PHILADELPHIA — In a slew of roster moves, the red-hot Miami Marlins announced that outfielder Griffin Conine has returned from rehab and been reinstated from the 60-day injured list leading up to the team’s final week of the 2025 regular season.

Conine, 28, started in right field on Opening Day but last appeared in a game on April 19, after sustaining a dislocated left shoulder against the Philadelphia Phillies while attempting a headfirst slide into second base.

Initially, the team feared Conine would miss the remainder of the season, but he quickly attacked rehab and began a rehab assignment on Sept. 7 with Triple-A Jacksonville.

In nine games with the Jumbo Shrimp, Conine slashed .292/.514/.583 with one double, two home runs, nine RBIs, 11 walks and nine strikeouts.

After concluding their three-game series against the Phillies, the Marlins will finish the regular season at loanDepot park with a three-game set against the New York Mets

ADDITIONAL MOVES

Right-handed pitcher Edward Cabrera was reinstated from the 15-day injured list; right-handed pitcher Adam Mazur and outfielder Joey Wiemer were optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville; and outfielder Derek Hill returned from rehab, was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and designated for assignment.
