Devers

The 24-year-old infielder — and cousin of Red Sox’ superstar Rafael Devers — spent the past seven seasons in the Marlins’ organization where he appeared in 24 games at the big-league level. He’ll add infield depth for the Braves, most likely at Triple-A Gwinnett.

Pache was designated for assignment and outrighted off the Marlins’ roster just before the end of the year, and the former top prospect will be looking for yet another new home in the offseason. Devers has been in the Miami organization since the Giancarlo Stanton trade, but never was able to make a big impact. Emanuel should see interest for teams looking for pitching depth this spring.

The Marlins needed to make room with Derek Hill and Vidal Brujan coming off the IL, so Devers was let go. The 24-year-old is hitting .239/.304/.362 in 54 games at Triple-A with three home runs and three steals. He’s still young, so there’s a chance that another organization will take a shot on him; however, he likely passes through waivers unclaimed.

Hill was placed on the IL on September 7th with a shoulder injury and has seen Griffin Conine step into a starting stop in his absence. Conine will receive yet another start on Thursday, which could imply that Derek Hill fill a short-side platoon role with either Conine or Jesus Sanchez for the remainder of the season. Jose Devers was designated for assignment to make room for Hill on the 40-man roster.

Devers suffered an apparent left hand injury on an eight-inning collision at first base when he tried to corral an errant throw from third baseman Connor Norby. The 24-year-old infielder went 1-for-4 in a pair of contests for the Marlins after being brought up earlier this week from Triple-A Jacksonville.

Sanoja was quite a bit more worthy than Devers of a promotion in the first place, and it’ll be interesting to see what he can do if he gets the call. It’s unclear at the moment what is wrong with Devers.

With Vidal Brujan (shoulder) landing on the injured list on Saturday and Xavier Edwards (back) already sidelined, Devers will add some depth to the Marlins’ infield for the time being. He’s unlikely to see enough action to be relevant from a fantasy perspective.

Devers went unclaimed on waivers after being designated for assignment earlier this week. The 22-year-old shortstop hit an abysmal .244/.304/.317 with zero homers, five RBI, zero stolen bases, and an 11/3 K/BB ratio across 46 plate appearances during his time in the majors. He’ll provide Miami with some middle infield depth heading into next season.

The 22-year-old cousin of Red Sox’ superstar Rafael Devers made his big league debut in 2022 -- hitting a paltry .244/.304/.317 with zero homers, five RBI, zero stolen bases and an 11/3 K/BB ratio across 46 plate appearances. There’s a pretty good chance that he’ll pass through waivers without being claimed and will continue to serve as additional infield depth for the Marlins at Triple-A.

Devers, who is coming off right shoulder surgery, will continue to play everyday in the upper minors until the Marlins need some extra infield depth.
