Marte was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Wednesday.
The 27-year-old also lost his spot on the 40-man roster in early June, though he had his contract selected June 19 and has since been in the majors. Marte has made only four appearances in two stints with Miami this year, going 1-for-6 with a walk and two runs.

A 27-year-old utility infielder with three career MLB plate appearances to his name, Marte unsurprisingly didn't attract much attention on the waiver wire after the Marlins booted him off their 40-man roster Thursday. He'll remain in the Marlins organization as a depth piece at Triple-A.

Rotowire
Marte's contract was selected by the Marlins on Thursday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
