The Marlins recalled Wiemer from Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

Marlins' Joey Wiemer: Loses spot on active roster
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Wiemer to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
Wiemer will give up his spot on the 28-man active roster to outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. After being recalled from Jacksonville on Aug. 17, Wiemer was used primarily as a short-side platoon outfielder and late-inning defensive replacement. He produced a .250/.293/.462 slash line with three home runs, 12 RBI and seven runs over 58 plate appearances.

Marlins' Joey Wiemer: Pops first homer of 2025
Rotowire
Wiemer went 2-for-2 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 10-5 loss to the Nationals.
The 26-year-old outfielder took Mitchell Parker deep in the fifth inning, giving Wiemer his first homer in the majors this season. Through eight games since joining the Marlins' roster, he's batting .259 (7-for-27) with six RBI, but a 0:14 BB:K offers little reassurance that he'll remain productive.

Marlins' Joey Wiemer: Called up, starting Sunday
Rotowire
The Marlins recalled Wiemer from Triple-A Jacksonville, and he'll start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Miami brought Wiemer aboard as a replacement for Kyle Stowers (oblique), who was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. With Stowers expected to miss several weeks while recovering from a Grade 1 strain, the team seems likely to lean on a committee to replace him. The right-handed-hitting Wiemer will crack the lineup Sunday against southpaw Garrett Crochet, but he could find playing time more difficult to come by against right-handed pitching. A skilled defender, Wiemer is capable of playing all three outfield spots, but he's struggled to a .203/.315/.357 slash line across 82 games with two Triple-A clubs this season.

Marlins' Joey Wiemer: Headed to majors
Rotowire
The Marlins will recall Wiemer from Triple-A Jacksonville prior to Sunday's game in Boston, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
The move isn't official, but Wiemer will come up to replace Kyle Stowers (oblique), who is headed to the 10-day injured list. The righty-hitting Wiemer has batted .375 with two home runs, one steal and a 7:7 K:BB in 40 plate appearances at Jacksonville since the Marlins claimed him off waivers Aug. 4. The Marlins will have a handful of outfielders vying for work with Stowers set to miss multiple weeks, but Wiemer could provide power and speed in the short term if he takes command of a regular spot in the lineup.

The Marlins claimed Wiemer off waivers from the Royals on Monday.
Wiemer had been booted off the Royals' 40-man roster after slashing a disappointing .182/.291/.312 with nine home runs at Triple-A Omaha this season. The 26-year-old will look to get back on track offensively at Triple-A Jacksonville.

Royals' Joey Wiemer: Headed to Kansas City

The Reds traded Wiemer and Jonathan India to the Royals on Friday in exchange for Brady Singer.
Wiemer went just 4-for-26 with nine strikeouts in 21 big-league games played between Milwaukee and Cincinnati last season. His performance in the minors wasn't great either, as he slashed .189/.277/.226 in 119 plate appearances with the Reds' Triple-A affiliate after being traded at the deadline. Once regarded as a top prospect in the Brewers' farm system, the 25-year-old Wiemer will look to turn things around with the Royals, though he will likely report to Triple-A Omaha.
The Reds optioned Wiemer to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.
Wiemer was with the big club for a few days while Will Benson was on paternity leave, but Wiemer will now head back to the minors with Benson back in the fold. During his brief time with the Reds, Wiemer drew a walk in his lone plate appearance.

Reds' Joey Wiemer: Called up to big leagues
Rotowire
The Reds recalled Wiemer from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
Acquired Monday as part of the deal that sent right-hander Frankie Montas to Milwaukee, Wiemer will get the chance to make his Reds debut as he joins the team ahead of its series finale with the Giants. Wiemer likely won't be in line for a long-term stay in Cincinnati, however, as fellow outfielder Will Benson (personal) was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move and will be away from the team for only 1-to-3 games. The 25-year-old Wiemer has spent the bulk of the season at the Triple-A level, slashing .230/.371/.340 with three home runs and seven stolen bases in 55 games between Nashville and Louisville.

The Reds acquired Wiemer, right-hander Jakob Junis and cash considerations from the Brewers on Monday in exchange for right-hander Frankie Montas, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Wiemer will get a new opportunity with Cincinnati after struggling to break through with the Brewers. The outfielder has compiled a .224 average with three home runs, 20 RBI, 27 runs scored and six stolen bases over 236 plate appearances in 53 games with Triple-A Nashville this season. Wiemer will likely report to Triple-A Louisville with his new organization.
The Brewers optioned Wiemer to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.
With infielder Oliver Dunn being called up in a corresponding move, Wiemer will head to Nashville less than a week after returning from a stint on the injured list due to a knee injury. Wiemer has gone 4-for-26 at the dish in his 19 games this season with the Brewers.

Brewers' Joey Wiemer: Facing 2-to-3-week absence
Rotowire
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Sunday that Wiemer (knee) is expected to be sidelined for 2-to-3 weeks, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Milwaukee placed Wiemer on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a strained popliteus muscle in his left knee, an injury he suffered in Friday's win over the Cubs. While Wiemer will be sidelined for beyond the minimum 10 days, he won't require surgery and will be able to treat the injury with rest and rehab. Once he completes his rehab assignment and is activated from the IL, Wiemer could be optioned to Triple-A Nashville, depending on the overall health of the Milwaukee outfield.
