Chi Chi González News
Miami Marlins pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez had his contract selected by the big club on Thursday while left-handed pitcher Devin Smeltzer has been designated for assignment in a corresponding move. The veteran right-hander has largely struggled at the big-league level, posting a 5.66 ERA and minuscule 4.1% K-BB% across 68 appearances, 52 of which have been starts. Gonzalez has made three starts with the Marlins' Triple-A affiliate in 2023, working to a 4.54 ERA but also striking out just 12.3% of the batters he's faced across six starts. Smeltzer posted a 6.89 ERA in six appearances (one start) with the Marlins this season spanning 15 2/3 innings of work.
The Miami Marlins agreed to terms with right-hander Chi Chi Gonzalez on a minor-league deal on Tuesday. The deal includes an invitation to spring training next year. The 30-year-old pitched for the Minnesota Twins, Milwaukee Brewers and New York Yankees in 2022, going a combined 7-5 with a 5.87 ERA (5.55 FIP), a 1.52 WHIP, 15 strikeouts and seven walks in 23 innings over just seven appearances (five starts). At best, Gonzalez will be a fill-in spot starter for the Marlins rotation in 2023. In six major-league seasons with five different teams, Gonzalez has a 5.66 ERA (5.37 FIP), a 1.49 WHIP and a 13.5 percent strikeout rate in 284 2/3 innings pitched covering 68 outings (52 starts).
New York Yankees starting pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez had his contract selected and will start Sunday against the Baltimore Orioles. The 30-year-old right-hander pitched relatively well in the minors before being called up but has struggled in limited major league action this year. He owns a 6.87 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and 12:4 K/BB ratio over 18 1/3 innings (six appearances, four starts).
