Marlins purchased the contract of RHP Kevin Slowey from Triple-A New Orleans. Slowey won the fifth spot in the Marlins' rotation with a strong spring, as he held a 2.41 ERA while striking out nearly a batter per inning. The righty has started just eight games in the majors since 2011, but it wouldn't be too surprising if he winds up being relevant in NL-only leagues.
