#Marlins roster moves, per Hill (will be official Tue):

So based on who we know are healthy, we are looking at:

C - Lavarnway
1B - Aguilar
2B - Villar
SS - Berti/Alvarez
3B - Anderson
LF - Dickerson
CF - Harrison
RF - Brinson/Joyce
DH - Joyce/Forsythe

SP - Lopez, Yamamoto, Hernandez
RP - Kintzler, Shafer, Smith, Bleier, Guzman, Hoyt, Moran, Morin, Vincent, Josh Smith

That's 24. It seems Hernandez is the other healthy starter, so Caleb Smith is out. I'm assuming Neidert and/or Dugger will be the other starter. Also, no word yet on who is available at catcher yet.

Marlins Manager Don Mattingly says the rumors that were out there were just not true. No recklesness. Says the worst part was all the untruths about the players and on the players.

Really? After Jeter just acknowledged that many players were lax with wearing masks and social distancing? What else matters? It's on the border of sad and sickening.

There's a big difference between going out for coffee and going out to the club in terms of recklessness.

C-?/Lavarnway
1B-Aguilar
2B-Alvarez/Forysthe
SS-Villar/Berti
3B-BA
LF-Dickerson
CF-Monte
RF-Brinson/Joyce

SP-Lopez/Elieser/Yamamoto/Neidert/Dugger
RP-Josh A Smith/Josh D Smith/Moran/Morin/Bleier/Shafer/Vincent/Hoyt/Guzman/Kintzler

Taxi-Humberto Mejia/Castano/Naverreto

They are trying to claim another P or 2 but cant yet which is why Mejia and Castano are on(Not sure either pitch and are IF Necessary). Might be 1 more position player active but not confirmed

Roster goes from 30(33) to 28(31) on Thursday

That would be a weird choice to start Forsythe/Alvarez over Berti.

Eye of the beholder. I leave Berti as a utility guy. Alvarez will win you over quickly. I'll be a little surprised if Forsythe starts in the field.

Eye on tonight. Weather may be okay for series opener. Scouted Orioles by watching series with Tampa Bay, which they swept. Lots of hot bats in the O's lineup right now. The guy to pitch around is Renato Nunez. Seems like Marlins will have to find maybe five runs of offense each game to have a shot.

No new positives today, so that's good.

[Nick]

I wonder if I'm getting today's game. It's not showing up on my DirecTV guide.

Looks like the Magic are playing on the regular 654.

My guide shows the Marlins/Orioles game on the alt channel 654-1 right below it at 7:30.

On 654-1 it now says Title Not Available from 7:30-10:30 so that must be the game.

Strange. Mine has Marlins @ Orioles.

Start of game between Miami and BALT may be delayed (or worse) pending receipt of another round of test results for Miami players ... per MLB
