PHILADELPHIA (CBSMiami/AP) – The Miami Marlins season hasn’t started out as many had expected, but one major problem has trumped the rest.
The starting rotation’s inability to eat up innings has taxed the Marlins’ bullpen and led to a disastrous start.
Relievers have gotten a bit of a break when Dan Haren gets the ball.
Haren faces a struggling Philadelphia Phillies offense as visiting Miami looks to end a four-game losing streak Tuesday night.
The Marlins (3-10) initially had trouble scoring, but the pitching staff hasn’t been able to keep opponents off the scoreboard even as the lineup has gotten going.
