Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins designated INF Mike Lamb for assignment.

The team's main left-handed pinch hitter, Lamb is batting just .184 in 38 at-bats this season. He was replaced on the roster by Bryan Petersen.

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins purchased the contract of INF Mike Lamb from Triple-A New Orleans.

Lamb was 5-for-25 (.200) before being outrighted to Triple-A New Orleans earlier this month. The 34-year-old infielder was batting .266/.324/.328 with one home run and 14 RBI with the Zephyrs.

Fri, Jun 18, 2010 12:25:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins sent INF Mike Lamb outright to Triple-A New Orleans.

The 34-year-old infielder was 5-for-25 (.200) with four RBI before being designated for assignment by the Marlins on Sunday. It's no surprise to see him pass through waivers.

Wed, Jun 9, 2010 01:40:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins designated INF Mike Lamb for assignment.

This opens a spot on the 40-man roster for stud prospect Mike Stanton, who will be officially promoted prior to Tuesday's game. The 34-year-old Lamb is likely to pass through waivers and land in Triple-A, just as he did when he was DFA'd last month. He posted a .499 OPS in 25 at-bats for the Fish.

Sun, Jun 6, 2010 08:58:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

According to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel's Juan C. Rodriguez, the Marlins on Tuesday will recall Emilio Bonifacio and Rick Vandenhurk from Triple-A New Orleans, selected the contract of Mike Stanton from Double-A Jacksonville, designate Mike Lamb for assignment and option Brett Carroll and Tim Wood to Triple-A.

Apparently, the Marlins had plans for a bigger splash than just the promotion of one of baseball's best prospects. Obviously, Stanton is the big story, but the club apparently decided to make subtle changes to their bench and bullpen.

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins purchased the contract of INF Mike Lamb from Triple-A New Orleans.

Interesting. Lamb was just bumped off the 40-man earlier this month, but he's back already. The 34-year-old infielder is 4-for-22 (.222) with the Fish this season.

Thu, May 27, 2010 03:02:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins sent INF Mike Lamb outright to Triple-A New Orleans.

The 34-year-old was 4-for-22 (.222) before being designated for assignment by the club last week. After successfully clearing waivers, he's likely to stick with the team's Triple-A affiliate.

Wed, May 12, 2010 09:04:00 AM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins designated INF Mike Lamb for assignment.

Lamb climbed his way onto the big league roster with a .355/.412/.516 batting line, but went just 4-for-18 in limited action for the Fish. The 34-year-old is likely to pass through waivers and land in Triple-A.

Thu, May 6, 2010 10:30:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins purchased the contract of 3B Mike Lamb.

The Fish made the odd decision of designating Jai Miller for assignment to make room, even though he performed well last season at Triple-A New Orleans. Lamb, who hit .355/.412/.516 this spring, will serve as a backup infielder for the Marlins this season.

Sat, Apr 3, 2010 07:14:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Mike Lamb delivered a pinch-hit double in his lone at-bat Monday, giving him a .417 average this spring.

It looks like Lamb will be Ross Gload's replacement on Florida's bench. He's 10-for-24 with five doubles and eight RBI this spring.

Mon, Mar 29, 2010 03:54:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Marlins signed INF Mike Lamb to a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training.

Lamb was last sighted in the majors in 2008, splitting time with the Twins and Brewers and hitting a collective .235/.276/.320 in 272 at-bats. Before that, he had a reputation for good thump and poor defense. The 34 year old spent all of 2009 with the Mets' Triple-A organization, posting a .669 OPS over 440 at-bats. He's a candidate to make the Marlins as a lefty bat off the bench, but it seems clear his days as a major leaguer are over.

Thu, Feb 11, 2010 07:03:00 PM

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

If Carlos Delgado needs to be placed on the disabled list, Mike Lamb is one of the candidates to join the Mets.

Lamb only has a .122 batting average in Triple-A, but is hitting the ball hard. People in the know say Lamb or Ramon Martinez will be the one to receive the call should the Mets opt to put Delgado on the disabled list.

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

The Mets have signed Mike Lamb to a minor-league contract.

He's expected to join Triple-A Buffalo and provide them with some organizational depth in the infield.

Mike Lamb - 1B - Marlins

Brewers released 3B Mike Lamb.

The veteran should catch on with another team, but for the time being he's not worth a roster spot in NL-only leagues.

Depth Charts

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Rob Brantly
	2	Jeff Mathis
	3	Miguel Olivo
1B	1	Logan Morrison D.L. Logan Morrison (knee) went 2-for-5 with a pair of singles Monday in his first rehab game with High-A Jupiter. Morrison, who is coming back from knee surgery, served as the designated hitter. The 25-year-old is permitted to spend 20 days on his rehab assignment and will likely need most of it to shake the rust and get comfortable. However, assuming all goes well, he should join the Marlins' lineup in early June. May 21
	2	Casey Kotchman D.L. Marlins manager Mike Redmond said Casey Kotchman (hamstring) could begin a rehab assignment "in the next few days." Kotchman is finally feeling improvement with his strained left hamstring. He was moved to the 60-day DL last week, though, so he won't be eligible to return until June. May 14
	3	Joe Mahoney D.L. Joe Mahoney (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Jupiter this week. Mahoney has been out since late April with a right hamstring strain. With Logan Morrison (knee) and Casey Kotchman (hamstring) also due back soon, Mahoney might be sent to Triple-A once healthy. May 19
2B	1	Donovan Solano D.L. Donovan Solano's strained left intercostal muscle remains sore. There's no timetable for when he'll resume baseball activities, let alone when he'll return from the DL. Derek Dietrich will continue to serve as the primary second baseman for the Marlins. May 14
	2	Chris Valaika D.L. Chris Valaika underwent successful surgery on Friday, having two pins inserted into his wrist. Valaika is expected to require 4-6 weeks of healing time before he's able to return to the Marlins. He had been virtually ineffective in his 22 games before the injury, hitting .219/.261/.344 with one homer and nine RBI. May 10
	3	Derek Dietrich
	4	Nick Green
SS	1	Adeiny Hechavarria
3B	1	Placido Polanco
	2	Greg Dobbs
LF	1	Juan Pierre
	2	Austin Kearns D.L. Marlins transferred OF Austin Kearns to the restricted list. Kearns was already on the bereavement list, so it's just a procedural move to give him more time. Kyle Skipworth has taken Kearns' spot on the roster. May 12
	3	Matt Diaz D.L. Marlins placed OF Matt Diaz on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 19, with a left knee contusion. Diaz should be ready to return to the active roster as soon as he's eligible. The 35-year-old is batting just .167/.211/.222 in 10 games this season with the Marlins. May 20
	4	Jordan Brown
CF	1	Chris Coghlan
	2	Justin Ruggiano
RF	1	Giancarlo Stanton D.L. Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) could begin jogging sometime next week. That's what Marlins skipper Mike Redmond told reporters on Saturday afternoon. Stanton has been on the disabled list since April 30 with a severe right hamstring strain and is being limited currently to pool workouts. There is no timetable for his return to Miami. May 18
	2	Marcell Ozuna
	3	Alfredo Silverio D.L. Marlins placed OF Alfredo Silverio on the 60-day disabled list with a sprained right elbow. It's not clear how long the Rule 5 pick will be out. Silverio missed the entire 2012 season after injuring his neck and back in an auto accident. Mar 31
Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Ricky Nolasco
	2	Nathan Eovaldi D.L. Marlins manager Mike Redmond said Thursday that Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) has been progressing with his long-toss program. It's not clear when Eovaldi will be ready to throw from a mound, but he's moving in the right direction. The right-hander looks to be a little behind Henderson Alvarez, who should be ready to rejoin the Marlins' rotation in mid-May. Apr 26
	3	Kevin Slowey Sidelined Kevin Slowey left Wednesday's start against the Phillies after the fifth inning with a left lat strain. The Marlins are calling him day-to-day, so it's evidently a minor strain. He will be reevaluated on Thursday before it's determined whether he can make his next start. Slowey was pitching well Wednesday before getting hurt, tossing five innings of one-run ball on six hits and no walks while recording six strikeouts. May 22
	4	Jose Fernandez
	5	Alex Sanabia
	6	Henderson Alvarez D.L. Marlins transferred RHP Henderson Alvarez from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move clears a spot for Nick Green on the active roster. Alvarez recently had a setback with his shoulder and isn't close to returning. May 7
	7	Tom Koehler
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Steve Cishek
	2	Mike Dunn
	3	Ryan Webb
	4	Chad Qualls
	5	A.J. Ramos
	6	Duane Below
	7	Wade LeBlanc
	8	Jose Ceda D.L. Marlins placed RHP Jose Ceda on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury. The hard-throwing right-hander is working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He should be ready for game action when his 60 days are up. Mar 31
