Marlins' Javier Sanoja: On base three times in shaky effort
Rotowire
Sanoja went 1-for-2 with two walks, a triple and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Rockies.
While his line in the box score looks good, it was a game Sanoja would probably rather forget. He was caught stealing after drawing a walk to lead off the second inning, then committed an error in the fifth that resulted in four unearned runs and Max Meyer's first loss of the season. Sanoja has started the last three games at three different positions (second base, shortstop and third base), and manager Clayton McCullough will likely continue to find ways to get the 23-year-old into the lineup on a regular basis given his .306/.329/.500 slash line since the beginning of June with eight extra-base hits including two homers, two steals, 11 runs and 14 RBI in 25 contests.

Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Posts another three-hit game
Rotowire
Sanoja went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and two additional runs scored in a 14-3 rout of the Rockies on Tuesday.
Sanoja turned a one-run lead into a four-run advantage with a three-run blast in the third inning. He added two singles to log his third three-hit performance over his past four games. Sanoja has gone 9-for-16 over that stretch with seven RBI, five runs and two stolen bases. He has started four of the Marlins' past five contests and seems to be in line for a consistent role between shortstop and third base.

Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Collects three hits, three RBI
Rotowire
Sanoja went 3-for-5 with a double, a triple, a run and three RBI in a 10-7 win over the Rockies on Monday.
Sanoja had one of the biggest hits of the game for the Marlins, clearing the bases with a three-run triple in the seventh inning to give the team a 9-5 lead. He finished a homer shy of a cycle while logging his second three-hit performance over his past three contests. Sanoja isn't typically counted on to be a run producer -- in fact, his three RBI in the win were more than he had tallied across his previous 16 games combined. Still, he's started at third base in two of the Marlins' past three contests and may be picking up momentum there, as Miami hasn't gotten much production from that position this season.

Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Logs three hits, two thefts in win
Rotowire
Sanoja went 3-for-4 with a run, an RBI and two stolen bases in a 5-1 win over the Cardinals on Saturday.
Sanoja took advantage of just his third start over Miami's past seven games by rapping three singles from the No. 8 spot in the batting order. The speedy utility man capitalized while he was on the basepaths with a steal in each of the fourth and ninth innings. Sanoja appears to be sharing starts at third base with Graham Pauley and Leo Jimenez, though the recent demotion of Connor Norby to the minors could lead to Sanoja seeing a bit more playing time.
