Nick Nastrini News: Claimed off waivers by Marlins

The Marlins claimed Nastrini off waivers from the White Sox on Tuesday and optioned him to Triple-A Jacksonville.

Nastrini has struggled mightily at Triple-A Charlotte this season, posting a 7.51 ERA and 48:39 K:BB over 44.1 innings. He also managed just a 7.07 ERA and 26:36 K:BB in 35.2 frames at the big-league level in 2024. However, Nastrini is still just 25 and was a fairly well-thought-of prospect at one time, so the Marlins felt he was worth a waiver claim.
