Tue, 11 Jun 2013 12:24:52 -0700 Houston Astros SP Bud Norris and Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco, among others, have been the subject of inquiries from San Francisco Giants people. It doesn't appear that the organization has begun in-depth conversations with either team. Baseball officials who speak regularly with San Francisco's decision-makers say they're looking hard at the trade marker in search of a starting pitcher. Fantasy Tip: A move to the Giants would raise by a bit the fantasy value of either of those hurlers, each of whom pitches for a losing club. San Fran may be able to coax a little better performance from whoever it acquires, too, although both of these pitchers have gotten decent results this season as it is.
Fri, 07 Jun 2013 11:30:54 -0700 Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco is a good possibility to be traded weeks before the trading deadline this summer with SPs Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) and Henderson Alvarez (shoulder) nearing returns. The Baltimore Orioles and New York Yankees seem to be the teams with the most interest in Nolasco. "I think he'd be a great addition for somebody, as a No. 3 or 4 (starter). He's very similar to what Anibal Sanchez was last year. He's not a 1 or a 2. But he's a veteran guy who can go out and spin seven innings, and do it, I think, for a contending team." Fantasy Tip: Most fantasy owners chose to ignore Nolasco because he pitches for the Marlins. Well, he shouldn't be any longer, especially because the chances that he'll be dealt are pretty good. Nolasco has been more dominant this year and pitches in a park that suppresses long balls.
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 10:57:03 -0700 Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco was scheduled to start the first game of his club's doubleheader versus the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday, April 23, but was notified about 2 1/2 hours before game time that he would be starting the nightcap instead, allowing rookie SP Jose Fernandez to pitch the day game. According to manager Mike Redmond, the organization preferred to have the inexperienced Fernandez start during the day, when it'd likely be warmer. Multiple, unnamed sources said the decision came from people above the manager, however, and that Redmond, pitching coach Chuck Hernandez and Nolasco were displeased with and surprised by the directive. Nolasco's name had still been on the lineup card when players began to show up at the ballpark on Tuesday. Fernandez wasn't aware of the alteration until that morning, either. Fantasy Tip: It's not clear if the protocol Spencer cites is widely observed, but it's clear that many in the clubhouse weren't happy. The fantasy implications of this issue are minimal, but it's evidence that the Marlins' front office doesn't have the interests of its personnel in mind and doesn't communicate well, which are surprises to no one. The franchise has a couple of World Series to show for its methods, but its decision-makers only add to a deserved reputation as a cold organization. The environment isn't positive, and it can have an effect on players' production, albeit one difficult to measure. This won't help in the club's eventual pursuit of prized free agents.
Sun, 31 Mar 2013 09:30:44 -0700 The Miami Marlins have revised their pitching rotation as a result of SPs Henderson Alvarez (shoulder) and Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) landing on the 15-day disabled list. SP Ricky Nolasco will start the season opener against the Washington Nationals Monday, April 1. SP Kevin Slowey, who was originally scheduled to be the No. 5 starter, will pitch Wednesday, April 3, and SP Wade LeBlanc will pitch the final game of the series Thursday, April 4. SP Alex Sanabia will start against the New York Mets Friday, April 5, Nolasco will pitch Saturday, April 6, and SP Jose Fernandez will make his MLB debut Sunday, April 7.
Tue, 26 Mar 2013 13:43:43 -0700 Miami Marlins SPs Ricky Nolasco, Nathan Eovaldi, Wade LeBlanc, Henderson Alvarez and Kevin Slowey will make out the team's five-man rotation to start the year.
Thu, 07 Mar 2013 13:01:10 -0800 Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco was informed Thursday, March 7, that he'll be starting the team's opening day game April 1 against the Washington Nationals.
Fri, 25 Jan 2013 09:23:48 -0800 Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco thinks that he will be traded by the deadline this summer. "I feel pretty sure I'll be traded sometime before the deadline," Nolasco said. "It all depends on how I pitch." He will make $11.5 million this year and will be a free agent heading into 2014.
Sat, 29 Dec 2012 08:54:45 -0800 Miami Marlins SP Ricky Nolasco is expected to start the season with the team and is expected to stay with the team for much of the first half of the 2013 season before they consider trading him.
Wed, 19 Dec 2012 05:34:17 -0800 The Miami Marlins are pushing for Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim OF Mark Trumbo in trade talks involving SP Ricky Nolasco. This confirms a report that the Marlins aren't very interested in OF Peter Bourjos.
