Included amongst those seven are two Rookie-level clubs, at the bottom of the minor league pyramid. We looked into the Gulf Coast League’s GCL Marlins earlier this month.
The other Rookie-league team isn’t in the United States at all, but in the Dominican Republic. The DSL Marlins, and the other 46 teams in the DSL are made up of the youngest professional ballplayers in the Western Hemisphere. Which of the Marlins showed enough to graduate stateside in 2020?
Breidy Encarnacion
19-year-old Breidy Encarnacion started seven games for the DSL Marlins, and came into the game in relief in another six.
