The Marlins have reinstated catcher from the 60-day injured list, . Rather than add him back to the active roster Brantly is out of minor league options and thus cant simply be sent to Triple-A Jacksonville Miami has designated the veteran catcher for a signment. Brantly, 36, appeared in three games for the Fish back in April, going 3-for-7 at the plate. It was a brief run back in the big leagues, but Brantlys stay in the majors was extended because he suffered a lat strain during that quick call-up. He wound up needing a stint on the 60-day injured list, so what may have been a weeklong Kansas City Royals Jersey stay on the roster wound up stretching into more than two months of major league service time for the journeyman backstop. Brantly has appeared in parts of 10 major league seasons but has just 141 games under his belt. Hes a career .226/.286/.323 hitter in the big leagues and carries a .266/.324/.390 batting line in 2743 Triple-A plate appearances spread acro s parts of 13 seasons. The Marlins have five days to trade Brantly, place him on outright waivers or release him. Hes likely to pa s through waivers unclaimed and would then have the right to reject a minor league a signment or accept an a signment back to Jacksonville, where hed continue filling a depth role.
