The Dodgers have traded outfielder Esteury Ruiz to the Marlins in exchange for minor league pitcher Adriano Marrero, with Miami set to designate first baseman Eric Wagaman for assignment. Ruiz, who led the AL with 67 stolen bases in 2023, struggled offensively in the majors, batting .254/.309/.345, but excelled in Triple-A. Marrero, an 18-year-old Cuban righty, boasts a promising three-pitch mix and was noted as one of the more intriguing prospects from this year’s signing class. This trade reduces Los Angeles’ roster to 39, prompting speculation about potential future moves.
