The Marlins announced today that outfielder Isaac Galloway has been designate for assignment. That creates 40-man space for the addition of Bryan Holaday, who is coming onto the roster as Chad Wallach hits the injured list with a concussion.
Galloway, 29, is a career-long Marlin who finally got his first chance at the majors last year. He performed well enough, but still ended up being bumped from the 40-man just before the start of camp. When he was brought back up to the majors earlier this year, things didn’t go quite so well.
In 54 plate appearances in the majors in 2019, Galloway carries an ugly .167/.167/.185 slash without a single walk. He has also drawn just two free passes while racking up 31 strikeouts in 70 plate appearances at Triple-A, though he has delivered strong power output (five home runs, .515 SLG) at the highest level of the minors.

No, no puede hacer bueno. He’s a AAAA player. Get out of here troll

I just thought that since many MLB players come from a Hispanic background, they might appreciate more Spanish commentary.

Perhaps if you had chosen a story about a player that comes from a Hispanic background your idea might have made a little sense. Here it was just weird.

If they come to an English language site to read an article written in English, commenting in any other language is pointless at best, patronizing at worst, and probably just annoying to all…

He’s not been good, but it must suck to know that you lost your job because of someone else’s injury. He probably would have been cut later on anyway, but that could be 2 or 3 or even more large paychecks down the road. Just tough luck.
