BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: August 19
ANALYSIS: Connor Norby is finally making his much-anticipated debut for the Miami Marlins. Norby, who was acquired at the trade deadline in the deal that sent Trevor Rogers to Baltimore, was playing with Miami's Triple-A team in Jacksonville since being traded but was activated by Miami last night and expected to start for the Fish today.
Norby was up for two short stints with Baltimore earlier this season, hitting two home runs and compiling a .188 average across 32 at-bats in a handful of starts. He should have a much better chance of being an everyday starter for Miami for the rest of the season as the Marlins see if Norby has what it takes to be their starting second baseman for 2025.

The 24-year-old had a great year in the minors, slashing .293/.382/.496 across 94 games with 17 home runs, 60 RBI, 78 runs scored, and 13 stolen bases.
He's available in 95% of Yahoo! leagues right now and makes for a compelling pick-up in deeper formats. He has a lot of power for a middle infielder and some speed to swipe bags, too. He could be a sneaky fantasy contributor over the final six weeks.
