Photo of the Day: Cameron Maybin reflects on his younger days as a Marlin

Reunions are an opportunity to remember and relive the past -- but at the same time, they force you to reflect on how much things have changed in the intervening years.
On Wednesday, the Marlins signed outfielder Cameron Maybin -- who also spent the 2008-10 seasons with the club -- to a one-year contract. His mom used the occasion to dig up a picture from the past:

That photo was taken during Spring Training of 2008 -- nearly 10 years ago. At the time, Maybin had arrived to the Marlins as part of the blockbuster deal that sent Miguel Cabrera and Dontrelle Willis to the Tigers.
He arrives in 2018 coming off winning the World Series with the Astros and -- at least as notably -- winning free tacos for an entire country.
The times have changed and Maybin has changed right along with them, but one thing hasn't changed. Maybin's still got that smile:
