Yelich probably needs to be put on the DL.

You know who would be a good call up if Yelich went to the DL?

  Spoiler:

Derek Dietrich

[HUGG]

That seems like it'd be a dumb call-up if Yelich went on the DL, but ok.

I guess Jeff Baker and Donovan Solano as the backup OFers could be fun.

[marlinsfan24]

Didn't the team work Dietrich in the outfield during the off-season? Him splitting time with Ichiro would help the offense making up what the team loses with Yelich out.

Because of his defensive issues, and the fact Donovan Solano and Enrique Hernandez are on the roster, Dietrich's future with the Marlins may be at another position. In September, he took steps to increase his versatility by participating in Miami's instructional league, getting work at first base and left field.

I'm sure they'd give Dietrich ABs over Ichiro.

[marlinsfan24]

Of course they wouldn't.

[Fishy Lawyer]

Go Fish! So how is this kid Haren as a pitcher?

[Jay]

It'll be Rojas because he's the type of player they need on the bench. They really don't have many options on the 40-man, Dietrich fits the current team needs the best.

[Nick]

I'm down with Haren's new nickname being "The Kid".

Quick show the Stanton Grand Slam off the scoreboard with Moyer in the booth.

[Fishy Lawyer]

He looks very young. Not familiar with him though. I haven't followed baseball much for the last 2 years.

[Nick]

He almost retired in the offseason. Was very good about 6-7 years ago. Now he's a back of the rotation type guy. He's been very good so far this year, though.

He sucks.

[Fishy Lawyer]

God no! I was not looking forward to that.

Well, it's only 2 runs. We can come back from that.

[Spork5812]

what is it with us giving up all these HRs to shitty SS this season

[MiamiHomer]

Hopefully the Marlins can not make Williams look like a Cy Young candidate the 2nd time through the line up.

[Fishy Lawyer]

The game is still young. A Stanton home run and a few good hits and we can recover. I have faith.

[BigGameFish]

I can't watch this team anymore. How can it be this bad. We have a good team!
