Ramp Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 nothing too shocking... did Logan even get a chance this spring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanks1212 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hopefully Kensing will pitch well in AAA and come up and help out of the bullpen sometime this year. With Lopez down, looks like the backup IF spot (assumming there's only one) will come down to Amezaga and Andino. Methinks if the organization wants to move Andino to 2B he'd be better served learning the position in the minors for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriCountyFish Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 did Logan even get a chance this spring? I've seen him pitch a couple times this spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 they need to send Randy Messenger down too. Marlins2003 had him pegged last season as not ML-ready, and he still doesn't appear to be. Resop looks promising however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Messenger should've been sent to minor league camp before Kensing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 The infield is pretty much set now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skully Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I thought they'd give Kensing a longer look.. But I totally agree on Messenger. He needs some more time in the minors. I'd take Resop on the Opening Day roster though... And I also agree that if they want Andino to play 2b, they should groom him in the minors for it.... So, with that said, it looks like Amezaga is our backup IF, assuming Uggla and Hanley are starting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty4 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Resop looks good so far.......he has really worked hard in the off season....arm feels good....less bulk up top and more on the bottom half....thanks to VELOCITY....and his trainer Derek Touchette over in Naples.....

bollostar Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hmm, I wonder if Resop will get a chance to close for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty4 Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 That would suit him just fine....he loves the pressure when the game is on the line.....right now he is not handling the pressure of not knowing if he makes the 25 man roster or not very well...can't sleep....I tell him every day to work harder today than yesterday and harder tomorrow than today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyggyMarlin Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Yeah Messenger really looked bad today...I would rather replace him with one of the young starting pitchers that doesnt make the rotation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy42Jack0 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Yeah Messenger really looked bad today...I would rather replace him with one of the young starting pitchers that doesnt make the rotation i think that is exactly what will happen too...mess looked like a mess today...and resop should get that lost spot if it comes down to him and mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish4Life Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Messenger should've been sent to minor league camp before Kensing. Totally agree.... guys flat out stinks.. He has good stuff, just needs to find another pitch to go with that live fastball.. I would move him to AAA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2003 Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Everyone knows what I think is wrong with Messenger so I won't repeat myself but I'm amazed Kranitz or someone can't fix it. It may just be that with so many pitchers in camp there isn't enough time to tear down his delivery and rebuild it in thirty days so he'll go to Albuquerque or maybe Carolina and do it there. I still think he has the potential to be an excellent RP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Resop taking the setup man role at some point during the regular season and possibly getting a chance at closing if Borowski bombs. Just tell the man to get some sleep and keep it frosty.

DoCRoN Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 3/21/06 Optioned RHP Logan Kensing to Triple-A Albuquerque; Reassigned RHP Buddy Carlyle, RHP Eddie Gaillard, INF Mickey Lopez and INF Scott Seabol to Minor League camp. Anyone know what/where "Minor League Camp" is? Do any of those guys have a chance to make the squad down the road, or are they resigned to the minors only?

Hotcorner Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I'm wondering now if Carlos Martinez might not make the rotation also... He's been really impressive by the sound of things. He was the closer last year for the Single A Jupiter Hammerheads & put up good numbers. I know it's a big jump but so far in spring training he's thrown 5 2/3 innings & has allowed only 1 hit.

I agree. He's the 8th inning right now, unless they throw the losers of Nolasco/Johnson/Olsen SP battle in the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoCRoN Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Anyone see Gaillard pitch this spring? I know he was reassigned to Minor League camp, but how did he look?

He went to camp with the Rockies and had a knee injury that ended his season. His previous season in Japan was cut short due to elbow surgery. Prior to THAT he was a pretty solid closer from what I understand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
