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 - 12:02 PM

Marlins transferred RHP Nathan Eovaldi from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.

Eovaldi developed a shoulder issue near the end of spring training. There's no exact timetable for his return.
Apr 18 - 12:53 PM

Marlins placed RHP Nathan Eovaldi on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 24, with mild right shoulder inflammation.

That came out of nowhere. Eovaldi had a pretty nice spring and was slated to open the season as the club's No. 2 starter, but evidently his pitching shoulder is bothering him. He'll resume throwing next week, though, and the Marlins are hoping he will be sidelined no more than a month. Henderson Alvarez is also out with a shoulder ailment, and the Marlins will use Jose Fernandez and Alex Sanabia as their replacements in the rotation.
Mar 31 - 9:45 AM

Nathan Eovaldi notched a rare spring training complete game as the Marlins beat the Twins 6-2 in five innings Monday.

The game was delayed and then called due to rain. Eovaldi allowed five hits, walked two and struck out three in improving to 3-0 this spring. We don't recommend getting too excited about him as a fantasy starter.
Mar 18 - 4:32 PM

Nathan Eovaldi held the Braves to one run while striking out four over five innings Wednesday.

He surrendered just three hits -- one of them being a Freddie Freeman homer -- and didn't walk anyone. Eovaldi holds a 3.29 ERA this spring and has struck out 11 over 13 2/3 frames. He should have some NL-only value this season.
Mar 13 - 8:57 PM

Nathan Eovaldi pitched a pair of hitless innings and struck out three in the Marlins' 5-1 win over the Nationals on Wednesday.

Eovaldi was 3-7 with a 4.43 ERA in 12 starts after joining the Marlins in last summer's Hanley Ramirez trade with the Dodgers, but his rotation spot seems assured this spring. He'd make more sense as a reserve pick in NL-only leagues than as a $1-$2 guy.
Feb 27 - 3:52 PM

Nathan Eovaldi notched a quality start but still lost Sunday, allowing three runs over six frames against the Phillies.

Eovaldi pitched well, giving up six hits while walking one and striking out seven, but he simply wasn't as good as Cole Hamels. Nevertheless, Eovaldi closed out the year in an encouraging way, posting a 3.88 ERA over his final 10 starts. He has a good chance to break camp next spring as a member of the rotation.

Nathan Eovaldi delivered a strong outing in a no-decision against the Braves on Tuesday night, allowing just two runs on four hits over his six innings of work.

Eovaldi racked up a career-high eight strikeouts and walked only two. It’s the second consecutive dominant effort for the young right-hander, who looks to be coming into his own in the Marlins' rotation. He’ll look to finish the season on a high note when he takes on the Phillies at home on Sunday.

Nathan Eovaldi delivered an outstanding performance in a no-decision against the Braves on Tuesday, scattering four hits over eight shutout innings.

Eovaldi racked up five strikeouts. All five of the hits he allowed were singles, and no Braves batter advanced past second base against him. He handed a 3-0 lead over to Steve Cishek and the Marlins bullpen, but they were unable to hold on. Eovaldi will look to build on this strong outing when he does battle against these same Braves in Atlanta on Wednesday.

Nathan Eovaldi was hammered in a loss to the Phillies on Tuesday, surrendering five runs on eight hits over just four-plus innings.

Eovaldi walked two and struck out three. He has struggled through his first nine starts with the Marlins since being acquired in the Hanley Ramirez trade, posting a 3-6 record, 5.44 ERA and 24/22 K/BB ratio over 43 innings. He’ll attempt to turn things around when he takes on the Braves at home on Tuesday.
Tue, Sep 11, 2012 10:49:00 PM

Nathan Eovaldi allowed two runs on six hits in five innings Wednesday, falling to 4-11 in Miami's 8-5 loss to the Brewers.

Eovaldi struck out four, walked one and allowed a two-run homer to Rickie Weeks. He's now 3-5 with just two quality starts in eight outings since joining the Marlins. The 22-year-old righty will bring a 4.44 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 55/40 K/BB ratio into his Monday start in Philadelphia.
Wed, Sep 5, 2012 10:48:00 PM

Nathan Eovaldi turned in a quality start in Friday's loss to the Mets, allowing three runs on four hits over seven strong innings.

Eovaldi walked one and struck out one on the night. Ike Davis was responsible for all of the damage in the game, driving home the first run with a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning, and belting a two-run homer in the seventh. He's struggled through his first seven starts with the Marlins, posting a 3-4 record, 5.03 ERA and 17/19 K/BB ratio. He'll attempt to get back in the win column when he takes on the Brewers at home on Wednesday.
Fri, Aug 31, 2012 10:57:00 PM

Pitching against his former team, Nathan Eovaldi allowed six runs over three innings in a loss to the Dodgers on Friday.

Eovaldi had gone six straight starts without allowing a homer, but tonight he gave up three. He fell to 3-3 for his new team, and his ERA jumped to 5.33.
Sat, Aug 25, 2012 01:57:00 AM

Nathan Eovaldi held the Rockies to one run over 6 2/3 innings Saturday in a Marlins victory.

Eovaldi walked four and surrendered six hits, but he operated smoothly in situations that required damage control while moving to 4-8 on the season. He'll take a 4.03 ERA into his next start against the Diamondbacks. The young righty remains an iffy play in most fantasy formats.
Sat, Aug 18, 2012 11:26:00 PM

Nathan Eovaldi lasted only five innings in Monday’s loss to the Phillies, allowing three runs – two earned – on eight hits and three walks.

Eovaldi has been pretty inefficient since arriving in South Beach, as he’s failed to go beyond 5 1/3 frames. Walks have been an issue, as he’s issued 12 free passes over 17 1/3 frames with his new team. He’ll try for better results this weekend in Colorado.
