Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins in January of 2026.
Back with Marlins on minors deal
The Marlins re-signed Tinoco (elbow) to a minor-league contract Jan. 5.
Analysis
Tinoco is recovering from UCL surgery and will miss the entire 2026 season, so it's likely a two-year minor-league deal. The right-handed reliever made 20 appearances for Miami in 2025, posting a 5.12 ERA and 10:8 K:BB over 19.1 innings while notching four saves.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2016
Tinoco, a 29-year-old journeyman who owns a 3.70 ERA and 1.26 WHIP over 80 career MLB appearances, pitched for four different organizations in 2024. The right-hander was unable to find success with the Rangers, Royals or Cubs, but dominated after the Marlins claimed him off waivers in late-July. Tinoco compiled a remarkable 2.03 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 30:5 K:BB across 26.2 innings with Miami and quickly moved into a high-leverage role, securing three saves and five holds over the final two months. The Venezuelan native attributed his newfound success to his increased usage of a slider (.097 BAA) that he revamped while pitching overseas in Japan in 2023. If Tinoco continues to throw it as his primary offering (52.3 percent pitch usage in 2024), his chances of opening 2025 as the Marlins' closer may increase. For now, he'll simply try to prove that 2024 was no fluke and compete for a high-leverage role during spring training.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Marlins could listen to offers
The Marlins could listen to offers for Tinoco before the summer trade deadline, Jim Bowden of The Athletic speculates.
Analysis
Tinoco is one of several relief arms who could generate interest before the deadline. However, it's worth noting that the right-hander landed on the 15-day injured list with a forearm strain earlier this month, and if he doesn't recover quickly, then the Marlins might not be able to trade him at all. The six-year veteran owns a 5.12 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 20 appearances this season.
