Photo by Mark Brown/Getty ImagesIn 2019, the second year of a full-scale rebuild, the Miami Marlins gave ten players their major league debuts. Five of them—Isan Díaz, Robert Dugger, Zac Gallen, José Quijada, and Jordan Yamamoto—were regarded as Top 30 Marlins prospects by MLB Pipeline. With another year of growth for the farm system in the books, the bulk of Miami's most talented prospects now project to start the season at Triple-A or Double-A, meaning that plenty more debuts are penciled in for 2020. FanGraphs recently updated their Top 40 Marlins prospects list, and listed 13 players (including Dugger) with an ETA of 2020.
