Players who played for Marlins and Dodgers | MLB Immaculate Grid August 29
Nathan Eovaldi has pitched for both teams during his time in MLB. The 6-foot-2 right-hander was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2008 and made his debut for the team three seasons later. After struggling in LA, Eovaldi was traded to the Marlins in 2013, where he spent the next three seasons. A late bloomer, Eovaldi was not considered a top pitcher until he finished third in Cy Young voting as a member of the 2021 Boston Red Sox.

In 1995, Mexican rookie Ismail Valdez recorded a 3.05 ERA in 197 innings, finishing seventh overall in NL Rookie of the Year Award voting. Over the next decade, Valdez drifted from team to team. In 2004, he was traded to the Florida Marlins, where he posted a 4.89 ERA in two seasons. In 2013, he made his comeback in the Mexican baseball league.
In 2006, young Dominican infielder Hanley Ramirez hit .292/.353/.480 with 17 home runs and 59 RBIs to become the second Rookie of the Year in Marlins history.
Ramirez's .342 batting average won him the NL batting title in 2009. In 2012, he was part of the trade that sent Nathan Eovaldi the other way. Towards the end of his career, his supreme fielding diminished significantly, and he called time in 2019.
