Wallach went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, two runs scored and a walk Thursday against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach drove in a run during the second inning on a single and went deep in the third. The 27-year-old backstop has gone 3-for-12 in spring games and could see substantial playing time at the beginning of the regular season depending on Jorge Alfaro's (knee) health.

Wallach (quadriceps) will start at catcher and bat eighth in Sunday's spring game against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach has been battling the quad injury since Feb. 28 but will make his welcome return to the lineup Sunday. The 25-year-old has a chance to showcase himself while Jorge Alfaro continues to battle knee inflammation, though the team still expects him to be ready for Opening Day.

The Marlins are hopeful that Wallach (quadriceps) will be ready to rejoin the Grapefruit League lineup Sunday versus the Braves, the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach's impending return is a welcome development for the Marlins with top catcher Jorge Alfaro sidelined indefinitely with right knee inflammation. With Alfaro's availability for Opening Day now in peril, Wallach could have the opportunity to step in as the Marlins' No. 1 option behind the plate if health isn't an issue. Non-roster invitee Bryan Holaday could also share catching duties with Wallach if Alfaro is sidelined to begin the season.

Wallach exited Thursday's Grapefruit League game due to a quadriceps injury, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Don Mattingly said Wallach "felt something in his quad" during Thursday's loss to the Astros, which helps explain his removal after three innings. Mattingly said the issue was minor, though he failed to offer up a timetable for Wallach's return, leaving the backup catcher day-to-day. Wallach is 1-for-5 through three games this spring.

Wallach went 3-for-4 with a three-run home run and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach delivered a three-run blast over the fence in left-center during the third inning, He'd been hitless in his previous four games leading up to the series finale but managed to push his RBI total to five while recording his second multi-hit game of the season. The 26-year-old has gone 7-for-41 through 13 games this season for the Marlins.

Wallach was called up by the Marlins on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach has a career .119/.159/.143 line in 15 major-league games and hit just .224/.324/.333 in 44 games for Triple-A New Orleans. He's likely the third catcher behind J.T. Realmuto and Bryan Holaday, though he wouldn't have much fantasy value even in a larger role.

Wallach was sent down to Triple-A New Orleans on Thursday, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach was taken off the 40-man roster in order to make room for J.T. Realmuto, who was reinstated from the paternity list in a corresponding move. Across 34 plate appearances with the Marlins this year, Wallach is hitting just .129/.182/.161 and doesn't provide much fantasy value in any format.

Wallach was called up to Miami on Monday, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Marlins need a second catcher with J.T. Realmuto on the paternity list. Wallach will likely be stuck behind Bryan Holaday and will probably only be up for a short period of time, as Realmuto will be out for at most three games.

Wallach was optioned to Triple-A New Orleans on Tuesday, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach split time with Bryan Holaday behind the plate to start the season, but the 26-year-old could only produce four hits in 31 at-bats (.129 batting average). With J.T. Realmuto returning from the disabled list, Wallach is no longer needed on the big-league roster, so he'll retreat to the minors to act as organizational depth.

Wallach is not in the Marlins' lineup Monday against the Mets, Andre Fernandez of the Miami Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wallach has been the primary catcher for the Marlins while J.T. Realmuto (back) remains on the disabled list. Bryan Holaday will start at catcher Monday, the third time in four games that he's done so. Wallach could be losing his temporary starter role, though that likely won't have much fantasy impact; his light bat is irrelevant in most formats, and J.T. Realmuto is approximately ten days from returning.
