Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year contract with the Marlins in May of 2026.
Recalled by Miami
The Marlins recalled Ekness from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Analysis
The move corresponds with the Marlins placing right-hander Eury Perez on the 15-day injured list due to a right gracilis strain. Ekness made his major-league debut out of the Marlins' bullpen in early May, and across six outings he's allowed one run on two hits and five walks while striking out five over 5.1 innings. He also collected his first major-league save May 10 against the Nationals.
