September 1, 200323 yr It seems that in addition to the Conine trade Gerald Williams got called up. It is a snippet from the Marlins MLB article on the trade. (Link) In addition to acquiring Conine, the Marlins have selected the contract of outfielder Gerald Williams from Triple-A Albuquerque. Outfielder Todd Hollandsworth and left-handed relief pitcher Tommy Phelps are expected to come off the disabled list on Monday. I don't think he would be eligible for the playoffs, though I could be wrong.
September 1, 200323 yr Gerald Williams will be an asset. It will be exciting to see how McKeon uses the call-ups!
September 1, 200323 yr yeah happy to see gerald williams get called up. Seems like he was doing pretty well in the minors. He hit for the cycle one game had another where he went deep twice. Can be a good pitch-hitter steal some bases and OF defensive replacement.

He is not going to take the place of any of our starters but he will be an asset. Anxious to see him play some Left Field and maybe as a Center Field sub.
September 1, 200323 yr I have a question. I wasn't here when the trade went down, so is Conine eligible for the playoffs?
September 1, 200323 yr I knew he was getting called up. He is old but is tearing up the minors. I Hope he can do the same here.
September 1, 200323 yr Yes, Conine is eligible for the playoffs. (went down a few minutes before midnight)
