Impact The 23-year-old was struggling earlier this spring, going 1-for-17 with seven strikeouts over an eight-game stretch, but Chisholm may be finding a groove at the plate. He's improved to 5-for-22 (.227) in Grapefruit League play with a 1:7 BB:K, while his main competition for the starting second base job, Isan Diaz, hasn't done much better. Diaz is 2-for-18 (.111) with zero homers through 11 games, although he does have a superior 5:6 BB:K. Whichever player steps it up over the final days of March will likely find himself in the Opening Day lineup.

Could win second base job Chisholm is competing with Jon Berti and Isan Diaz for the starting second base job with the Marlins to begin the season, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.
Impact While the team still views Chisholm as a shortstop in the long term, Miguel Rojas holds down that job for now and is making a reasonable $5 million this season, with a $5.5 million club option for 2022 that becomes guaranteed if Rojas sees 500 PAs this year. As a result, if Chisholm proves in camp he doesn't need any more time in the minors, he'll have to slide over to the keystone. The 23-year-old is the Marlins' No. 4 prospect but posted a disappointing .563 OPS over 21 games in his big-league debut last season.

Showcases power vs. Yankees Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, three RBI and two runs in Sunday's win against the Yankees.
Impact Chisholm capped off the regular season with one of his best performances as the Marlins beat the Yankees to secure the No. 6 seed in the playoffs. The 22-year-old saw limited playing time down the stretch, and it's unclear whether the Marlins will ride his hot bat during the NL Wild Card Series.

On bench Saturday Chisholm is not in the lineup Saturday against the Nationals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Chisholm finds himself on the bench for the second game in a row, though he did start the first half of Friday's doubleheader. He's failed to impress thus far in his debut season, hitting .130/.231/.239 in 17 games. Sean Rodriguez starts at second base Saturday.

Two XBH in loss Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a home run, a triple and two RBI in the Marlins' 29-9 loss to the Braves on Wednesday.
Impact Despite a miserable performance from his team's pitching staff, Chisholm's exploits at the plate offered something of a silver lining for Miami. The two extra-base hits were the first of the young middle infielder's career, as he had gotten off to a 1-for-16 start at the dish following his Sept. 1 callup from the Marlins' alternate training site. Though Chisholm looks poised to continue seeing regular starts at second base while he's up with the big club, he'll need to turn in more outings like Wednesday's in order to hold off Isan Diaz, who should eventually return from the Marlins' alternate site after recently opting back into the 2020 season.

Batting ninth in first start Chisholm will start at shortstop and will bat ninth Wednesday against the Blue Jays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact After coming off the bench in his MLB debut Tuesday, Chisholm will pick up his first career start while Miguel Rojas (abdomen) gets the day off. Rojas is expected to reclaim everyday duties at shortstop once he's healthy again, but Chisholm could still have a path to regular playing time at second base after the Marlins' primary option at the position this season, Jonathan Villar, was traded to Toronto on Monday. Chisholm would still have to hold off Jon Berti for playing time at the keystone, as well as Isan Diaz (personal), who is expected to be activated from the restricted list soon after he informed Miami he was opting back into the 2020 season.
SEPTEMBER 2, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Set for big-league debut Chisholm was recalled by the Marlins on Tuesday and will be available off the bench against the Blue Jays, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact While Chisholm has yet to play above the Double-A level, he's quite an interesting prospect. He's a very toolsy player, possessing above-average speed and raw power with the potential to play above-average defense at shortstop. There are big question marks surrounding his ability to make enough contact, however, as he's struck out in 32.1 percent of his career minor-league plate appearances. Those issues are unlikely to suddenly go away as he makes the jump to the highest level, so it's quite possible Chisholm has a rough time at the plate initially. Regardless of how he performs down the stretch, he has plenty of long-term upside.

Not likely to get promotion The Marlins aren't expected to promote top prospects like Chisholm to their 30-man roster in the wake of the team's COVID-19 outbreak, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.
Impact There will be a lot of holes to fill on the roster, but Miami is leaning towards adding players who already have some major-league experience rather than starting the service-time clocks on prospects like Chisholm or Sixto Sanchez. Chisholm will continue working out at the Marlins' alternate training site in Jupiter, Florida, but it seems as though his debut will have to wait until at least 2021.

Sent to Triple-A The Marlins optioned Chisholm to Triple-A Wichita on Tuesday, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.
Impact Chisholm was one of seven players sent to minor-league camp as Miami aims to trim down its roster to 26 men prior to Opening Day. The toolsy shortstop is expected to spend most of the season in the Pacific Coast League, but he should settle into an everyday role with Miami once he eventually receives the call to the big leagues.

Launches first spring homer Chisholm went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals.
Impact The fifth-inning blast off Genesis Cabrera was Chisholm's first homer of the spring, and per Statcast it left his bat at a blistering 112 mph. The 22-year-old is the Marlins' No. 1 fantasy prospect and is looking the part in camp, slashing .308/.500/.615 through 18 plate appearances with two steals in two attempts and a 5:4 BB:K. Chisholm will likely begin the season at Triple-A Wichita, but he'll really need to force the issue for the rebuilding Marlins to consider bringing him up before 2021.
