Heaney Watch

Scratched from yesterday's start? A bit confusing, I thought he was pitching today. Anyways, the article mentions that they were just letting him "rest".

Yeah he was suppose to pitch Thursday.

It could be for rest, but it could be in case Eovaldi's wife goes into labor and the Marlins need someone up, quickly. Going to be interesting to see.

Well I hope Eovaldi's wife goes into labor tomorrow morning then. They did mention that they could just bump up the rotation to facilitate that.

“We decided a few weeks ago we were going to skip a start here and there (with Heaney),” said Marty Scott, the Marlins’ vice president of player development. “This is the first of several. We’ll probably do this again in July and one more time in August.”

“This way, we don’t have to worry about shutting him down in September,” Scott said. “If we don’t let him skip a couple of starts and rest up and guard these innings, we’d have to shut him down in September, and that’s something we don’t want to do. We don’t want to have to shut him down in the middle of a pennant race.”
