Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Late addition to lineup
Rotowire
Marsee was added to the Miami lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies and will start in center field and bat ninth, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
With southpaw Jesus Luzardo on the hill for the Phillies, the left-handed-hitting Marsee had been scheduled to receive the afternoon off. However, after third baseman Leo Jimenez was a late scratch due to a stomach ailment, Javier Sanoja will cover the hot corner, while Marsee will be needed to fill the open outfield spot. Marsee will be flanked in the outfield by Heriberto Hernandez in left and Esteury Ruiz in right.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Productive from bottom of order
Rotowire
Marsee went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Monday's win over the Phillies.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Not starting Sunday
Rotowire
Marsee is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.
It's the second absence in the past four games for Marsee despite the fact that the Marlins haven't faced a left-handed starting pitcher since last weekend. Marsee is mired in a 3-for-23 slump and has a .605 OPS through 100 games this season, and the lack of offensive production may be catching up to him. Esteury Ruiz has an .853 OPS in 132 plate appearances this year and is picking up another start in center field for Miami.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: In Miami lineup Tuesday
Rotowire
Marsee (knee) will start in center field and bat seventh in Tuesday's game versus the Mariners.
Marsee had to be lifted from Sunday's game against the Athletics with a right knee contusion, but he will not have to miss a start, as Miami's team off day Monday evidently afforded the outfielder enough rest. The 25-year-old is slashing a disappointing .192/.316/.296 this season but does have five home runs and 18 stolen bases.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Exits game with knee contusion
Rotowire
Marsee was removed from Sunday's game against the Athletics due to a right knee contusion, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports. He went 1-for-1 with two runs scored before leaving the game.
Marsee was hit in the right kneecap by a pitch from Gage Jump in the third inning. The outfielder initially stayed in the game to run the bases but was replaced by Griffin Conine in the bottom of the frame. The good news for Marsee is that X-rays came back negative, and with the Marlins having an off-day Monday, he may not miss time and could be in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the Mariners.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Goes deep in win
Rotowire
Marsee went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-7 win over the Nationals.
Marsee came up clutch Saturday, breaking a 4-4 tie with a three-run blast off Mitchell Parker in the bottom of the eighth inning. It was a much-needed swing from the 24-year-old, who last homered April 21 and entered the contest just 4-for-25 so far in the month of May. Overall, he's slashing a disappointing .178/.297/.274 with two home runs, 13 RBI and 21 runs scored across 173 plate appearances, but he's still provided some fantasy value with 10 steals on the campaign.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Crosses plate twice in Sunday's win
Rotowire
Marsee went 0-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Yankees.
The center fielder has had a tough start to the season with his bat, slashing just .118/.225/.206 through nine games with zero homers, one steal and a 5:13 BB:K, but he has managed to score five runs. Plate discipline wasn't a big problem for Marsee in his big-league debut last year, as he produced a 20.5 percent strikeout rate against a 9.4 percent walk rate, but as yet he hasn't found his 2025 form.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Slugs first spring homer
Rotowire
Marsee went 1-for-2 with two walks, a solo home run and a second run scored in the Marlins' Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals on Monday.
The 24-year-old center fielder took Michael McGreevy deep to lead off the game, and Marsee didn't see much to hit after that before exiting the game in the sixth inning. After an impressive big-league debut in 2025 that saw him slash .292/.363/.478 with five homers and 14 steals in just 55 games for Miami, Marsee is being counted on to make an impact from the top of the lineup this season.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Swipes bag to kick off spring
Rotowire
Marsee went 1-for-2 with a walk, two runs scored and a stolen base in the Marlins' Grapefruit League game against the Mets on Saturday.
The 24-year-old got the start in center field and hit leadoff, swiping his first bag of the spring after drawing a leadoff walk against Joe Jacques in the sixth inning. Marsee stole 60 bases in 80 attempts between Triple-A and the majors last season, and while that middling success rate may limit the number of green lights he gets once Opening Day rolls around, hitting regularly at the top of the order should still give him plenty of opportunities to take an extra base.

Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Four more hits Wednesday
Rotowire
Marsee went 4-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Nationals.
All four knocks were singles, but the rookie center fielder just keeping on raking. Marsee has seven multi-hit performances in his last 15 games, slashing .344/.412/.443 during that span with three doubles, one homer, three steals, four RBI and nine runs. His .977 OPS in his first 39 big-league games is second only to the A's Nick Kurtz (1.023 OPS) among all rookies with at least 100 plate appearances this season, and only a late promotion is keeping Marsee out of the NL Rookie of the Year discussion.
