Charles Leblanc, one of the only Marlins prospects in recent years to (literally) hit the ground running upon reaching the majors, is on his way out of the organization. Miami designated Leblanc for assignment on Wednesday to make room for newly signed Jean Segura on their 40-man roster.
Leblanc was originally drafted and developed by the Texas Rangers before the Marlins took a flier on him in the minor league phase of the 2021 Rule 5 Draft. He excelled at the plate during his four months with Triple-A Jacksonville (.302/.381/.503, 134 wRC+, 14 HR in 360 PA) while demonstrating the versatility to play four different defensive positions.
