MIAMI \u2014 Chris Paddack\u2019s time with the Miami Marlins has come to an end.<\/p>\n

According to the Marlins, the club designated veteran right-hander Chris Paddack for assignment Tuesday afternoon ahead of a three-game series against the Baltimore Orioles at loanDepot park.<\/p>\n

In a corresponding roster move, the team recalled right-handed pitcher William Kempner, who will wear No. 71, from Triple-A Jacksonville to add depth to the bullpen.<\/p>\n

The move comes two days after Paddack surrendered six runs in a rocky first inning, including a three-run homer by Bryson Stott of the Philadelphia Phillies.<\/p>\n

After Sunday\u2019s game, Marlins manager Clayton McCullough told reporters that, barring something unforeseen, Paddack would make his next scheduled start, which was set for Friday in the series opener against the Washington Nationals at loanDepot park.<\/p>\n

Drafted in the eighth round of the 2015 MLB Draft by the Marlins, Paddack signed a one-year, $4 million deal in February that included up to $500,000 in performance bonuses. <\/p>\n

His tenure in Miami, unfortunately, was one to forget.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old went 0\u20135 with a 7.63 ERA, the worst among Marlins starters. He logged 30 2\/3 innings, allowing 41 hits, 26 earned runs, six home runs and 10 walks over 585 pitches.<\/p>\n

Miami fell to 0-6 in Paddack\u2019s first six starts this season, marking just the fourth time in franchise history a newcomer has done so, according to MLB.com Marlins beat writer Christina De Nicola.<\/p>\n

McCullough addressed reporters from the Marlins\u2019 dugout before the game and said the decision to release Paddack was performance-based.<\/p>\n

He credited Paddack with being a professional and buying into the team\u2019s initiatives during spring training, ultimately saying the club has better starting options.<\/p>\n

As of Tuesday evening, the Marlins haven\u2019t announced a starter for Friday. <\/p>\n

Two names to watch are left-handers Braxton Garrett and Robby Snelling, Miami\u2019s No. 2-ranked prospect.<\/p>\n

Garrett, 28, who is currently with Triple-A Jacksonville, is working his way back after missing the entire 2025 season following revision surgery with an internal brace on the ulnar collateral ligament in his throwing elbow.<\/p>\n

Snelling, 22, has dominated Triple-A, posting a 1.86 ERA in six games this season for the Jumbo Shrimp.<\/p>\n
