Elih Villanueva

Villanueva's inability to miss bats caught up to him big time at Triple-A. He got hit hard when he pitched in the zone, forcing him to nibble at the corners to survive and consequently sending his walk rate soaring. His one desperate big league start was more of the same, and the only thing keeping him in the Marlins' immediate plans is a lack of pitching depth in the upper minors. It will probably be a while before he even hints at having future fantasy value.
