The Miami Marlins will promote prospect Griffin Conine before Monday\'s game against the Colorado Rockies.
Conine is the son of two-time World Series champion Jeff Conine, known to fans as Mr. Marlin and widely considered one of the best players in the team\'s history.
The younger Conine, 27, is enjoying a solid season at Triple-A Jacksonville. The outfielder has 19 home runs and a .825 OPS.
Drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2018, Griffin Conine joined the Marlins organization in 2020 as the player to be named later in a trade that sent Jonathan Villar to Toronto.
