    Rienzo and Mazaro getting called up tomorrow according to Frisaro

      For some reason I thought Rienzo had been terrible this year, but his numbers are solid. Makes sense.

        Also stated both are to work out of relief with starters to be called up later.

        Rienzo has been starting (last game 5/16) so it's strange he didn't start a game today.

        Frisaro also said Nicolino didn't start today for the possibility of being called up.

          Glad to hear that.

          If Alvarez and Latos are gone for a significant amount of time, season is pretty much over for me. Rotation is just too bad, especially with having holes in half our line up. I do at least think our bullpen will be better (actually 4th in fWAR, doing bad thanks to a .334 BABIP. Hopefully that gets righted).

          Having a rotation of Haren, Phelps, Koehler, Urena, and Nicolino (I assume) is not pretty.

          I really hope this season doesn't go all 2007 on our rotation and we're sending and Daniel Barone's in September.

            Doesn't make sense to me to call up Rienzo for relief over Mazzaro. Maybe you risk losing Mazzaro in 3 days when he gets demoted and not Rienzo?

            I don't like skipping Nicolino's start today with how good Urena's been and Flores lining up with for the Latos start already. It wasn't like Nicolino is the obvious starter call up.

            It's going to be really fun to have the #1-4 guys in the rotation on the DL at the same time.

              Yeah, I assume Mazzaro is just filler. Even if we lose him like Masset, it's not an asset lost.

                Yeah but it's weird that they didn't start Rienzo in my mind when you have Mazzaro and the roster space. 2.18 FIP, 25.9% K%, 4.7% BB%, .379 BABIP

                - - - - - - - - - -

                It's not like they knew that Alvarez was going on the DL before new orleans played today

                  Frisaro said a couple days ago the Marlins seriously considered calling up Flores when they put Cosart on the DL, so I would guess he's certainly gonna be one of the 2 starters.

                  found it:

                    That answers that.


                    Looks like they flipped Nicolino and Rienzo with the day off Wednesday, I guess to keep Nicolino on regular rest.

                        The one thing we have is SP depth- Hand,Rienzo,Nicolino,Urena,Conley,Flores and that is just on the 40 man

                        Could have had Rodon too but on the brightside Kolek has looked much better latley(Control ALOT better) and when we are good in 2018 he should be up

                          They have mediocre pitching depth with little upside. Kolek being good in 2018 is nothing.

                            TJ having 8 possible number 5 starters isn't good SP depth.

                            Hugg, official site posted and article saying Rienzo is to be called up. Also, when you scratch Nicolino's start, why would you replace him with a spot starter instead of a guy who's already on extra rest. Morey hadn't pitched in awhile but was still transitioning from the bullpen. Misch's spot in the rotation was before Rienzo but if the organization would rather give more rest to the 26th year old so Nicolino could start on normal rest instead of bumping a 33 year old. The situation doesn't make sense unless they planned on Rienzo for the weekend and just knew that he couldn't make it to Miami before last night's game so they didn't make the transaction yet and then Nicolino for Tuesday's start.

                              hopefully they are so bad Loria decides to sell. That'll be worth a 100 loss season.
