Brian Navarreto - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Headed to minor-league camp The Marlins reassigned Navarreto to minor-league camp Wednesday.

Impact Navarreto received 15 plate appearances over eight games with the Marlins in 2025, but he was never expected to have much of a shot at breaking camp with the big club so long as the team's top two backstops, Agustin Ramirez and Liam Hicks, were both available heading into Opening Day. The 31-year-old will presumably open the campaign at Triple-A Jacksonville.

The 30-year-old got into eight games with Miami in 2025, going 4-for-14 with one home run at the dish. Navarreto is likely pegged for Triple-A Jacksonville to begin the 2026 campaign.

Impact Entering the game in the eighth inning with the Marlins getting routed 9-1, Navarreto got hold of a Tanner Banks fastball for his first career big-league homer. It was the first appearance for the 30-year-old backstop since being added to the roster at the beginning of September, and his playing time will likely remain scarce with Agustin Ramirez and Liam Hicks getting most of the catcher reps for Miami.
