March 30, 201610 yr #Marlins rotation to open the season: Wei-Yin Chen Jose Fernandez Adam Conley Tom Koehler Jarred Cosart
March 30, 201610 yr Conley earned the spot. Great to see. Dude has lots of potential. Still not done filling out
March 30, 201610 yr #Marlins rotation to open the season: Wei-Yin Chen Jose Fernandez Adam Conley Tom Koehler Jarred Cosart So we have only one starting pitcher that named " Wei-Yin Chen Jose Fernandez Adam Conley Tom Koehler Jarred Cosart " ?!

March 30, 201610 yr So I'm seeing kohler and cosart. Nice you seem surprised, like this wasnt going to happen or something.
March 30, 201610 yr Thought Conley and cosart Conley is there, third. You must have only read the last two?
March 31, 201610 yr Conley at #3 is a bit surprising. Koehler has been a fixture in the rotation for three years now. I would've thought seniority would've gotten him that third spot (although the decision is more likely putting the lefty in the middle of all righties). I like Conley and really wish the best. I'm not sure what we'll get back he's worked his ass off to get to this point and has had the lowest of lows and highest of highs in the minors. Definitely a pitcher to root for.
March 31, 201610 yr Author the decision is more likely putting the lefty in the middle of all righties). I fully believe this is all it is
March 31, 201610 yr Conley was put into the 3 spot in order to boost attendance for the Nationals home opener.
March 31, 201610 yr Conley is most likely #3 so that Koehler has a few more days to heal up the elbow bruise. After the first time through the rotation, the order doesn't even matter.
March 31, 201610 yr Everyone here dislikes Cosart but I think he's going to have a good year. I think the coaches worked with him on his shitty fastball and are helping him learn how to use that high velocity fastball correctly. This post can be quoted in May when he gets sent to AAA.

I don't disliked him.
March 31, 201610 yr I've never disliked Cosart, I'm just still waiting for him to pay up a bet he owes me.
March 31, 201610 yr I don't dislike Cosart I just hope he doesn't throw 80% fastballs like he was doing last year. He definitely has the stuff. I was surprised at Conley getting #3 but I really like that they are putting the lefties in that order.

He's gotta throw 80% fastballs because he only has 2 pitches tho
March 31, 201610 yr I think you meant to quote me [uSER=5078]@pollyvonwog[/uSER] lol. But that means he has to be spot on with his stuff, otherwise hitters will just sit on the fastball. Granted you might pull a Bortolo Colon in his prime and just get away with that crap. Nieves helping him wit that cutter has helped a lot. Just looking at his starts especially the one against the Mets in Spring Training was real nice.
March 31, 201610 yr He's gotta throw 80% fastballs because he only has 2 pitches tho Like we discussed in a post a few days back. I think Benedict and the coaches are teaching him variations of his fastball to where he may end up with something like a 4 seamer, a cutter, and his breaking ball. That would be technically throwing three pitches. Which is a huge improvement on last season. Also you can't sit on a straight fastball every time if it could be a cut fastball coming in.
