Jhan Carlos Mariñez Fuente (pronounced "Yan MArin-yez") (born August 12, 1988) is a Dominican professional baseball pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates of Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played for the Florida Marlins, Chicago White Sox, Tampa Bay Rays, and Milwaukee Brewers.
Mariñez signed with the Florida Marlins as an amateur free agent in 2006. He was called up to the majors for the first time on July 15, 2010.
Mariñez and Osvaldo Martínez were sent to the Chicago White Sox as compensation for the hiring of Ozzie Guillén by the Marlins, as Guillen had one year remaining on his contract with the White Sox. On July 13, 2012, Marinez was called up to the majors. He was outrighted off the roster on September 6, 2013.
Mariñez signed a minor league deal with the Detroit Tigers on November 18, 2013 and was assigned to the AAA Toledo Mud Hens. Along with former Tiger Nate Robertson, he was released from his minor league contract on May 17, 2014 after struggling with his command.
He subsequently signed a minor league contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers and was assigned to the AA Chattanooga Lookouts. In 21 appearances, he was 7–1 with a 4.91 ERA.
On December 31, 2014, he signed a minor league contract with the Tampa Bay Rays.
On May 13, 2016, he was acquired off waivers by the Milwaukee Brewers. He made his Brewers debut on May 22, coming in relief of Chase Anderson, facing the New York Mets. He gave up no hits, walked one and struck out four in two innings of work. He was designated for assignment on May 15, 2017, to create room for Brent Suter who was recalled from AAA.
