Lombard’s Swagger Powers Marlins’ Future | MLB News

Eighteen-year-old Jacob Lombard, Miami’s first-round draft pick, is crushing it in the minors with swagger and confidence—smacking a two-run homer after narrowly avoiding a pitch that nearly hit him. Hitting .891 OPS with 2 homers and 7 RBIs in just 32 at-bats for the Jupiter Hammerheads, he’s embodying the Lombard family legacy, fueled by his brother George’s example and his dad’s blueprint. The Marlins are watching closely as this rising star builds consistency and poise—perfect prep for the big leagues. Patience pays off: this kid might just be Miami’s next franchise cornerstone.
