Marlins Lineup

1. SS Miguel Rojas
2. LF Harold Ramírez
3. 1B Garrett Cooper
4. 2B Starlin Castro
5. RF Brian Anderson
6. 3B Martin Prado
7. C Bryan Holaday
8. CF Yadiel Rivera
9. P Elieser Hernandez (2.61 ERA, 3.56 FIP, 25.3 K%, 44.0 Hard Hit% in 38.0 IP)

Notes: Right-hander Jeff Brigham will rejoin the active roster in place of the departed Sergio Romo (call-up is still unofficial)...Hernandez makes his first start since July 4 against the Nationals. All of his outings between now and then were relatively short relief appearances, so safe to say his pitch count will be somewhat limited...Plenty of Marlins alumni are on hand for Throwback Weekend! Antonio Alfonseca will handle the ceremonial first pitch. There is a “selfie station” at Section 12 on the Promenade Level featuring Alfonseca, Álex González, Gaby Sanchez and Tommy Hutton. Although the series wraps around for a fourth game on Monday, this will be the final day of the throwback festivities...Christian Cevallos has reaction from the Romo trade and more major storylines in our weekly Marlins news roundup.
