Marlins acquired OF Ethan O’Donnell from the Reds for OF Dane Myers.
O’Donnell heads to Miami after batting .236/.327/.325 with seven homers and 20 steals across 503 plate appearances over 125 games at Double-A Chattanooga last year. The 23-year-old outfielder was Cincinnati’s sixth-round selection in the 2023 MLB Draft out of the University of Virginia. He fits the profile of the kind of low-probability gamble rebuilding clubs can afford to make — a bet on upside, where above-average speed gives him a plausible path to becoming an everyday center fielder down the line.
