ST. PETERSBURG — Mike Stanton was scratched from the lineup on Saturday night due to a right eye infection.

 

The 21-year-old Marlins right fielder took batting practice, but afterwards, he spoke with manager Edwin Rodriguez.

 

Stanton was set to be the designated hitter against the Rays, but he was replaced by Jose Lopez.

 

The eye issue has bothered him for at least a few days.

 

“After BP, I talked with him,� Rodriguez said. “He said that his right eye was bothering him. Seeing the ball was a little bit blurry. He’s not 100 percent, especially the middle-away pitch.�

 

– Joe Frisaro

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, that explains some things...

Edwin punched him in the face to scare the team.

They played softball but w/e.

Maybe they should let the wives play for their husbands tonight. Might have a better chance that way.

Could be a blessing in disguise. We may not want to witness what happens tonight.

Bloop hit double....

Ok just finished supper, DAMN! We're down 1-0 but hey Damon got a double and that's career double number 500!

I can't see anything should LoMo have caught that?

 

Staats is going nuts over Damon.
