The Marlins' lefty workhorse reliever, Renyel Pinto, has been placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 23, with left elbow inflammation. The Marlins have recalled Cristhian Martinez from Double A Jacksonville to fill his spot.
Pinto's last three appearances have not gone well (3 2/3 innings, 8 hits, 4 ER, 2 HR). He had delivered 10 consecutive scoreless outings prior to the rut.
Even though Martinez gave up a game-deciding home run to Arizona's Mark Reynolds during his 1-game cameo on Thursday, the Marlins liked the fact that he attacked the strike zone and looked composed on the mound.
Emilio Bonifacio watches from the bench tonight. Wes Helms starts at third:
Marlins: 1. Chris Coghlan, lf; 2. Jeremy Hermida, rf; 3. Hanley Ramirez, ss; 4. Jorge Cantu, 3b; 5. Wes Helms, 3b; 6. Dan Uggla, 2b; 7. Cody Ross, cf; 8. Ronny Paulino, c; 9. Chris Volstad, p.
It is sad the way this organization toys with their players sending them up and down their minor-league system. Martinez did look splendid in his lone apperance.

Hopefully Boni can get back on track after clearing his mind on this day off. Maybe we will need a PH at some point in which he can help us in

Clark or Manny, anything that can be done against this Mike guy who I decided to ignore because I am the bigger, better man here and have decided to just let it go and not respond to him. But him attacking me with regards to my physical impairment is crossing the line please either remove him from here or remove his post -- Do something as this is not acceptable.

Nice professional, patient at-bat by Wes Helms against Jamie Moyer resulting in a 3-run shot.
