As 2022 gives way to 2023, with a mere five-or-so weeks until the sight of pitchers and catchers reporting to spring training, the Miami Marlins are wrapping up an offseason of unfulfilled promises.
“The commitment to this organization is very deep,” majority owner and chairman Bruce Sherman said in November. “We’re going to continue to measure success by winning championships.” Yet Sherman’s front office has done very little to demonstrate that “commitment” aside from signing free agent infielder Jean Segura to a two-year deal. The Marlins currently project to be only marginally improved from last season’s lousy form.
