One of the best things to aid the Miami Marlins and the National League for the 2020 season is the addition of one more player on the now 26-man roster. The rule, which goes into effect this coming spring, allow the Marlins one extra hitter on the roster and a maximum of 13 pitchers on the staff.
Carrying 13 pitchers is nothing new to the Marlins, as the organization has done that over the past few seasons. Bringing in another hitter offers more opportunities for the lowest-scoring team in the National League to have more at-bats and greater opportunities to plate runs more often.
