Robby Snelling Being Lined Up to Start on Friday Against Nationals?
Things are lining up for Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling to be called up from Triple-A Jacksonville to make his major-league debut on Friday against the division-rival Washington Nationals, according to Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald. The Marlins have an opening in their starting rotation after they designated the struggling Chris Paddack for assignment on Tuesday. Lefty Braxton Garrett is also a candidate to join Miami's rotation, but it looks like the 22-year-old Snelling will get the first crack at it after dominating so far at Triple-A this year. The former first-rounder by the San Diego Padres in 2022 has a sparkling 1.86 ERA and 0.89 WHIP with 44 strikeouts and 15 walks in 29 innings across his six starts at Triple-A. Per MLB Pipeline, Snelling is Miami's No. 2 prospect, behind only lefty Thomas White. If Snelling fares well in his MLB debut on Friday, he could stick around in the Fish's rotation for multiple starts. Snelling is only rostered in 16% of Yahoo leagues, so if you need an upside arm, he's definitely worth a pickup.
