MIAMI Returning to a pitching-prominent organization has long been the Marlins objective. For years, stockpiling as many quality arms as possible has been the plan. But the results didn t always follow.
Right now, the franchise is seeing progress at all levels. The strong pitching being seen at the big league level is also mirrored in the Minor League system.
Pitching carried the Marlins in their 8-1 road trip that wrapped up with a 5-3 win in 12 innings over the Astros on Wednesday. During the three-city, nine-game swing, Miami pitchers combined for a 2.07 ERA, allowing 20 earned runs in 87 innings.
