Not in mix for second base job Berti is not considered part of the competition for the Marlins' starting second base job, Andre C. Fernandez of The Miami Herald reports.

Impact Prospects Jazz Chisholm and Isan Diaz are fighting for that spot, with the loser of the battle expected to begin the season at Triple-A Jacksonville, while Berti slots in as the backup in either case. With both younger players unproven, however, it wouldn't be a surprise if neither can hold onto the job, giving Berti a path to plenty of playing time at the keystone in addition to his utility duties elsewhere on the diamond. The 31-year-old has taken advantage of his opportunities in Miami the last two seasons, posting a .269/.362/.388 slash line with 26 steals in 31 attempts over 436 plate appearances while seeing action everywhere except first base and catcher.

Overtakes Chisholm as top 2B Berti will start at second base and will bat eighth Wednesday against the Braves, Andre Fernandez of Sirius XM Radio reports.

Impact Berti started in each of his first four games since returning from the injured list over the weekend, going 2-for-7 with six walks. With a fifth straight start on tap Wednesday, Berti looks to have unseated Jazz Chisholm for the top job at the keystone.
