Marlins announce overhauled major league medical staff for 2022 season

Credit the Marlins for being diligent, if nothing else. Almost immediately after the 2021 season ended, they determined that changes were needed on their athletic training staff. Finally, on Tuesday—more than 100 days later—they announced several newcomers:

  • Lee Meyer hired as head athletic trainer (replacing Gene Basham)
  • Richard Lembo and Ben Potenziano hired as assistant athletic trainers (replacing Brad LaRosa and Chris Mudd)
  • Erika Gonzalez-Rebull hired as dietician

Lee Tressel (strength and conditioning coach), Amanda Sartoris (assistant strength and conditioning coach), Andrew Turpin (major league physical therapist) and Koji Tanaka (massage therapist) are returning from last year.
