Scott Olsen, Yusmeiro Petit, Vargas (if u wanna call him a prospect), Josh Johnson, Volstad, Tankersley, Thompson, Marceaux, Bowyer, Resop, Allison, Tucker, West, Anibal

 

did I miss anyone? Even though i'd gladly trade some of them for some hitting, that is a VERY impressive list

Logan Kensing, Chris Mobley, Jose Garcia, Harvey Garcia, Jesus Delgado, Carlos Martinez, Adam Bostick, Nic Ungs, and Lincoln Holdzkom. Yea, but it looks like the fo doesnt think we have enough...

I just hope these guys are true Marlins pitchers- meaning they can step in and bat cleanup any given day.

We also got Scott Tyler from the Twins for Castillo, but I don't know how good he is. I guess you could also add Messenger, since you said Resop.

 

Oh, and Harvey Garcia plays 2B.

I think your confusing him with Kris Harvey

Does this sound about right?

isnt Josh Johnson more of a 3-4?

Tank's probably going to be reduced to specialist status given his plus breaking ball, but durability issues.

 

I think you're overrating Vargas and Allison, while underrating West, and Holdzkom and Ungs are probably lost in the rule V

Do we even have room for all those guys in our minor league system? That's a list of 25 pitchers. Add in journeymen (guys we'll need for callups) in AAA, some guys we don't know much about that were drafted last year or the year before, and some guys that are just in our system... a few will make the big league roster. What do we do with the rest? Seems like we should trade 2-3 of them for some hitters.

Thats what I've been wondering. :blink: Also nice board guys I just registered here yeasterday.

Yes its called the Florida Marlins, 5/6 on that list at least will make the 25 man roster.

where will Gaby fit into that list, or where do you all think? Middle of the rotation?

We also got Scott Tyler from the Twins for Castillo, but I don't know how good he is.

 

Scott T. had an outstanding season in Low A which earned him a spot on the Twins 40-man roster. He wasn't bad at High A Fort Myers, but the wasn't really outstanding overall either. He had some very good games, but the consistancy was lacking. Some of the guys questioned how he got on the 40-man in the first place, but...as I said, he was coming off an outstanding season in Low A.

 

On the whole I'd say he earned a promotion to AA. He'll got into the system and maybe turn into something for you guys. He can start or he can pitch middle relief. Big kid though, might actually be able to swing a stick if he needs to.

Next years minor league & marlins rotations can be:

 

Marlins:

Willis

Vargas

Moehler

Olsen

Johnson

 

AAA:

Yusmero Petit

Raynel Pinto

Ricky Nolasco

Adam Bostick

Nic Ungs

 

AA:

Anibal Sanchez

Paul Mildren

Jose Garcia

Scott Tyler

James Russ / ?

 

High A:

Gaby Hernandez

Jeff Allison

Craig Molldrem

Allen Baxter

Rick Vandenhurk

 

Low A:

Chris Volstad

Aaron Thompson

Ryan Tucker

Sean West

Jacob Marceaux

With what we have so far, I say you switch Bostick for Anibal Sanchez and we have our starting rotations in the majors and AAA.

ya i agree you gotta put Sanchez above AA to start the year and if Petit pitches well in ST theres no way i dont see him making the MLB roster I would also think about starting Volstad at High A and Gaby Hernandez at AA

is Hutchinson still alive? what'd he have Tommy John? or was it his shoulder?

TJ

The biggest surprise out of all of them could be Pinto, if he can work on the control. Guy has loads of potential.

had a good outing in Venezuela this weekend

After Gaby Hernandez had his struggles this year at High A, and given the stack of pitching talent it would be prudent to hold off and have him remain at High A (Jupiter). Volstad should start the year at Low A (Greensboro) as Vargas and Tankersley did this year to see how he gets on. No point having their confidence shot by moving them up too quick.
