Braxton Garrett - Slated for three-inning sim gameGarrett (shoulder) will throw a three-inning and/or 50-pitch simulated game at extended spring training Tuesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

ImpactIt's not clear what the next step will be after that, but there would seem to be a chance Garrett would be ready to begin a rehab assignment. The left-hander has dealt with a left shoulder impingement since early on in spring training. He should rejoin the Marlins' rotation before the end of April.

ImpactTriolo remained in Sunday's game and said he's feeling a lot better Monday, but the team will hold him out just to be safe. The Pirates have an off day Tuesday, and it sounds like a safe bet that Triolo will be back in there Wednesday. Alika Williams is covering second base Monday.

Rowdy Tellez - Sitting versus leftyTellez is not in the lineup for Monday's game versus the Nationals.

Nick Gordon - Goes yard SundayGordon belted a pinch-hit solo home run off David Bednar in Sunday's extra-inning loss to Pittsburgh.

ImpactStepping to the plate for catcher Nick Fortes in the ninth inning and the Marlins down a run, Gordon got hold of a hanging splitter from the Pirates' closer and drove it over the fence in right field. The 28-year-old has appeared in three of Miami's first four games, starting two of them in left field, but he's only collected six total at-bats and seems stuck in a strict platoon role. Gordon's homer Sunday was his first hit of the season, and he's struck out three times.
