Yes, we all know that the Marlins bullpen has sucked this year. Is anyone all that surprised? Not particularly, given the ragtag crew that the team brought in this offseason to pitch the high leverage innings. What has come as a surprise to me is the outrage of Marlins fans about how the bullpen situation has been handled. This particular FanPost on FishStripes got me thinking about...

The Cardinals have agreed to terms with left-handed reliever Renyel Pinto on a Minor League contract, pending a physical exam. Pinto was released by the Marlins after being designated for assignment on June 16.

Recent roster moves have taken the Marlins in a different direction. Now that Renyel Pinto has been designated for assignment, Taylor Tankersley is the lone lefty in a bullpen that is looking for overall consistency.

The Marlins designated Renyel Pinto for assignment. Some team will pick him up since he still strikes out about a batter per inning. Maybe there’s a pitching coach who can get his walks under control. He does hold a 2.70 ERA this year and 3.62 for his career. I wonder if there’s something deeper (like personality issues) to the release. Even if he doesn’t play...

The Marlins may have lost last night, but last night sure was a win for every Marlins fan. Just minutes after giving up a home run to the Rangers' Josh Hamilton in the 9th inning of a 3-6 mess, Renyel Pinto was exploded safely over a large body of water.Er, designated for assignment.Finally! Pinto, you see, is a reliever who's no relief at all. He's a lefty who can'...

According to Joe Frisaro of MLB.com, the Florida Marlins have designated left-handed pitcher Renyel Pinto. In Pinto’s place, the team has recalled right-handed pitcher Tim Wood from Triple-A New Orleans. Pinto posted a 2.70 ERA with 16 strikeouts and nine walks in 20 games this season.

The Florida Marlins designated reliever Renyel Pinto for assignment following Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Rangers.

What a great time to be a Marlins fan. In a span of nine days, much ballyhooed prospect Mike Stanton arrived and much maligned reliever Renyel Pinto departed. Wednesday will go down as a loss in the standings, but for those who live and die with the Fish the final outcome was a victory. It might not be a stretch to say Pinto was one of the most dispised players in franchise history...

The Florida Marlins on Tuesday activated pitcher Renyel Pinto from the 15-day disabled list.

Left-hander Renyel Pinto made his third rehab appearance for Class A Jupiter on Thursday with a start that Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez described as "Pinto-esque."

Before the deal was finalized, sending Dontrelle Willis to Arizona, the Marlins expressed interest in luring the D-Train back to South Florida. Ultimately, the Tigers dealt Willis to the D-backs for right-hander Billy Buckner. With Arizona, Willis gets a chance to remain in the rotation. Had the Marlins obtained the 28-year-old left-hander, he would have been an option to throw...

Sending outfielder Bryan Petersen to Triple-A New Orleans after Wednesday’s game was just the first in an avalanche of roster moves for the Florida Marlins.
