Roster Examination/ Spring Training Competitions... Marlins Dynasty 
Posted on December 31, 2013 at 07:31 PM.
So looking over major-league roster for Miami Marlins, it's easy to see our top two players, right fielder Giancarlo Stanton and closing pitcher Steve Cishek. I hope these two players will make a difference for us in 2013. As I was looking at our triple a roster I noticed we have two top 50 prospects in outfielder Ken Guthrie and closing pitcher Luis Cuevas.

This is an interesting opportunity for the Marlins but also bad one. These two prospects are in the same position as our top two players on our major-league roster. Which raises the question, do Guthrie and Cuevas become movable during the season? We could possibly acquire some other prospects for the positions that we do need, but it just all depends on the performance of our major league players. We might be able to get some major-league players also out of those two prospects, some guys that are major-league ready.

Moving on to a couple of likely spring-training competitions. Shortstop will definitely be one of those we have four major league shortstops as it stands in spring training right now. That number will obviously decline, we also have prospect Roger Torres in AAA. The two shortstops that will likely be in the running for the starting job because I don't want to committee, will be Adeiny Hechavarria and Nick Green. I honestly want to see Adeiny win it, but may the best man win.

The last possible competition in spring-training will be the fifth spot in the starting rotation. Wade LeBlanc, Brad Hand, and Tom Koehler will be in the running. Hand and LeBlanc are both lefties. We have a righty heavy starting 4, which includes Nolasco, Eovaldi, Turner, and Henderson Alvarez.

I will be posting the opening day depth chart soon after spring training.
