Three days ago, the Marlins designated reliever Austin Brice for assignment, to make room for recently signed outfielder Corey Dickerson. Today, they traded him to the Boston Red Sox for shortstop Angeudis Santos.
Brice was initially chosen in the ninth round of the draft by Miami, back in 2010. After rising through the system to make his major league debut for the Marlins in 2016, they traded him to the Cincinnati Reds with Luis Castillo and Zeek White for Dan Straily.
After allowing 12 runs in 14 innings for Miami during his first look, Brice pitched 70 innings for the Reds over the following two campaigns.
