When Magneuris Sierra rejoined the Miami Marlins after a season with the Triple-A New Orleans Baby Cakes, expectations were likely low after a lukewarm start to his Marlins career in 2018.
In 54 games last year, Sierra hit just .190 with three doubles, six walks, and 39 strikeouts. He was also less than overwhelming defensively, with four errors in 106 chances. Understandably, Sierra split most of the 2019 campaign between the Baby Cakes and the Double-A Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp. In 129 combined games, he hit .275/.312/.387 with 33 stolen bases, nine triples, and seven homers.
