From the CPL
Former New Bern River Rats ace Tom Koehler (courtesy of the New Bern River Rats) saw his ultimate dream come true Wednesday night (September 5) as he debuted for the Miami Marlins.
The 6-2, 225-pound right-hander entered to start the sixth inning for the Marlins. He retired the side immediately, including a recording a strikeout, but then ran into trouble in the seventh. There, he gave up a pair of two-run homers before getting out of the inning.

Koehler becomes the ninth Coastal Plain League alum to make his major league debut during the 2012 season alone and the 57th overall. The CPL has now had 17 alums reach the majors in the last two years alone.

The Miami Marlins' bullpen is a crowded place these days with 10 relief pitchers eager for action. But manager Ozzie Guillen said he won't use his reliever just to cure their boredom. "Too bad," he said. "This is not spring training for me. I still get paid to win games and we are going to win as many games as we can." The Marlins are using a six-man...
