News and Notes

Jun 30
Hermida has lost his starting spot in right field against left-handed pitching -- at least temporarily -- to Brett Carroll, the Miami Herald reports. Recommendation: "My job isn't to make the lineup," Hermida said. "My job is to go out there and play when I'm in it and try to help this team win. I talked to him a little about it. It's tough when you struggle a little bit, and then have to sit a little bit. (I want to) do what's best for the team, and I'm all for that. It's not that I'm selfish or anything." Entering Tuesday's game, Hermida has just two hits in his last 30 at-bats. He'll need to shake out of his current slump in order to save off some of the Marlins' younger options later this season. |

RF Jeremy Hermida was hitting .230 against lefties when he went 0-for-2 Sunday against Tampa LH David Price. The Marlins are in the midst of a stretch in which they face five lefties in nine games. "He's our regular right fielder and he has to play," manager Fredi Gonzalez said. |
