Marlins Promote Ogando, Ellington, Telis, Hood; Designate Raudel Lazo

By Jeff Todd | September 1, 2016 at 3:50pm CDT

The Marlins announced a series of roster moves to take advantage of expanded September rosters. The team recalled righties Nefi Ogando and Brian Ellington, along with catcher Tomas Telis, while also selecting the contract of outfielder Destin Hood. That last move required a 40-man spot, which was opened when Miami designated lefty Raudel Lazo.

Ogando, 27, has minimal major league experience but owns a 3.08 ERA in 52 2/3 career Triple-A frames. Ellington, 26, has permitted only ten earned runs over his 44 2/3 innings in the majors over the last two years, though he has accomplished that while compiling only 7.3 K/9 against 4.8 BB/9. He has struggled with command at Triple-A this year, but his upper-nineties fastball has helped him generate 14.0 K/9 in 34 2/3 frames at the highest level of the minors.

While those two players add depth to the Miami pen, Telis and Hood will represent additional options in the position player ranks. Telis has been productive at Triple-A, slashing .310/.362/.429 over 368 plate appearances, but has a long way to go to make up for the fact that the Fish parted with Sam Dyson to get him last year.

As for Hood, this represents his first major league action. The 26-year-old was once seen as a fairly promising prospect with the Nationals, but he hadn’t yet earned a call-up. His current .267/.316/.435 Triple-A slash doesn’t exactly scream “promotion,” but he has some speed and pop that could come in handy off of the bench.

Lazo reached the majors last year after a quality season at Triple-A. He fared well in a brief big league stint, but hasn’t yet been asked back despite some solid numbers. The 27-year-old Cuban has pitched at three levels of the minors this year, mostly at the highest, compiling a composite 2.68 ERA with 7.9 K/9 and 2.1 BB/9.

    I think you mean that Hood was once a promising prospect with the Nationals.

    Yeah Nationals of Jimbo “Leatherpants” Bowden known for his “Joy” riding and his Segway. Hood was a star football player but in Bowden’s small mind he was an athlete capable of playing any sport. Destin started out with some serious attitude problems struggling with learning how to hit and field at the pro level. A first round pick out of prep school by JimBo the moron. Yep same guy who signed Elijah Dukes telling ownership that he’d either end up in jail or be an AllStar. Yep. THAT GUY!
