Casey Kotchman will make his Grapefruit League debut Tuesday against the Mets. Kotchman needed four stitches to his left ring finger earlier this week. The injury appears to be behind him at this point and shouldn't be an issue going forward. Kotchman signed a minor league deal with the Marlins this offseason and is competing for an Opening Day bench spot.
