Wendle has been held out of the lineup all week, and it appears the Marlins got tired of waiting and would rather utilize the roster spot with an active player. 

The thirty-two-year-old has appeared in 95 games for the Marlins this season, slashing .258/.297/.366, with three home runs, 31 RBIs, 12 stolen bases and 26 runs scored.

The Marlins signed Joey Wendle this past April to a one-year deal, with a mutual option for 2023, at $4.55 million.
