The Marlins have released first baseman Matt Mervis and catcher Rob Brantly. Mervis had an exciting start with six home runs in his first 13 games but faced significant strikeout issues, leading to a decline in performance. His struggle continued in the majors, resulting in his removal from the 40-man roster. Brantly experienced a brief major league stint before an injury sidelined him for an extended period. He has not seen significant playing time in the majors since 2013, underscoring his limited impact at the highest level.
Matt Mervis, after a promising start to the season with six home runs in 13 games, struggled significantly, posting high strikeout rates and low hitting averages subsequently.
Rob Brantly, who spent time in the majors earlier this season due to injury, has had a limited major league career, not exceeding 36 plate appearances in any year since 2013.
