Davis signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis posted a .685 OPS while appearing in 34 games for the Marlins before requiring season-ending right meniscus surgery. He should be healthy heading into spring training and will compete for a reserve outfielder role, but the 31-year-old will more likely than not start the season at Triple-A Jacksonville.

Davis (knee) was activated from the 60-day injured list and opted for free agency on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Davis was outrighted to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday and unsurprisingly went unclaimed on waivers. He'll likely land a minor-league deal with a team this offseason.

The Marlins sent Davis (knee) outright to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis has been out since early July after undergoing surgery on his right knee. The 31-year-old resumed running toward the end of the season, but he is now set to return to the minors and will have to earn his way back onto Miami's 40-man roster in 2024.

Davis (knee) did some running on the field Monday, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's a big step for Davis as he works his way back from right meniscus surgery which he underwent in early July. The speedy outfielder won't make it back before the end of the season but hopefully should be able to have a relatively normal offseason.

Davis (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move clears a spot for Johnny Cueto's return from the 60-day IL. Davis underwent right meniscus surgery last week and there's a good chance his season is over.

Marlins manager Skip Schumaker said Thursday that Davis (knee) will be sidelined 3-to-6 months, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis underwent surgery Thursday after damaging his right meniscus while trying to make a diving catch Tuesday against the Cardinals. He had been in line for regular starts in center field with Jazz Chisholm (oblique) landing back on the injured list Monday, but Davis can now probably be ruled out until at least mid-September. The 31-year-old was slashing .244/.307/.378 with two home runs and one stolen base through 34 major-league games this season.

An MRI revealed a meniscus injury in Davis' right knee, and he will undergo surgery Thursday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis doesn't have a torn meniscus, but his injury is apparently still severe enough to warrant surgery. His recovery timeline is unclear at the moment, but it's very possible the procedure puts an early end to Davis' season. Should he miss the rest of the year, Davis will close 2023 with a .244/.307/.378 slash line alongside two homers and 10 RBI through 103 plate appearances.

Davis was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right knee sprain, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had been set to undergo an MRI, and given the sprain diagnosis that test evidently revealed some damage. It's unclear at this point as to the severity. Garrett Hampson is taking Davis' spot on the roster and Dane Myers is in center field Wednesday.

Davis (knee) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though X-rays returned negative on Davis' right knee after he exited Tuesday's 15-2 win, he'll get at least one day off to tend to the injury. Dane Myers will step in as the Marlins' starting center fielder in place of Davis, who is expected to play regularly when healthy with Jazz Chisholm (oblique) on the 10-day injured list.

X-rays came back negative on Davis' right knee following his departure from Tuesday's win over the Cardinals, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Davis had to be carted off the field after falling hard on a diving catch attempt in the top of the fifth inning, but it sounds like it was just a scare. The 31-year-old is poised for regular starts in center field, if his health cooperates, with Jazz Chisholm (oblique) now back on the injured list. Davis is currently considered day-to-day with a right knee contusion.
