Shipped to Miami The Marlins acquired Ruiz from the Dodgers on Monday in exchange for Adriano Marrero, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

Impact Ruiz got into 19 games with the Dodgers in 2025, going 4-for-21 with one home run and four stolen bases. The 26-year-old led the American League with 67 steals in 2023, but he's managed just a .241/.296/.343 batting line over parts of four major-league seasons and is regarded as a poor defensive outfielder. Ruiz has a better chance to make the Marlins' Opening Day roster than he would have the Dodgers', but he does have minor-league options remaining.

Bumped to minors Ruiz was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Cracks first homer Ruiz went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Brewers.

Impact The 26-year-old drew the start in left field and slugged his first long ball since April 17, 2024, when with the Athletics, with a 413-foot blast off Milwaukee starter Jose Quintana in the fifth. Ruiz was promoted from Triple-A Oklahoma City on July 3 after slashing .292/.394/.458 with eight homers and 38 stolen bases across 300 plate appearances. The Los Angeles outfielder has been used strictly in a short-side platoon role at the big leagues, posting a .250 (4-for-16) average with six strikeouts in 12 games since promotion.

Promotion made official Ruiz was recalled by the Dodgers on Thursday.

Impact Ruiz is being called up to replace Max Muncy (knee) on the active roster, though he provides depth in the outfield. Ruiz remains an exceptional stolen base threat, as he racked up 38 swiped bags across 66 games with Triple-A Oklahoma City. However, his career .297 on-base percentage in the majors will limit his opportunities, and he also isn't likely to get regular playing time.

JULY 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set to be called up The Dodgers are expected to recall Ruiz from Triple-A Oklahoma City, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Max Muncy is set to undergo an MRI on his left knee Thursday, and Ruiz's arrival suggests the former is headed to the 10-day injured list. Ruiz was acquired via trade just after Opening Day and has slashed .292/.394/.458 with eight home runs and 38 stolen bases over 66 games with Oklahoma City. The 26-year-old can be an impact fantasy player with his speed if he gets regular playing time, but regular at-bats with the Dodgers seem unlikely.

APRIL 2, 2025 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Acquired by LAD The Dodgers acquired Ruiz from the Athletics on Wednesday in exchange for Carlos Duran, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Ruiz has minor-league options left and will report to Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 26-year-old has blazing speed that helped him steal 67 bases in 2023, but he's managed just a career .243/.297/.343 batting line over parts of three seasons and has also struggled defensively. The Dodgers will see if they're able to get more out of Ruiz than the Athletics were able to.

Moved off 40-man roster The Athletics designated Ruiz for assignment Sunday.

Impact The 26-year-old was the Athletics' main return piece in the trade that sent catcher Sean Murphy (ribs) to Atlanta in 2022, but the outfielder is no longer on the 40-man roster. Ruiz stole 67 bases as a rookie in 2023 but had an underwhelming .254/.309/.345 slash line in 132 games, and he played in just 29 big-league contests last season. Ruiz will remain at Triple-A Las Vegas if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

MARCH 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Dispatched to Triple-A The Athletics optioned Ruiz to Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.

Impact Ruiz once looked to be one of the more intriguing prospects in the Athletics system after he was acquired from the Brewers in December 2022. Though he led the American League with 67 steals in 2023, Ruiz slashed just .254/.309/.345 over his first full season in the big leagues and seems to have since been passed up by other outfielders on the organizational depth chart. He spent most of the 2024 season either on the injured list or stuck in a bench role with the Athletics, and Ruiz will now have to head to Triple-A to begin the 2025 campaign due to the logjam in the big-league outfield.
