Just three days removed from the announcement of their minor league contracts with the Marlins, Yuli Gurriel and José Iglesias both started in Monday’s Grapefruit League matchup vs. the Mets.
Gurriel stepped to the plate three times as Miami’s designated hitter:
- Grounded out to first base in the second
- Struck out swinging in the fourth
- Singled to center field in the sixth
