June 5, 200917 yr Fredi said it on his post game conference . Also, Nolsaco might replace him in the rotation.
June 5, 200917 yr From the words of Fredi Gonzalez. He also said "Anticipate Ricky Nolasco to start on sunday." Cristhian Martinez to be called up aswell.
June 5, 200917 yr I forgot to keep score on how many times average Joe fans have been more right about Marlins players than their own management. Safe to say this one goes to the board for knowing that Anibal was put into action way too early.
June 5, 200917 yr And people question wonder why the Marlins were/are looking for pitching and considered moving Ross to get it? Occasionally, just occasionally maybe the FO knows just a tad more than the experts here. :banghead
June 5, 200917 yr Ugh, seriously, if you are going to keep a pitcher on a pitch count after two rehab starts with an eye on not fatiguing a pitcher, why not just give him more rehab starts?
June 5, 200917 yr I've said it before, but torn labrums are bad news. Hes also had TJ ssurgery. I play ball with 2 kids who've had labrum surgery and both say they always feel some pain pitching and some days its just unberable. Im really getting tired of Anibal and his injuries. I always here wait till hes back to full strength, well it never happens. I wish the best for him but he drives me nuts.
June 5, 200917 yr Crithian Martinez is the new Lee Gardner, just knockin people out. He either wins or losses every time he pitches
June 5, 200917 yr Honeslty, place him on the 60 day DL, let him rest, and go from there. Have him back in August, or September, hopefully in the Bullpen for the rest of the year.
June 5, 200917 yr i really wonder if this guy will ever come back. right now the only piece that worked out from the trade was hanley and we didnt even give delgado and garcia a chance.

It's going to be difficult to consider Sanchez a long-term starting pitcher from this point onward. The number of pitchers that go on to have successful careers after torn labrums is rather small and there haven't been enough medical advances over the last ten years. I highly doubt Sanchez can be considered a starter at this point. He will have to be given bullpen duty, perhaps a long reliever. If the Marlins are somehow offered any return remotely enticing after his recovery, I think they should take it.
June 5, 200917 yr Anibal Sanchez is an interesting case study. His wife is a doctor, he's not an unintelligent person obviously, and maybe my read is off-base (no pun intended) but time after time it appears the guy is unable to be forthright about his health. I can't figure out if it's desire to pitch outweighing common sense or something pathological, but at some point I would imagine the Marlins have to make a decision about how much they can depend on his devotion to the truth.
June 5, 200917 yr i really hope they dont send martinez down again when nolasco comes back....and martinez was also a starter but i think he might be better in a relief role.
June 5, 200917 yr And people question wonder why the Marlins were/are looking for pitching and considered moving Ross to get it? Occasionally, just occasionally maybe the FO knows just a tad more than the experts here. I really don't think one has to do with the other, to be honest. The bottom line is, the Marlins are willing to trade Cody, Uggla, Cantu, and Hermida if they fall out of contention. Really has nothing to do with getting MLB ready pitching in return.

With over a hundred games to play you can't possibly be serious. The bottomline is they are still in contention and are trying to stay there. Maybe you've given up on the team and the season but obviously the decision-makers haven't.
June 5, 200917 yr Did anyone ever figure that maybe Anibal just isn't good? I've never been big on him. People just seem to be waiting on the second half anibal of 06 to come back.

Maybe you've given up on the team and the season but obviously the decision-makers haven't. Considering our offense isn't anything special either its really hard to imagine us improving in the short term from moving one of our offensive pieces. Even with Anibal down we still have a passable starting 5 (including Nolasco if he gets back into shape) even if its isn't good. But moving an offensive piece is just going to leave us struggling even more to score runs. It's not like we're running out an allstar lineup as is or else we wouldn't have a second basemen batting under .200 in left field. The fact of the matter is, we've gotten plenty of good starts from Johnson, Volstad, and others were our offense hasn't been able to score runs.
June 5, 200917 yr Did anyone ever figure that maybe Anibal just isn't good? I've never been big on him. People just seem to be waiting on the second half anibal of 06 to come back. I've really always accepted anything that Sanchez has been able to give us as token. Why anyone in the organization or out would project him to be in the top 5 in starts on our team is beyond me.
June 5, 200917 yr What a shocker. Knew that he wasn't ready to go. We just have so few options in the minors....
