Connor Gillispie News: Pushed off 40-man

The Marlins designated Gillispie for assignment Thursday.

The 27-year-old lost his place in Miami's rotation in late April after posting an 8.65 ERA through six starts, and he'll now also lose his spot on the 40-man roster with Robinson Pina joining the Marlins' bullpen Thursday. Gillispie has turned in a 4.28 ERA over 33.2 innings in the minors this year, though his underwhelming MLB resume may prevent other teams from taking a chance on him.
