Marcell Ozuna demotion a curious move for Miami Marlins

The Miami Marlins are not going very many places in 2015, and even the typically out-of-touch front office realizes that now that Giancarlo Stanton will miss at least a month with a broken hamate bone in his hand. Usually, in a situation like this, a team would try out its young players and give them Major League reps in preparation for a larger role next season. The Marlins, however, are going in an opposite direction. They demoted Justin Nicolino and Jose Urena, though admittedly neither player impressed in their starts for the Fish.
