Total opposite of what I "predicted." JD Martin and Nick Green were also reassigned. Solano still remains though.
Marlins released OF Aaron Rowand.
Rowand has looked terrible this spring, batting just .128 (6-for-47) with one extra-base hit and eight strikeouts, so this was an expected move. One wonders if the 34-year-old will call it a career at this point.

Marlins optioned OF Bryan Petersen to Triple-A New Orleans.
Petersen didn't exactly play poorly this spring, batting .250 (11-for-44) with a homer and four stolen bases, but sometimes having options left works against you at this time of the year. Austin Kearns and Chris Coghlan now both have a pretty good shot to be with the team on Opening Day. The Marlins also reassigned right-hander J.D. Martin and infielder Nick Green to minor league camp.
