The Marlins entered 2018 with a stripped-down roster and no delusions of making the postseason, but have still played out the string with refreshing enthusiasm and swagger. Following a July 24 win over the Braves, they introduced the JDF16 MVP of the Game chain as a token of their fun-loving philosophy.
Infielder Miguel Rojas was involved in commissioning the piece:
Starting something new today, #JDF16MVPOfTheGameChain . Today belong to Starlin putting that game away with the 3-run homer. Thank you @RafaelloandCo for making this happen. pic.
