The Miami Marlins have frequently used many starting pitchers through their history. Last season, 13 players started games, led by José Ureña‘s 31 all the way down to Odrisamer Despaigne‘s single start in the third game of the season. In the season before that, 12 pitchers started games, led by Dan Straily‘s 33 all the way down to Wei-Yin Chen‘s five. In fact, you have to go all the way back to 2012 to find the last time the Marlins as few as 10 pitchers through the campaign.
This Spring Training, we’ve seen “tryouts” for a lot of guys looking to make the rotation.
