Outfielder Magneuris Sierra only had 53 plate appearances for the Marlins during the 2020 season—plus 11 more in October—but still gave us a lot to think about. Let’s dive right into it.
Midway through spring training, Sierra’s fit with the organization looked tenuous. The Marlins made a concerted effort to get Jonathan Villar comfortable in center field, flanking him with veteran free agent signings Corey Dickerson and Matt Joyce. Though the Dominican speedster got semi-regular reps in the Grapefruit League (20 PA in 14 G), his production paled in comparison to Harold Ramirez, Lewis Brinson and Monte Harrison.
