MIAMI (AP) — The Miami Marlins and infielder Jean Segura have finalized a $17 million, two-year contract. The deal includes a club option for a third year. Segura, a two-time All Star, batted .277 with a .336 on-base percentage in 98 games last season with the National League champion Philadelphia Phillies. He hit .214 for Philadelphia in the postseason. Segura, 32, adds infield depth to a Marlins team that hasn’t been competitive recently in the tough NL East.
