Jose Fernandez - S - Marlins

Jose Fernandez allowed just one run over five innings Tuesday, taking a no-decision as the Marlins lost to the Phillies.

A Delmon Young solo homer was the only damage done to Fernandez on the night, but his offense let him down once again. The 20-year-old owns a respectable 2-2 record and 3.31 ERA, all things considered, and he seems to be continuing to get better as the season goes on. His next start is scheduled for Monday against the Rays.

Andrew Heaney - S - Marlins

Marlins prospect left-hander Andrew Heaney allowed an unearned run on four hits and two walks while registering nine strikeouts over 4 1/3 innings for High-A Jupiter on Monday.

Heaney's start to the season had been delayed due to a lat injury sustained at the onset of spring training, but his outing on Monday suggests it's no longer a concern. The ninth overall pick in the 2012 draft, Heaney has a chance to move quickly through the Marlins' system.

Logan Morrison - 1B - Marlins

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.

Steve Cishek - R - Marlins

Marlins manager Mike Redmond said he plans to use "everybody" at closer.

Michael Dunn saved Sunday's game and Chad Qualls was warming up during a save chance Monday before the Marlins extended their lead. Former full-time closer Steve Cishek holds a 4.91 ERA and 1.42 WHIP on the year and has struggled against left-handed batters. "We’re going to use Cishek. We’ll use Qualls. We haven’t had that many save opportunities. We need those guys to pitch. We need Cishek to go down there and log some innings. He’s still going to close games. Qualls might close some games. Dunn might close some games. We need these guys to pitch we need them to stay sharp. They’re all going to contribute."

Alex Sanabia - S - Marlins

Alex Sanabia scattered seven hits while holding the Phillies to one run in 6 1/3 innings in a victory on Monday.

Sanabia snapped a five-start losing streak, winning for the first time since April 16. With his 1.69 WHIP and 28/24 K/BB ratio in 51 1/3 innings, he wouldn't be much of a fantasy option even if he pitched for a good team.

Jordan Brown - 1B - Marlins

Marlins purchased the contract of 1B/OF Jordan Brown from Triple-A New Orleans.

Brown was sporting a weak .261/.305/.336 batting line at the Triple-A level. He will not carry any fantasy value.
May 20 - 2:20 PM
Matt Diaz - OF - Marlins

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 - 2:18 PM
Ricky Nolasco - S - Marlins

Ricky Nolasco whiffed 11 batters while holding the Diamondbacks to one run over eight frames in Sunday's 2-1 win.

Nolasco came out for the ninth trying to finish off a shutout but was pulled after giving up a leadoff double to Didi Gregorius. The bullpen let the inherited runner score but eventually closed it out in nail-biting fashion. Nolasco has gone through his typical ups and downs but ultimately has pitched pretty well for the Fish, posting a 3.96 ERA and 1.16 WHIP. He'll face the White Sox next weekend.
May 19 - 4:37 PM
Mike Dunn - R - Marlins

Michael Dunn nailed down his second career save in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Marlins manager Mike Redmond decided to pull closer Steve Cishek and go to Dunn with two on and lefty Miguel Montero coming up. Dunn walked Montero but then got A.J. Pollock to ground out after running the count full. With Cishek's struggles against left-handers this year, its possible Dunn could see the occasional save opportunity.
May 19 - 4:33 PM
Steve Cishek - R - Marlins

Steve Cishek was pulled from a save chance Sunday after allowing a two-out single and a walk.

Cishek came on after Ricky Nolasco gave up a leadoff double and got a groundout and sac fly before running into trouble. The closer then gave way to Mike Dunn, who walked a batter before getting a groundout to end it. Cishek has been dominant against right-handers this season, but lefties have really given him fits. It's possible Dunn could see the occasional save chance if matchups dictate it.
May 19 - 4:28 PM
Marcell Ozuna - OF - Marlins

Marcell Ozuna drove in the Marlins' only two runs with a two-RBI double in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.

The big two-out hit came in the sixth inning and was all the runs the Marlins needed in the pitchers' duel. Ozuna now has a modest five-game hitting streak going and is batting .297 over 18 games to go along with eight RBI. He's likely played his way into being kept on the big league roster after Giancarlo Stanton's return.
May 19 - 4:11 PM
Joe Mahoney - 1B - Marlins

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.

Logan Morrison - 1B - Marlins

Logan Morrison (knee) is slated to begin a rehab assignment with High-A Jupiter on Monday.

Morrison has been playing in extended spring training games lately and hasn't had any setbacks with his surgically-repaired knee. With his 20-day rehab clock started on Monday, he'll be activated no later than early June as long as he doesn't have a setback.

Steve Cishek - R - Marlins

Steve Cishek worked a perfect ninth inning in a non-save situation against the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

Cishek took the loss against the Reds his last time out, so it was good to see him back and pitching well. The Marlins don't have any better options and Cishek is actually pretty good for the most part, so there's little doubt he will continue to be the closer going forward.
May 18 - 9:54 PM
Tom Koehler - R - Marlins

Tom Koehler allowed one run over six innings, but the Marlins lost to the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

The loss is hard to pin on Koehler, who allowed only a solo home run to Gerardo Parra leading off the game. Over the rest of the night, Koehler surrendered just two hits and two walks while striking out seven. The right-hander hasn't been bad this year, and he should garner another start despite behind landed the loss. He's in line to take the mound again on Friday against the White Sox.
