Marlins' Jerar Encarnacion: Sent out from big-league camp

The Marlins optioned Encarnacion to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

The 25-year-old outfielder received the chance to make his big-league debut in 2022 but didn't distinguish himself over his 81 plate appearances for Miami, slashing .182/.210/.338 while striking out at a 39.5 percent clip. He'll likely be in line to spend most of the 2023 campaign at Jacksonville unless injuries to other outfielders open up a more extended opportunity in the majors.
