Analysis:
Marisnick -- who progressed to some light jogging over the past two weeks -- underwent arthroscopic surgery in early October to repair the meniscus and clean out loose bodies in his left knee. The talented outfielder struggled with a .183/.231/.248 slash line in 109 major league at-bats in 2013, but displayed an excellent combination of power and speed throughout his time in the minors. Currently expected to begin the season back down on the farm, Marisnick's rehab will be something to monitor heading into the spring as a fully healthy and strong camp could force him into the Marlins' opening day plans.
