Spot in Marlins Rotation
Kyle Sielaff of Marlins.TV reports that the Miami Marlins are calling left-hander Braxton Garrett from Triple-A Jacksonville to take the vacant spot in the starting rotation that was created when the team placed left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) on the injured list on Wednesday. Garrett will make his 2026 season debut for the Fish and start against the Minnesota Twins in Thursday's series finale. The 28-year-old southpaw missed the entire 2025 season due to elbow surgery, but he was looking great on the farm with the Jumbo Shrimp before his call-up, posting a 2.30 ERA and 0.80 WHIP with 32 strikeouts and 15 walks in 31 1/3 innings pitched at Jacksonville. It's unclear how long Snelling will be sidelined, but it will most likely be an extended stay on the IL, paving the way for Garrett to potentially stick around in Miami's rotation for a while. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should absolutely consider picking Garrett up off the waiver wire, and he's rostered in just 6% of Yahoo leagues.
