  • Marlins Give Penn Another Shot; Put Him Back on 40-man Roster

    The Marlins are planning on taking another look at right-hander Hayden Penn.

    The team on Monday announced it had selected the contract of the 25-year-old, who spent most of the season at Triple-A New Orleans.

    Florida's 40-man roster now stands at 34.

    The Marlins acquired Penn late in Spring Training from the Orioles for infielder Robert Andino. Out of options, Penn was on Florida's Opening Day roster. He made 16 appearances for the Marlins, including one start. He was 1-0 with a 7.77 ERA.

    Penn struck out 27 and walked 20 in 22 innings.

    For New Orleans, Penn appeared in 14 games, with 13 starts. The right-hander was 2-4 with a 4.11 ERA, striking out 62 and walking 26 in 70 innings.

      I don't see why not. He's got a live arm and worst case we kick him back off the 40.

        Yellow hand on yellow circle is really overused round here

          Doesn't hurt as long as the roster spot can't be used for a better reason at this time

            The guy has great stuff; he just has to harness it. He certainly showed some flashes of brilliance last year.
