Miami Marlins Part Way With Eight: Spring Training Roster Cuts

While we wait with baited breath for the Miami Marlins to announce their final 25 for the Opening Day roster, the organization quietly parted ways with eight minor leaguers.

Sharif Othman, who turns 30-years-old today, was released from the Miami Marlins major league camp yesterday. The 6′ backstop and product of California Baptist University spent seven of his eight professional seasons with the Miami Marlins organization. He played the 2017 campaign in the New York Yankees system.

Othman has slashed a career .202/.265/.302 line in 402 minor league appearances, throwing out 24.6 percent of would-be base stealers.
