Gone Fishin' 5/5/19: Miami Marlins Minor League Report

The Miami Marlins were swept on Sunday by the Atlanta Braves. Starting pitching was solid, but again, the bullpen let the club down.

The Miami Marlins minor league feeder system, at the same time, got into four contests from Florida to Iowa to New Orleans to Mississippi.

Transactions

The New Orleans Baby Cakes activated SS JT Riddle from the seven-day injured list. That was the only transaction for the Miami Marlins system for the day.
