Rotowire
Pompey (foot) began a rehab assignment Monday with the Marlins' rookie-level Gulf Coast League affiliate, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.
Pompey opened the campaign at High-A Jupiter and batted .154 across eight games before being shut down in mid-April with a fractured foot.

Pompey should play a few more games in the Gulf Coast League before taking back a full-time role in the Jupiter outfield.
