Looking through the Minor League Transactions BA posted for Feb 12-March 11, 2 moves by the Marlins surprised me to some degree:

XZavion Curry DFA'd from the 40 man roster. Of course, the Guardians did the same last year.
Deyvison DeLosSantos optioned out already. His PLUS power and PLUS strikeouts may or may not balance in favor of a major league career.

Also of note, Oscar Mercado, another one of our 1 year wonder OFs, is still moving around, signed by the Phillies; to a minor league contract

Condon sustains broken wrist, optimistic about recovery timeline

SURPRISE, Ariz. --The Rockies’ top prospects will take the field Sunday for their Spring Breakout game against the White Sox at Camelback Ranch, but the lineup will not include the system's top-ranked position player.

Charlie Condon, selected third overall in last year’s Draft after a record-smashing career at the University of Georgia and signed to a $9.25 million bonus, sustained a left wrist injury on Tuesday while diving to make a catch against the Athletics in his first Minor League game of the spring.

After undergoing tests, Condon -- MLB Pipeline's No. 29 prospect overall and the No. 2 prospect in the Colorado system -- was diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of his left wrist on Friday. More precisely, it’s a radial styloid process fracture.Charlie Condon, selected third overall in last year’s Draft after a record-smashing career at the University of Georgia and signed to a $9.25 million bonus, sustained a left wrist injury on Tuesday while diving to make a catch against the Athletics in his first Minor League game of the spring.

After undergoing tests, Condon -- MLB Pipeline's No. 29 prospect overall and the No. 2 prospect in the Colorado system -- was diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of his left wrist on Friday. More precisely, it’s a radial styloid process fracture.

Chris Forbes, the Rockies’ director of player development, said that there is no ligament damage and no surgery will be necessary. The plan is for Condon to wear a splint on the wrist for four weeks, then begin strengthening it, and at the six-week mark, resume baseball activities.

“It’s probably the best-case scenario,” Forbes said, “in the sense that we knew it was a fracture and we were hoping it was a non-displaced fracture, and that was confirmed this morning. The ligament damage was what we were hoping to avoid, and we did.”

Last season, Condon hit .180 with a .518 OPS, one home run, 11 RBIs, and four stolen bases in 25 games with High-A Spokane after being drafted, while dealing with a bone spur on his right ring finger.

The third baseman/outfielder hadn't appeared in a Cactus League game this spring, but took on Major League pitchers in intersquad matchups.

When he received the diagnosis, Condon was relieved.

“I found out that it was fractured the same day,” Condon said. “Hearing that today, that it’s nothing but a small fracture -- honestly, it’s about as good as it gets as far as a broken bone goes. It was a big-time relief.

“It kind of gives me a little bit of a path of where and when I’ll be back.”

Condon is itching to get back on the field, particularly after his struggles at the plate while he played through injury in 2024.

With the type of power numbers he put up at Georgia, launching 37 home runs in 231 at-bats and slugging 1.009 last year, hopes were as high as his draft slot that he would be a monster at the plate, particularly with hitter-friendly Coors Field beckoning.

Although his pro career didn’t begin like he had hoped, and he’s now faced with another injury recovery, Condon said he’s unfazed.

“I feel like I don’t have to prove anything to anyone,” Condon said. “I know who I am, I know what I’ve done and I know what I’m capable of doing in the future.”
