Shifting back to bench Wagaman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Wagaman will hit the bench after starting each of the past four games at either first base or designated hitter while going 5-for-15 with two doubles, three walks, three runs and one RBI. The Marlins will likely continue to make room for the 27-year-old in the lineup against left-handed pitching, but his opportunities to play against righties may be more sporadic after Miami brought back Jesus Sanchez (oblique) from the injured list Tuesday.

On base five times in win Wagaman went 3-for-3 with two walks, a double and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Nationals.

Impact The 27-year-old infielder had gone 2-for-20 to begin April before Sunday's big performance. Wagaman has mainly split his time between first base and DH so far with the Marlins, slashing .231/.318/.359 through 44 plate appearances with a homer, three RBI and a 5:4 BB:K.

Swats first homer of year Wagaman went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's loss to the Mets.

Impact Getting the start at DH and batting third against David Peterson, Wagaman took the southpaw deep for a solo shot in the sixth inning. It was the 27-year-old utility player's first long ball of the season, and Wagaman has been seeing more playing time than expected in the early going with Connor Norby and Jesus Sanchez both on the shelf with oblique injuries. Wagaman has started three straight games, all against lefties, and gone 4-for-15 (.267).

Impact Norby's injury will likely pave the way for Graham Pauley to make the Opening Day roster as an extra infielder, but De Nicola relays that the Marlins are likely to lean primarily on Wagaman and Jonah Bride at the third base and DH spots early on. After making his MLB debut with the Angels late last season, the 27-year-old Wagaman was non-tendered in November before signing a one-year deal with Miami. He earned his spot on the Marlins' 26-man active roster after producing a .738 OPS over 53 plate appearances in Grapefruit League play.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Appears set for bench spot Wagaman should be on the Marlins' Opening Day roster, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Graham Pauley's assignment to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday removed Wagaman's main competition for a spot. The 27-year-old hasn't done much at the plate this spring, batting .200 (7-for-35) with two homers, one steal and a 5:9 BB:K, but he has experience at both infield and both outfield corners, versatility that could come in handy off the bench with Jesus Sanchez (side) set to begin the season on the IL.

Signs on with Miami The Marlins signed Wagaman to a one-year contract Friday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

Impact Alvarez-Montes indicates that it's a major-league deal for Wagaman, who was non-tendered by the Angels last month. The 27-year-old got a cup of coffee with the Halos in 2024, slashing .250/.270/.403 with two homers in 18 games. He hit .274/.339/.469 with 17 home runs last year in the minors. Wagaman should have a pretty good chance to make the Opening Day roster on a talent-deficient Marlins club.

Let go by Halos The Angels non-tendered Wagaman on Friday.

Impact Wagaman was dropped from the Angels' 40-man roster Tuesday in order to protect Jack Dashwood from the Rule 5 Draft, and the former will now become a free agent after Los Angeles declined to offer him a contract ahead of Friday's deadline. The 27-year-old put up an .855 OPS in 107 Triple-A plate appearances last season, and he'll likely fill in as organizational depth with the team he signs with in free agency.

Dropped from 40-man The Angels designated Wagaman for assignment Tuesday.

Impact Wagaman slashed .250/.270/.403 with 10 RBI across the first 74 plate appearances of his MLB career in 2024, but the Angels decided his 40-man spot would be better used on Jack Dashwood, who had been eligible for the Rule 5 Draft. However, Wagaman turned in an .808 OPS over 121 minor-league games, so another team may be willing to claim him off waivers.

Three hits against 'Stros Wagaman went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Friday's 9-7 loss to the Astros.

Impact The 27-year-old is having a nice finish to the season in his first look at big-league pitching. Over the last seven games, Wagaman's batting .355 (11-for-31) with four doubles, two homers, five runs and seven RBI, and he's at least put himself in position to compete for a regular spot on the 26-man roster next spring.
