As we’ve reiterated again and again, the Marlins have more moves to make once the MLB lockout is resolved. Their current roster is projected for an 80-82 record this season, according to Dan Szymborski of FanGraphs, with a 5.7% chance of winning their first-ever National League East division title. Unexciting, sure, but just getting to 80 wins would be the franchise’s highest total since 2010.
Former Marlins prospect Kyle Nicolas tells The Call Up podcast that his success last season with Double-A Pensacola can be attributed to trusting his secondary pitches.
