Yuli Gurriel has made the Miami Marlins 26-man Opening Day roster, according to Marlins general manager Kim Ng. On the Marlins radio broadcast during Sunday’s game against the Washington Nationals, Ng said Gurriel “should be” on the roster when the Marlins begin their regular season against the New York Mets on Thursday. Ng added that shortstop José Iglesias would not make the initial major league roster, but that he would remain with the organization.

Both players were originally signed to MiLB non-roster deals midway through spring training with clauses allowing them to opt out this past Saturday if their contracts weren’t selected to the big league club. Although Iglesias is sticking around for now, he can also opt out on May 1 or June 1 if his opportunity doesn’t arrive by then. Iglesias finished 3-for-15 at the plate in Grapefruit League games.
