Jacksonville Suns begin 2016 season tonight

The Miami Marlins Double-A Affiliate Jacksonville Suns start their 2016 season tonight at the Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville.

The Jacksonville Suns, the Double-A affiliate of the Miami Marlins, have announced their Opening Day roster in preparation for the start of the 2016 season.

I'm Roger Hoover, the radio and television broadcaster for the Suns, and each week this season on Fish Stripes we'll take a look here on Fish Stripes how the Suns are doing and what Double-A players Marlins fans will need to keep an eye on.

Twelve of the 25 players on the roster have spent time with Jacksonville before, including three members of a standout starting pitching rotation.
