I encourage any white Marlins fans reading this to watch these interviews with president of baseball operations Michael Hill on WPLG Local 10 and right-hander Sterling Sharp on the MLB YouTube channel. Both do well to articulate the systemic discrimination that black men face in America and they’re determined to harness the nation’s outrage into meaningful change.
Infielder Brett Norwood from Virginia Commonwealth University became the Marlins’ second undrafted free agent pick-up (and eighth amateur addition overall). Florida State left-hander Antonio Velez was their first UDFA on Sunday.
