Miami Marlins news, rumors and injuriesWed, 22 May 2013 00:48:01 -0700 Miami Marlins manager Mike Redmond said OF Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) would take live batting practice Wednesday, May 22 and begin "functional running." Share: Marlins | Jose Fernandez has rough start, but bullpen blows Tuesday game Wed, 22 May 2013 00:43:22 -0700 Miami Marlins SP Jose Fernandez lasted five innings in his latest start Tuesday, May 21, against the Philadelphia Phillies. It marked his shortest outing since being pulled after giving up two runs in four innings against the New York Mets on April 29. After he left, however, Marlins relievers were tagged for six runs in a 7-3 loss. Share:  Marlins | Steve Cishek no longer sole closerMon, 20 May 2013 22:20:36 -0700 Miami Marlins manager Mike Redmond said following the game Monday, May 20, that Steve Cishek is no longer the only closer. "We're going to use everybody," he said, mentioning Cishek, Chad Qualls and Mike Dunn by name. Qualls was warming up Monday when Miami was holding a 2-1 lead in the eighth inning but was used in the ninth inning in a non-save situation. Left-handed bats are hitting .333 versus Cishek, while right-handed hitters are hitting just .111. Fantasy Tip: A.J. Ramos might be included in this group as well. Still, this is looking like a messy situation for fantasy purposes. If Cishek improves on his weakness, he'd probably be given a shot to get the job back all to himself, but Redmond won't look to do that in the near future without a clear turnaround from Cishek. Don't drop him, though, as he's probably still the lead option. Share: Marlins | Matt Diaz to DL Mon, 20 May 2013 12:40:26 -0700 The Miami Marlins placed OF Matt Diaz (knee) on the 15-day disabled list with a left knee bone bruise Monday, May 20, and recalled OF Jordan Brown from Triple-A New Orleans. Diaz was hitting only .167 (3-for-18) in 10 games this year. Brown can play first base and left field, but he last played in the majors in 2010. Brown was batting .261 with one homer and 12 RBIs in 37 games for New Orleans. Fantasy Tip: Brown could have value in deep NL-only leagues he he splits time at first base with Greg Dobbs. Otherwise, he'll likely just serve as outfield depth. Share: Marlins | Gil Velazquez signed Sat, 18 May 2013 14:25:44 -0700 The Miami Marlins have signed free-agent INF Gil Velazquez (Yankees) to a minor league contract. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. Share: Marlins | Giancarlo Stanton could jog soon Sat, 18 May 2013 13:56:12 -0700 Miami Marlins manager Mike Redmond said OF Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) could start jogging at some point next week. Fantasy Tip: It does not appear like Stanton is close to beginning a rehab assignment at this point. Owners should continue to wait until Stanton is able to rejoin the lineup. Share: Marlins | Giancarlo Stanton resumes hitting Sat, 18 May 2013 12:06:49 -0700 Miami Marlins OF Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) has been doing hitting in a batting cage and hopes to return to action before the All-Star break. Share: Marlins | Roster moves made Fri, 17 May 2013 20:24:55 -0700 The Miami Marlins designated RP Jon Rauch Friday, May 17, creating a spot on the 40-man roster for RP Duane Below. Share: Marlins | Logan Morrison beginning rehab assignment Fri, 17 May 2013 13:07:09 -0700 Miami Marlins 1B Logan Morrison (knee) will begin his rehab assignment with Single-A Jupiter Monday, May 20. Fantasy Tip: Because of the seriousness of Morrison's knee injury, expect his rehab assignment to last close to the 30-day limit. That puts him on track to return late in June. Morrison will be given the starting first base duties when he returns, so it's time to start considering stashing him in mixed leagues. Share: Marlins | David Aardsma released Wed, 15 May 2013 12:29:21 -0700 The Miami Marlins released RP David Aardsma Wednesday, May 15. Share: Marlins | No timetable for Donovan Solano Tue, 14 May 2013 20:12:35 -0700 Miami Marlins 2B Donovan Solano (oblique) continues to be bothered by his sore oblique, and there is no timetable for his return. Share: Marlins | First basemen rehabbing Tue, 14 May 2013 15:46:22 -0700 Miami Marlins 1B Casey Kotchman (hamstring) has been running and is close to going on a rehab assignment in the next few days. 1B Logan Morrison (knee) played first base for five innings in extended spring training Tuesday, May 14. Fantasy Tip: Kotchman is expected to return before Morrison, and Kotchman should become the every day first baseman until Morrison makes his way back. Morrison doesn't have many at-bats in extended spring training right now, so he'll likely spend at least another 20 days getting up to speed. Morrison is a mixed league commodity if he's healthy, but there's no guarantee that the power he displayed before his knee injury will come back full bore. Share: Marlins | Giancarlo Stanton not doing baseball activities Tue, 14 May 2013 15:35:28 -0700 Miami Marlins OF Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) isn't doing any baseball activities yet. "No baseball activity but he's running in the pool. I just go by what they tell me. From what I've heard, it's a similar type of strain from what Kotchman has. It's taken a while for him. We really don't have a time frame. It just depends on how fast he heals and how fast he feels like he can get back on the field," manager Mike Redmond said. Fantasy Tip: Stanton doesn't appear close to going on any type of minor league rehab assignment since he's not partaking in baseball activities. You'll have to be patient here. Don't expect him to return until some time in June. Marcell Ozuna will should remain on the roster and benefit from steady playing time in the meantime. He's been a pleasant surprise in his first big league experience, but the high average won't last forever. Share: Marlins | Jeff Mathis activated Tue, 14 May 2013 14:03:40 -0700 The Miami Marlins activated C Jeff Mathis (collarbone) from the 15-day disabled list Tuesday, May 14. Share: Marlins | Kyle Skipworth optioned Mon, 13 May 2013 11:58:41 -0700 The Miami Marlins optioned C Kyle Skipworth to Triple-A New Orleans Monday, May 13. Share:  |
