Roger Dean Stadium, Jupiter, FL
Kyle Tucker - Good chance to play SundayTucker (ankle) is likely to return to the lineup for Sunday's Grapefruit League finale, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
ImpactTucker is considered day-to-day with a minor ankle sprain that he suffered while playing for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic. Even if he is held out of the lineup for Sunday's finale, there's a very good chance the left-handed-hitting outfielder is back in the lineup for Opening Day against the White Sox on Thursday.

Hunter Brown - Will throw bullpen SundayBrown (back) will throw a bullpen prior to Sunday's Grapefruit League finale, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
ImpactBrown is recovering from lower-back tightness, but he has been able to play catch on flat ground and now will get a chance to throw off the mound Sunday. The right-hander could open the season on the injured list, but there's some positive momentum that suggests he can begin the year as a member of the Houston rotation.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. - Swipes two bags FridayChisholm went 1-for-3 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Astros.
ImpactGetting the start in center field and hitting second, Chisholm flashed his wheels on the front end of a double steal with Jorge Soler. Chisholm seems likely to hit second regularly this season, with Luis Arraez's contact skills filling the leadoff spot. After slugging 14 home runs and stealing 12 bases in only 60 games in 2022, staying healthy seems to be the only thing between Chisholm and a huge fantasy campaign. Chisholm has hit .233 (10-for-43) this spring with two homers and three steals.

Huascar Brazoban - Likely in Opening Day bullpenBrazoban appears to be on track for a spot on the Opening Day roster, Jordan McPherson of The Miami Herald reports.
ImpactThe 33-year-old right-hander made his big-league debut in 2022, posting a 3.09 ERA and 28.4 percent strikeout rate over 32 innings while averaging 97.2 mph with his fastball. He also walked 14.9 percent of the batters he faced. Brazoban should work the middle innings for the Marlins, limiting his fantasy appeal despite his ability to miss bats.

Andrew Nardi - Appears set for bullpen roleNardi appears to be on track for a spot on the Opening Day roster, Jordan McPherson of The Miami Herald reports.
ImpactThe 24-year-old lefty is one of the last 13 pitchers remaining in camp with the Marlins. Nardi made his big-league debut in a low-leverage role last season but stumbled to a 9.82 ERA and 2.66 WHIP over 14.2 innings. He'll likely handle middle innings and long-relief situations again as the third southpaw in the bullpen behind A.J. Puk and Tanner Scott.

Braxton Garrett - MLB-bound but may not startGarrett is expected to break camp in the big leagues, but he'll be a long reliever rather than a sixth starter if he fails to win a rotation spot over Edward Cabrera, Jordan McPher...
ImpactGarrett and Cabrera have been in a battle all spring, and at one point it seemed as though they could both emerge victorious, with the Marlins seemingly open to a six-man rotation. The decision has been made to go the traditional five-man route instead, but the loser of the battle should still remain on the roster, as injuries have left Miami with just 13 healthy pitchers in big-league camp. Garrett's 8.25 ERA this spring is far worse than Cabrera's 1.86 mark, though Garrett's 12:5 K:BB is more impressive than Cabrera's seven strikeouts and four walks.

Nick Fortes - Returns to lineup SaturdayFortes (knee) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
ImpactAs expected, Fortes will return to action after missing a week with tendonitis in his right knee. The plan is for him to catch again Sunday as he looks to make up for lost time. The Marlins' projected backup catcher, Fortes is 4-for-16 in exhibition play this spring.
