Marlins' Jacob Stallings: Goes yard in Marlins debut
Rotowire
Stallings went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Giants.
The Marlins' new starting catcher made an immediate impact in his debut for the team, taking Dominic Leone deep in the seventh inning for a two-run shot to get Miami on the board before bringing home Miguel Rojas with a single in the ninth as part of a three-run rally. Stallings hit a career-high eight homers in 112 games last season for the Pirates, so power hasn't been a big part of his game to date, but the 32-year-old wouldn't be the first backstop to grow as a hitter later in their career if he does keep slugging.

Marlins' Jacob Stallings: Gearing up for Opening Day
Rotowire
Stallings went 1-for-3 with an RBI in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Mets.
The veteran catcher is hitting a lackluster .235 (4-for-17) this spring, but Stallings' spot at the top of the Marlins' depth chart isn't in jeopardy. The 32-year-old's defense will keep him behind the plate most days, and he did post a career-high eight homers and 53 RBI last year for the Pirates before an offseason trade.
Stallings was traded from the Pirates to the Marlins in exchange for Zach Thompson, Kyle Nicolas and Connor Scott on Monday, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
Stallings spent his first six major-league seasons in Pittsburgh, and he appeared in a career-high 112 games during the 2021 season. He hit .246 with eight home runs, 53 RBI and 38 runs last year and appears to be in line to serve as the Marlins' primary catcher in 2022.
