JUPITER ? The Florida Marlins today announced the following roster moves: infielder Jason Stokes optioned to triple-A Albuquerque; right-handed pitcher Yorman Bazardo and outfielder Eric Reed optioned to double-A Carolina; left-handed pitcher Chad Bentz, right-handed pitcher J.B. Miadich, catcher Jason Hill and outfielder Matt Padgett all re-assigned to minor league camp. The announcement was made by Senior Vice President and General Manager Admin Beinfest.

 

Today?s moves leave the Marlins with 50 players in Major League camp.

 

Additional information on the players involved in today?s transactions is available on the team?s official website, www.floridamarlins.com.

I think it was a good decision to move Stokes up to AAA. He's gonna be able to hit a whole lot of homeruns in the hitter-friendly PCL, and hopefully he'll increase his trade value come deadline time.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Looks like Bentz wont make MLB roster

Damn, I was hoping Bentz would make the team.

i couldnt agree more. Stokes is a good player, he has great potential.

I too am surprised Bentz was moved so quickly to the minor league camp but that may be with a mind to get him more work.

Jorgenson is keeping himself out of Minor League camp over some pretty good players...

 

Impressive to say the least.

It looks like Jorgy is still a Marlin :arms

 

catcher Jason Hill

I was hoping Bentz would make it as well. I suppose his 9.84 ERA didn't cut it. :plain
