What Jacob Amaya brings to the table

On Wednesday, the Miami Marlins traded longtime veteran shortstop Miguel Rojas to the Dodgers for Jacob Amaya (15th-ranked Dodgers prospect at the time, according to MLB Pipeline). This ends Rojas’ 8-season tenure with the team and he goes back to where he played his rookie season. Amaya, on the other hand, now goes to a Marlins team that has a long-term opening at shortstop. He’ll get an opportunity to prove that he deserves the job.

Amaya spent the 2022 season in AA and AAA, producing good overall numbers.
