In a year where the word “unprecedented” is being thrown around like a baseball on the diamond, teams across the Major Leagues have been calling up their high-level prospects as frequently as ever. The Marlins have been no different, debuting nine of the organization’s top 30 prospects, including top pitching prospects Sixto Sánchez and Trevor Rogers.
As the top prospect in a loaded Marlins farm system, Sánchez’s big league debut was one of the more anticipated of recent memory. The flame-throwing right-hander who was the centerpiece of the J.T. Realmuto trade has long been seen as an integral part of the future of the Marlins rotation.
