The team landed Burger from the Chicago White Sox and Josh Bell in a trade with the Cleveland Guardians in an attempt to bolster the offense.
Burger, who is hitting .214 with 25 homers, 52 RBI, 44 runs and a .806 OPS, will provide some pop in the middle of the order. Bell, a first baseman and designated hitter option, is hitting .233 with 11 homers, 48 RBI, 26 runs and a .701 OPS this season.
It's unclear if the Marlins will later do a bell-themed giveaway. Maybe a promotion with Taco Bell. These are free ideas, Marlins' marketing team. You're welcome.
