Marlins Reinstate Derek Hill, Designate Jack Winkler for Assignment

News summary

The Miami Marlins reinstated outfielder Derek Hill from the 10-day injured list after a finger sprain, marking his return following a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville. Hill, who injured his left middle finger during batting practice last month, has appeared in 33 games this season and is batting .211 with two home runs. Meanwhile, the Marlins designated infielder Jack Winkler for assignment and claimed outfielder Joey Wiemer off waivers from the Kansas City Royals, optioning him to Triple-A Jacksonville. Wiemer has struggled this season, hitting .182 with nine home runs and 38 RBIs at Triple-A Omaha. Hill's return adds depth to the Marlins' outfield, although recent positional shifts by teammates may limit his starting opportunities. Hill has a history of fluctuating between major and minor leagues, with past experience across several minor league levels and MLB teams since his 2014 draft selection.
