Marlins Acquire Rece Hinds, Holding Stash Value Amid Potential Return to the Majors?
The Miami Marlins acquired outfielder Rece Hinds from the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday in exchange for right-hander Zach McCambley, according to Isaac Azout of Fish on First. The 25-year-old Hinds will now head to the National League East after the Reds designated him for assignment last week. The former second-rounder in 2019 will report to Triple-A Jacksonville. He offers elite power/exit velocity, but also swings and misses quite often. He hit only 121 (4-for-33) with one walk and 18 strikeouts in 12 games this season in Cincy and also batted .116 (5-for-43) with a walk and 21 strikeouts in 15 games for the Reds in 2025. Hinds has seven home runs and 19 RBI in his 51 big-league games, but he's also sporting a 42% strikeout rate and 4.6% walk rate, which isn't conducive to long-term success. In 23 games for Triple-A Louisville in 2026, Hinds has hit .306/.423/.635 with seven homers. In NL-only leagues, Hinds is worth a look off the waiver wire for his raw power, but in mixed leagues, he can continue to be ignored. He's currently not rostered at all in any Yahoo leagues.
