RF - Stanton

 

SP1 - Nolasco

SP2 - Eovaldi

SP3- LeBlanc

SP4- Alvarez

SP5 - Slowey

 

Bench - Kearns, Dobbs

 

Bullpen - Rauch, Cishek, Dunn, Webb, Qualls

 

Will start year on DL: Silverio, Mahoney, Morrison, Mathis, Ceda

 

Unconfirmed but likely making team:

 

Skipworth, Ruggiano, J. Maine, Ramos

 

That leaves 2 spots to go between Valaika, Valdez, Coghlan, and Hernandez

Kearns did a decent job overall when coming off the bench last year, I don't think his Spring meant much. He was likely going to make the team from the start.

 

.304 AVG .458 OBP as a sub last year.

 

Guess well see with him. Dont really get keeping John Maine either. You dont always need a long man. Whatever.

 

Did not think that Leblanc, Slowey, AND Maine would make the team.

You're right, the Nats probably don't need a long reliever...

 

THIS team almost certainly needs a long reliever.

According to Frisaro on the Marlins site, they're leaning towards keeping both cogs and gorkys, surprising but interesting, does this mean only six relievers? Hmmm...

 

And, just a thought looking at our potential opening day roster, anyone notice how many veterans we have? Im just saying, considering how everyone swears we're a team of no name rookies .... Pierre polanco kotchman Valdez Kearns Diaz qualls Maine slowey Rauch Dobbs ... not exactly a group of kids there. And while they aren't superstars they also aren't nameless to anyone more than a casual fan. Nothing but an ironic observation though.

^This.

The team needs a long reliever and will certainly carry seven relievers.

I do not think Kearns is a lock to make this team.

 

JCRMarlinsbeat Miami Marlins: Roster about set after Kotchman, Kearns, Qualls informed they made team goo.gl/fb/Hz2lg

Well, what do I know?!?

 

Before this, I thought you knew everything.

 

 

I guess I'm human? Weird.

That starting lineup, starting rotation, bullpen, coaches, team, waterboy, everything...it just makes me sad. Usually this doesn't happen until midway through June.

We have a waterboy?

I'll have game used Kevin Slowey jockstraps on eBay within the hour.

Maine, Ramos, and lastly Skipworth unless replaced by Hill or Olivo

 

 

Updated. There's 30 guys left in camp and 5 will start on the DL, so that's obviously our 25. The only question is if we find a replacement for Skipworth. If the season started today, he's the backup catcher. They're pretty much just using the last couple days to find a better replacement.

Expect a Loogy to be picked up as well, but who would be the odd man out...Qualls?

 

I don't think qualls can be cut yet, that article xx b something thing in the cba probably protects him here.
