NL Notes: Marlins, Ramirez, Brewers

By Jeff Todd | August 14, 2015 at 10:40pm CDT

The Marlins are expected to ramp up their use of analytics, MLB.com’s Joe Frisaro writes, explaining that the organization may look to build out a full department for that purpose. Miami has been relying more on individual employees to provide statistical input, says Frisaro, but will seemingly aim for a more systematic approach.

More from the NL:

  • Miami has several needs to fill this offseason, especially in the pitching staff, Frisaro adds. But it’s not likely to go after big-name free agents. Instead, per the report, the Fish will probably aim for buy-low arms on the open market.
  • While he has yet to appear at first in a game, Pirates veteran Aramis Ramirez recently began working out at the unfamiliar position. As Stephen Nesbitt of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette explains, Pittsburgh has little to lose and plenty to gain from opening the possibility of utilizing Ramirez at first. With Josh Harrison and Jordy Mercer nearing a return, the team would have a highly versatile array of infielders.
  • Outgoing Brewers GM Doug Melvin says he’s not yet sure what role he will play in the team’s search for his replacement, as Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Meanwhile, current assistant GM Gord Ash says he’s hopeful of staying with the organization as well, though he is waiting to see what role he might have moving forward.

      Frisaro was just speculating, he has no source for his conjecture. You can read more about it on his blog:

        Your link leads to the exact page that the author had already linked above.. Click on the mlb.com link in the article and you will see.. MLBTR is usually pretty thorough and I am surprised that they wrote it as anything but speculation..

      It’s like a car company just now hiring an engineer to design hybrid engines.
