Marlins ST 2019: Flirting with a six-man rotation

I think it is fair to say the Miami Marlins have a pitching staff that could one of the best in Major League baseball in the not too distant future. It’s also fair to say that because of the success of these young pitchers this Spring, tough decisions must be made about who comes and who goes when final cuts are made.

Or, do they have to be?

Would the Marlins, who are riding an 11-game winning streak in the Grapefruit League (I love writing that), think of adding a sixth man to the rotation? How much sense does it make given Wei-Yin Chen is still on the roster, Jose Urena and Dan Straily will be the team’s top two starters and there are four pitchers who have been better than advertised in March?
