Marlins placed OF Chris Coghlan on the 15-day disabled list with right calf irritation. Coghlan returned to the lineup on Saturday after missing a few days with the injury, but he wound up having to leave the game early. It's not clear how long he'll be sidelined. Logan Morrison has taken his spot on the roster.

Chris Coghlan was 0-for-3 but had a sacrifice fly in his return to action Saturday. Coghlan missed some time with a sore left calf, but he's expected to be fine. The outfielder has cooled off over the last couple games after being red-hot for a few weeks.

Chris Coghlan missed Wednesday's game due to a left calf soreness. Coghlan has been playing regularly in center field the last two weeks. The Marlins expect him to return to the lineup Friday against the Mets.

Chris Coghlan went 3-for-4 and knocked in two runs against the Mets on Saturday. Playing regularly these last two weeks, Coghlan has hit in eight straight and reached base in 14 straight games. If he keeps this up, he stands to start over Justin Ruggiano in center field after Giancarlo Stanton returns.

Chris Coghlan had a two-RBI triple and a solo homer in Tuesday's loss to the Rays. It's quite embarrassing that Coghlan, a .239/.307/.352 hitter since 2010 coming into the night, was batting in the No. 5 spot, but it certainly worked in this one. The outfielder has seen more playing time of late and is now batting .364 over his last 10 games.

After Chris Valaika got hurt, Chris Coghlan made his first appearance at second base since 2010 on Tuesday. This would be more notable if Coghlan weren't hitting .185 with one RBI in 54 at-bats for the season. He's lucky he still has a roster spot at this point.

Chris Coghlan hit a walkoff RBI single in the Marlins' defeat of the Phillies on Saturday in Miami. Coghlan smacked a hard grounder past Phillies second baseman Chase Utley to drive in the winning run. He will get the bulk of playing time in center field while Justin Ruggiano is sidelined but holds little fantasy value. Coghlan is a .270/.339/.394 career hitter in the majors.

The Marlins will use Chris Coghlan and Justin Ruggiano in a platoon in center field at the start of the season. That's bad news for Ruggiano's fantasy owners, as he'll be on the short side of the platoon. Coghlan has done very little for the Marlins since winning NL Rookie of the Year honors back in 2009, but the Marlins will give him a shot after he batted .306/.338/.468 with a homer and seven RBI this spring. He's hitting second in the Marlins' Opening Day lineup.

Chris Coghlan has made the Marlins' 25-man roster. The 2009 National League Rookie of the Year has batted just .207/.274/.320 in 403 plate appearances since the start of the 2011 season. He'll be a backup outfielder.

Chris Coghlan is 3-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI against the Braves on Sunday. Coghlan is a big long shot to overtake Justin Ruggiano for a spot in the Opening Day lineup, but he could be kept as a bench player after spending most of last year in Triple-A. The 2009 NL Rookie of the Year is hitting .344 in 32 at-bats this spring.
