Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp News Release


JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Miami Marlins right-handed pitcher Freddy Tarnok will begin a rehab assignment for the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp in the club's regular season home finale against the Memphis Redbirds at 2:05 p.m. from VyStar Ballpark. Five Marlins (Griffin Conine, Dane Myers, Connor Norby, Graham Pauley and Tarnok) are currently rehabbing on the Jumbo Shrimp roster.

Tarnok was placed on the injured list on September 6 with a left ankle sprain. The 26-year-old has spent the majority of the season with Jacksonville. In 26 games, including 10 starts, Tarnok is 3-2 with a 3.29 ERA, yielding only 45 hits with 69 strikeouts in 65.2 innings. He has also made five appearances with the Marlins, registering a 1-0 record and 2.45 ERA with 10 strikeouts against only one hit allowed in 7.1 innings.

A native of Brandon, Fla., Tarnok was originally selected by the Atlanta Braves in the third round of the 2017 draft out of Riverview High School (Riverview, Fla.). He made his major league debut for the Braves on August 17, 2022 in Atlanta, throwing 0.2 scoreless innings against the New York Mets.

Atlanta traded Tarnok on December 12, 2022 to the Oakland Athletics as part of a three-team trade that also included the Milwaukee Brewers. He pitched in the Athletics' organization until partway through the 2024 campaign before signing a minor league deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. He concluded the 2024 season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley and signed a minor league deal on January 6, 2025 with Miami.
