5th starter

I think Mattingly was pretty shady on the subject, like the chances of him getting the Saturday start is still pretty low

 

OK,so let's start guessing who's the "NEXT GUY".

 

 

None of those idiots should pitch Saturday. Either one will get torched. I may just pick up the bobble head and then go back home. Wouldn't be worth the massacre that would ensue if Urena pitched.

 

 

On a side note for the pen. Lazo has been doing pretty well since his return. 

Lazo is the spring training surprise of my Marlins franchise in MLB The Show. He's been dominant and he's winning my second lefty role in the pen. Excited to see how he works out in my season.

I have him on my pen in the show. He's pretty decent against lefties in the game. 

 

 

Rotation wise if you send Clemens back down you are brining Nicolino back up....they were on the same schedule; Urena just pitched and would only be on 3 days rest if he is called up to make a start....

The Marlins continue to search for starting pitching on the trade market,writes Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, but the organization also believes that there are better days ahead for lefty Justin Nicolino now that they’ve convinced him to stop throwing his cutter. Nicolino has limped to a 5.17 ERA in 10 starts this season, and while his cutter has indeed graded out as a negative pitch, so too has his four-seamer. From my vantage point, it seems optimistic to expect that change to alleviate the need for rotation help in a significant fashion.

 

So Nico could become a better SP after decrease one of his pitch ? what a logic !?

Because its a bad pitch for him, having another pitch is a negative if you can't use it properly. Now he can focus on the pitches that are useful for him.

In all fairness, reports are the same for Bud Norris. He's become more effective since dropping his change up for his cutter (ironic) and earned his spot back in the rotation. 

 

 

I'd do it. If u get a good enough pitcher back, you wouldn't even need middle infielders.

 

Lol you are something else today. Give away Hech and Dee for who? Liriano? No way. If you're giving away a serviceable SS and Dee for a guy that only plays one every 5 days, he better be great to Elite

Judging by his at bats Hech only "plays" every five days or so too so I'd say it's an even trade off.

Turn off the PS4. 

 

 

Those three hits though....
