Eric Wagaman

27-Year-Old Third Baseman3B
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wagaman opened the season with Double-A Rochester. After posting a .795 OPS in 94 games, he was advanced to Triple-A Salt Lake City where he recorded a .855 OPS in 27 games. Wagaman was called up early in September and played every day for the rest of the season. However, a .673 OPS in 18 games wasn't good enough for the Angels, so they released him. The Marlins signed Wagaman to a major league contract, likely finding appeal in his ability to play all the corner infield and outfield spots. Wagaman puts the ball in play with above average exit velocity, so there is a chance he serves as a super-utility. He has no mixed league allure but could be an end-gamer in NL-only play.

The Marlins signed Wagaman to a one-year contract Friday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wagaman was non-tendered by the Angels last month. The 27-year-old got a cup of coffee with the Halos in 2024, slashing .250/.270/.403 with two homers in 18 games with a .274/.339/.469 line and 17 home runs last year in the minors. Wagaman should have a pretty good chance to make the Opening Day roster as a utility player on a talent-deficient Marlins club.
