Marlins Trade for Speedster Ruiz from Dodgers
MIAMI, FL – The Miami Marlins have acquired outfielder Ruiz from the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for Adriano Marrero, as reported by Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com. The trade was finalized on Monday.
Ruiz, 26, played in 19 games for the Dodgers last season, hitting .190 (4-for-21) with one home run and four stolen bases. While he led the American League with 67 steals in 2023, his career MLB batting average stands at .241 with a .296 on-base percentage and .343 slugging percentage over four seasons. He is also noted to be a below-average defensive outfielder.
The move to Miami potentially offers Ruiz a better opportunity to secure a spot on the Marlins’ Opening Day roster. However, he still has minor league options available, providing the Marlins with roster flexibility. The Marlins have not released a statement about the trade.
