Manager: Fredi Gonzalez (fourth season).
2009: 87-75, second place, National League East
He’s Here: RHP Derrick Turnbow,
RHP Jose Veras,
RHP Seth McClung,
INF Danny Richar,
INF Jorge Jimenez.
He’s Outta Here: 1B Nick Johnson,
RF Jeremy Hermida,
RHP Matt Lindstrom,
RHP Kiko Calero,
CF Alfredo Amezaga,
1B Ross Gload.
What To Watch For: The Marlins are set at the top of the rotation
with Josh Johnson,
who signed a $39 million, four-year contract in January, and RHP Ricky
Nolasco.
The battle for the other three spots will be the focus of spring training,
with the Marlins hoping for improvement from youngsters Chris Volstad and
Andrew Miller.
The biggest position battle will be at 1B between prospects Gaby Sanchez and
Logan Morrison. There’s also a lot of sorting out to do in the bullpen. CF
Cameron Maybin again will be given a chance to win a starting job, and the
middle of the order is set with the return of 2B Dan Uggla,
3B Jorge Cantu and OF Cody Ross.

Attending a game at Roger Dean Stadium
www.rogerdeanstadium.com
Roger Dean Stadium boasts one of the most pleasant main plazas in front of any ballpark in Spring Training, with charming walkways, palm trees and flowers in abundance. It is sure to put you in a good mood for the baseball inside. There is an intimacy at the Jupiter stadium that can't be found any closer than beyond the first- and third-base lines, where fans (mainly kids) have ample opportunity to secure autographs during the game from pitchers in the bullpen. In fact, one can practically reach out and touch the relief pitchers -- it's that close. The wall separating the players from fans is that short.
The Marlins are at
Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, Florida, partnering with the St. Louis Cardinals
on a $28 million Spring Training Complex/ Stadium specially designed to house
two Major League Baseball teams. The complex is the only two team facility in
the State of Florida. The stadium can accommodate
approximately 7,000 fans and features Luxury Skybox, Field Box, Loge Box,
Bleacher, and Grass Berm seating, parking and concessions.
