Marlins claim Julian Fernández ahead of Rule 5 deadline

The Marlins Death Fog has come for Julian Fernández. Yesterday, the home run sculpture-less Miami Marlins claimed Fernández on waivers ahead of tonight’s deadline to set rosters before th Rule 5 Draft, thus ending his tenure with the San Francisco Giants. Across all levels of play, his final line with the Giants:

0 IP, 0 K, 0 BB, 0.00 ERA

Fernández, who the Giants received in last year’s Rule 5 draft, never got a chance to pitch for the Giants as he was diagnosed with a UCL tear in Spring Training and underwent Tommy John.
