With Henderson Alvarez non-tendered, and an extreme lack of minor league pitching depth, the Marlins must sign at least one starting pitcher this offseason. With an appalling lack of depth at pitching, the Marlins still have a few viable options on the table, and they should consider at least a few of them.
The Marlins current pitching options are comprised of: Jose Fernandez, Tom Koehler, David Phelps, Adam Conley, Brad Hand, Justin Nicolino, Jared Cosart and Jose Urena.
In other words, there isn’t a whole lot of depth or value on either end. Koehler is a serviceable pitcher who’s put together several solid seasons.
