Season record: 46-53

Notables:

The big news this week was the call up of Isan Diaz from double-A after being on fire in Jacksonville and being named the Southern League Player of the Week.

His batting average escalated to .245 with 10 homers and 42 RBI for the season after a very slow start, including .314/.429/.714 with four home runs and 12 RBIs in the ten games before his call up. The big picture part of this story is that the Marlins could easily move Starlin Castro by the deadline, which could lead to Diaz being catapulted to the majors by the end of the year.
