The Marlins are contending for their first playoff berth since 2003.
President of baseball operations Michael Hill said the Marlins are discussing whether to reach out to Rodriguez, who was unconditionally released by the New York Yankees on Saturday.?
That’s what they did Sunday.
Stanton hurt his groin while trying to get to second on a hit Saturday. He finally limped off the field as the Chicago White Soxcelebrated an 8-7 victory over Miami on Saturday. “We’re going to rehab it, and best-case scenario is a six-week return”.
Stanton wasn’t the only Miami player placed on the 15-day DL – he was joined by leftie pitcher Adam Conley. “We’ll have a little different look”. “He’s an available player, so he’ll be on that list, and we’ll see where it goes”. “They hit him around pretty good”.
“He takes it harder than anybody else”, Ventura said. “It was a great throw”.
“Yeah, I’m not really doing too much to help this, either, ” Sale said. “It’s frustrating. It would be frustrating for anybody”. The Marlins trailed the Cardinals by one-half game for the second wild card entering Sunday’s play. But Sale failed to cover the plate, and Adeiny Hechavarria scored for a 3-2 Marlins lead.
Sale said he was guilty of a brain cramp.
“He got caught kind of watching it, ” manager Robin Ventura said. Realmuto’s two-out single in the third put Miami ahead 5-4.
Wright is 13-5 with a 3.01 ERA.
Koehler dueled Sale to a standoff for six innings, allowing three runs on six hits, and also contribute at bat. Mike Dunn (3-1) pitched a ideal seventh. This will be Finnegan’s first career game against the Marlins.
Saladino’s single to left almost tied the game, but Christian Yelich threw out pinch runner Carlos Sanchez at the plate to seal the win and Rodney’s his third save as a Marlin and 20th overall.
2B Andino, recalled from Triple-A to take Stanton’s roster spot, flew overnight from Las Vegas, landed at 9 a.m. and went directly to the ballpark.
They got several, beginning with Miami native Robert Andino, who flew all night fromm Las Vegas after being summoned to the major leagues for the first time since 2013. So, A-Rod’s only value – as presently, um, presented – would come as a pinch hitter.
The Cincinnati Reds look for consistency after splitting their last 12 games. It was his third leadoff homer of the season and the seventh of his career.The White Sox made it 2-0 in the first inning when Melky Cabrera doubled and scored on a one-out single by Jose Abreu.
