Miami Marlins Overhaul Bullpen as George Soriano Gets Demoted for Declan Cronin: Performance Comparison
The Miami Marlins are once again shuffling their bullpen, this time demoting righty relief pitcher George Soriano due to his poor performance. Soriano's ERA skyrocketed to 10.29 this season, making him a liability for the team. In his place, 26-year-old Declan Cronin, known for his control issues and unimpressive stats, has been brought back to the team.
By the Numbers- Soriano debuted last season with a 3.81 ERA/4.37 FIP, and this season he has a 10.29 ERA/7.63 FIP.
- Cronin had a 9.00 ERA/7.80 FIP last season, improving to a 1.69 ERA/3.58 FIP this season.
The constant shuffling of the bullpen may not address the root issue of needing higher upside relievers from the start.
What's NextThe Marlins will be looking to see if Cronin can step up and provide stability to the struggling bullpen as they aim for improvement.
Bottom LineThe Miami Marlins' decision to demote Soriano in favor of Cronin reflects their urgent need to address their bullpen issues, showcasing a willingness to make changes in pursuit of better performance.
