2021 Marlins Season Review: Isan Díaz
Photo by G Fiume/Getty Images Isan Díaz was regarded as the future second baseman for the Marlins at one point. He won the organization’s Minor League Player of the Year award in 2019 and rightfully earned a taste of the Major Leagues at the end of that season. After some initial growing pains and a sophomore season (2020) that was limited to only 7 games by injuries and his COVID opt-out decision, he entered 2021 in direct competition with Jazz Chisholm Jr.
The Marlins gave Díaz a long leash to figure things out, but he couldn’t get the job done.
