While Miami has one of the worst records in baseball, Marlins fans should not despair. There is a wealth of talent in the minor leagues, and they are performing well through the first two months of baseball.
Andrew Heaney struck out nine batters, including two top prospects, in his first start of the year. Mason Hope got rocked in Hagerstown, while Mark Canha homered for Jacksonville.
Jacksonville scored three runs off Alex Wood, the best pitcher in the Southern League this year, while Justin Nicolino threw six scoreless innings.
All of the Marlins affiliates, aside from Triple-A New Orleans, won their games on Saturday. Brian Flynn had a rough day for New Orleans, while Cameron Flynn had a huge game for Greensboro.
The Jacksonville Suns won despite a quiet offense, as Christian Yelich went hit-less, and Jake Marisnick suffered a hat-trick. Austin Brice's bumpy command led to Greensboro's third consecutive loss.
Yelich homered and doubled for the second consecutive game, Brent Keys reached base five times, and the Fresno Grizzlies shutout New Orleans.
