It could be a long final month for the Marlins.
On Sunday, they sent out Jeff Brigham to face the Toronto Blue Jays in his big-league debut. It didn’t go so well. Brigham struggled to get through three innings before coming out in a 6-1 loss.
But this is September, after all, when teams are permitted to expand their rosters and when those hopelessly out of it -- such as the Marlins --- can can start offering a bit of playing time to prospects being considered for the future.
Brigham fits that profile. He has pitched well in the minors.
