In early January, the Phillies dealt minor league reliever Erik Miller, a fourth round draft pick in 2019, to the Giants in exchange for right-hander Yunior Marte.  Marte has been pitching professionally since 2013, spending seven seasons in the Royals minor league system and all of 2021 with the Giants' Triple-A team, before earning a spot in the Giants bullpen in 2022.  In 39 games for the Giants last season, he was 1-1 with a 5.44 ERA over 48 innings pitched.

Marte has been shuttled back and forth to Lehigh Valley often so far this season, with four separate stints with the Phillies including as the 27th man for the April 18th double header against the White Sox.  In nine games through Wednesday, he's the owner of an 11.25 ERA in eight innings pitched.  Marte has been hot or cold, with six scoreless appearances and three appearances in which he allows at least two runs in an inning or less.
