The Miami Marlins continue to look for ways to improve their lineup, now turning their focus to former Houston Astros slugger Yuli Gurriel. Gurriel is a two-time World Series champion and Gold Glove award winner for his defensive prowess in the infield. He would be a great addition for the Marlins, who are seeking both strong offense and experience.Gurriel's best season came in 2021, when he led the National League in batting average with an astounding .319. He was an offensive threat and was critical to the Astros' success. 2021 was also the year he won his Gold Glove award. He did not have as good of a season in 2022, but is more than capable of bouncing back.Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported on the Marlins' continued pursuit of Yuli Gurriel on Twitter.Barry Jackson@flasportsbuzzMy pal and colleague @CraigMish told me couple hours ago that Marlins have had conversations with Astros free agent Yusiel Gurriel, who could potentially share time with Cooper at first.

They all agree the team needs to add some offense, but aren't confident the former Astros star is the right way to go. There are fears that his best days in the MLB are already behind him and the Marlins will regret the deal.Persecuted Paul :/@RitzoSexoCool!

Between the New York Mets, Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, there is just no room for the Marlins. Small improvements like the addition of Yuli Gurriel will help the lineup, but not enough. However, there is no reason not to pursue having the best roster possible.MIA Sports House@Sports_OT_HouseIf #Marlins do end up signing Gurriel I think this is a GREAT move for Miami.

Their payroll and inability to keep all these developed stars together is the biggest hurdle they have to overcome. Signing Yuli Gurriel won't solve all their problems, but it is a step in the right direction.⚽️~MÃGGUEL~⚽️@Tequila__MikeMarlins gotta do better.

He would bring that same energy to a very young Marlins team that could greatly benefit from his guidance.If his offense is able to return to his 2021 form, he could be a darkhorse candidate for a Silver Slugger award with the Marlins next season.
