Marlins OF Kyle Stowers activated, to make season debut

Miami Marlins All-Star outfielder Kyle Stowers was activated from the 10-day injured list to make his season debut against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday.

The Marlins optioned infielder Deyvison De Los Santos to Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

Stowers, who had been sidelined with a Grade 1 right hamstring strain, finished a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville.

"Everything from the rehab checked out," Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said. "He continued to check the necessary boxes. Certainly, there was a physical component with how he felt, how the hamstring was. He got back-to-back nine-inning games. I think he came out of that feeling like he's in a really good spot physically, and also, I think mentally, now he feels like, ‘OK, I'm over this.'"

Stowers, 28, made a massive leap in production in 2025. He entered the season with a .208 average, six home runs and 35 RBIs in 117 games spread across three major league campaigns, including 67 games with the Baltimore Orioles.

In his first full season with the Marlins, after a 2024 trade, Stowers batted .288 with 25 homers and 73 RBIs in 117 games while earning a spot on the National League All-Star team.
