The Miami Marlins are desperate for starting pitching. That isn’t news. On Tuesday, they’ll give left-hander Adam Conley another shot. That’s kind of news. If you’ve followed the team this season, you knew that it was inevitable at some point.
Conley will get second chance for the fourth or fifth time on Tuesday. The decision by the Miami Marlins was the best available of several lame-duck options. When he takes the mound at the Major League level against the Phillies, he’ll be there by way of attrition.
With lackluster numbers in AAA, Conley has been recalled to Major League Baseball.
