The Miami Marlins signed infielder/outfielder Christopher Morel to a one-year deal, adding versatility and depth at first base.
The Miami Marlins have signed infielder/outfielder Christopher Morel to a one-year major league deal, expected to be finalized soon.
The 26-year-old, who previously played for the Cubs and Rays, will likely play first base for Miami, a new position for him.
Morel hit 42 home runs in 854 plate appearances with the Cubs from 2022 to 2023 but struggled with a high strikeout rate and saw his production decline with the Rays in 2024–25, posting a .208/.277/.355 line.
After being non-tendered, he chose a return to MLB over interest from Japanese teams.
The low-cost contract, believed to be near the league minimum, reflects the Marlins’ strategy of low-risk, high-upside moves.
The signing fills a roster need at first base and adds versatility, though his long-term fit remains uncertain.
