June 9, 200917 yr Ummmmmmm apparently this guy was assigned to the florida marlins from Jupiter and he is on the active roster......did i miss something??
June 9, 200917 yr Author weird......and sorry its Jonathan. He has 5 saves ad a 3.04 era in 23.2 innings for the Gulf Coast Marlins.
June 9, 200917 yr Actually, after looking at it, he is with us. He was a drafted as a SS but became a pitcher last season. As far as I know he's not up here, which would make absolutely no sense.
June 9, 200917 yr Well, according to the Marlins MLB site he's on both the 40-man and Active rosters - but the Active roster has 26 players? Perhaps someone's being sent down? Or someone's having a laugh? Fulton is a 3B/SS turned pitcher with less then adequate MiLB figures. The Marlins MLB site seems a bit funny at the moment - first headline is "West hoping for first MLB win against idol" ! Hmmm...

June 9, 200917 yr his ERA in Jupiter this year is 0.00. of course thats only 4.2 innings. but its still 0.00!
June 9, 200917 yr his ERA in Jupiter this year is 0.00. of course thats only 4.2 innings. but its still 0.00! Just remember, projected over 200 innings thats a 0.00 ERA.
June 9, 200917 yr It must be a typo, he was "assigned". An assignment is when a parent club moves a player between minor league teams or from the major league to minor league level. If he was going to join to the parent club, the current terminology is "called up". Speaking of transactions, Scott Olsen was sent down last night to AAA. He was "assigned" to Potomac Nationals from Washington Nationals.
June 9, 200917 yr Keep in mind that our Rookie League team is called the Marlins (I think) Yes our Gulf Coast League team is the Marlins.
June 9, 200917 yr Author he also has the same number 47 as ricky and it is listed on mlb.com official transactions.

EDIT: Apparently he's been on the DL since May 17th and this is a rehab start, so I don't believe that counts as actually being assigned to AAA.

June 9, 200917 yr You can, on a rehab assignment, which is what Olsen is doing. This sounds right, because Potomac is their A+ team. You'd send him to AAA if he was really struggling, I would think.
June 10, 200917 yr You can, on a rehab assignment, which is what Olsen is doing. I thought you could send them but that it wasn't "assigning them".

Its hard to be good on a team like the Nationals. At this rate Roy Halladay should catch up to them in wins which is pretty pathetic.
June 10, 200917 yr You can, on a rehab assignment, which is what Olsen is doing. I thought you could send them but that it wasn't "assigning them". It is (rehab assignment). It's the same exact thing as being sent down, but for the purpose of getting into game shape instead of the normal reason you assign somebody to a minor leagu team. Like wise, when you return, you are "recalled"
June 11, 200917 yr He pitched another scoreless inning for Jupiter today. How many does that make, 5? If so we should call him up right now.
