fauowls44 Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Link Bump sent down, Perisho designated for assignment. About time. I don't know if Bentz and De Los Santos are the answer, but I know that Bump and Perisho weren't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer_fran Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 What the f*** is the FO thinking? Riedling and Smith have been twice as bad as Bump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshFish Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Looks like Bump is being punished for throwing that DP ball away. 799348[/snapback] I agree. And I don't like this at all Bump should be with the club and Travis sent down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeFish Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Could it be Bump lost out to Smith in the Big Club because Smith was a starter with Atlanta before and Bump starting has not been regular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Smith has only had 2 "bad" games in which he has allowed more than 1 run. http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/...4000&statType=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Could it be Bump lost out to Smith in the Big Club because Smith was a starter with Atlanta before and Bump starting has not been regular? 799367[/snapback] Maybe. Gosh knows Reidling can't get the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeFish Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Another thing I also think about is allowing the Marlins to start Bump at AAA, keep an extra man in the bullpen, then recalling Bump in case they need a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eadearmas Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 OK, this is BS... Bump has been doing a bad job lately, but he was doing great since the start of the season. Perisho, even though I hate the guy, had nice numbers. It is not fair to get rid of guys in the bullpen because our bats are struggling. If that's the case, then Mike Lowell and Paul Lo Duca should also be designated for assignment... :thumbdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeFish Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Cant wait to see Bentz pitch. 799374[/snapback] yup, I think these moves are being made to set up future scenarios for July and August. Whether that be trades, callups, or signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Perisho, even though I hate the guy, had nice numbers. 799373[/snapback] No he didnt, he had the most decieving numbers in baseball ERA and record wise. His walks to IP ratio was horrendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SongInTheAir Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 bump>smith hopefully nate takes a few days or weeks in AAA and straightens out a bit and becomes as good as i know he can be bentz was pitching well in the minors, and de los santos was rather solid with milwaukee and should be able to pitch long relief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the club called off the big move for a few more weeks and needed some scapegoats to look seem they are working on the problem. Even the best of bullpens are a believable scapegoat to fans.

Admin Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 RotoWorld's Take Matt Perisho - R - Marlins Marlins designated LHP Matt Perisho for assignment. Perisho had a 1.93 ERA, but he wasn't of much use as a specialist with lefties hitting .346 against him. Righties were at .130. Since he did just fine against lefties last year, there's a good chance he'll be claimed on waivers. Jun. 7 - 5:57 pm et Nate Bump - R - Marlins Marlins optioned RHP Nate Bump to Triple-A Albuquerque. If not for Ismael Valdez's injury, the Marlins would have dumped Bump despite a great spring. Now they're demoting him even though he has a 3.51 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP. Last year, he had a 3.57 ERA in 68 innings as a reliever. He hasn't been one of the Marlins' problems, and he deserves better treatment. Jun. 7 - 5:55 pm et Chad Bentz - R - Marlins Marlins purchased the contract of LHP Chad Bentz from Triple-A Albuquerque. Bentz, who had a 5.86 ERA in 27 2/3 innings for the Expos last season, had allowed one run in 11 innings since moving up to Albuquerque. At best, he'll be an adequate lefty specialist. Jun. 7 - 5:52 pm et Valerio De Los Santos - R - Marlins Marlins purchased the contract of LHP Valerio De Los Santos from Single-A Jupiter. Six days after he makes his season debut? This looks like a terrible idea. De Los Santos had missed a year due to his latest shoulder problem, and he hasn't looked useful since the first half of 2003. Little should be expected.

TimeWrecker Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 YYYEESSS!!!!! BUMP IS GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (even if he is still in AAA) YESSSS!!!! EDIT: I cant wait to see how the new guys perform.. lets hope we can see one step up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mave Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Glad to see Perisho sent down. But, I'm not too crazy about replacing Bump with Valerio De Los Santos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Just thinking... it's very odd that Perisho got sent down now when a second southpaw in the pen could allow Matt to face more righties. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyMountainMarlin Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Glad to see Perisho sent down. But, I'm not too crazy about replacing Bump with Valerio De Los Santos. 799392[/snapback] Same here. BTW, Perisho didn't get sent down, he is out. Its good to see Jack and the FO showing that we expect performance and no screwups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butchy Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 someone should give butchy an apology butchy :notworthy 799364[/snapback] Thanks Teal - I was starting to doubt what I heard also. I saw De Los Santos pitch 3 times in Jupiter. He didn't impress. He had one good inning where he struck out 2 and even in that inning the "A" ball players he faced swung at bad pitches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
