Marlins Claim Brett De Geus Off Waivers
1 min agoThe Miami Marlins have claimed right-handed pitcher Brett de Geus off waivers. In a corresponding move, the team designated right-handed pitcher Seth Martinez for assignment, who they claimed off waivers last week. De Geus was traded to Pittsburgh earlier this offseason but will return to the Marlins, with whom he spent time earlier in his career. Last season, the 27-year-old spent time with three MLB clubs, including Miami, and logged a cumulative 11 1/3 innings of relief across 13 games. He allowed nine earned runs and held a 4:7 BB:K ratio. Last summer, De Geus logged 39 innings at the Triple-A level to the tune of a 5.31 ERA and a 1.51 WHIP. He tallied just 27 punchouts and served up 14 free passes. Fantasy managers should expect De Geus to compete for a low-leverage relief role during spring training.
