Jon Berti Stats

Miami Marlins infielder Jon Berti (head) is increasing baseball activities as he is able to tolerate it, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. Berti has been on the concussion injured list since being hit in the back of the head by a pitch three weeks ago. He's been an OK option in deeper formats for his speed this year, as he's slashing .210/.311/.313 with four homers, eight steals, 19 RBI and 35 runs scored over 85 games. There's still no timetable for his return, and he will almost certainly require a rehab assignment before being activated.

Miami Marlins infielder Jon Berti (head) was forced to exit early during Thursday's contest. He was hit in the back of the head and was removed for precautionary reasons. Since then, Berti has been diagnosed with a concussion and placed on the 7-day injured list. In a corresponding move, the Marlins recalled Deven Marrero from Triple-A. He doesn't offer much upside with the bat. Neither does Berti, but at least his speed can be an asset in possibly deep category leagues.
