Marlins' JT Chargois: Opening Wednesday's game
Rotowire
Chargois will serve as the Marlins' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Chargois threw a scoreless inning the last time he was called on to serve as Miami's opener Aug. 27 against Washington. He'll likely remain Wednesday's game for no more than an inning or two before turning the contest over to the bullpen. The Marlins could turn to Bryan Hoeing to work in bulk relief behind Chargois or go with Edward Cabrera, who is with the Marlins' taxi squad and could be formally called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

Rotowire
Chargois was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to a strained right rib cage, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
The right-hander presumably suffered the injury during his last appearance Wednesday against the Phillies when he fired two scoreless frames. Chargois will be eligible to be reinstated Aug. 19, though it's unclear if he's expected to be healthy by that point.

Marlins' JT Chargois: Picks up fourth hold
Rotowire
Chargois recorded his fourth hold of the season in Sunday's win over the Phillies, not allowing a hit or a walk in two-thirds of an inning.
Jesus Luzardo got the hook with one out in the seventh inning after hitting Bryson Stott with a pitch, but Chargois quickly induced a double play from Edmundo Sosa. The right-hander hasn't seen much high-leverage usage this season, and over 12 innings since the beginning of June, Chargois has a 3.75 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 10:6 K:BB.
Chargois allowed two hits and a walk in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Angels.
Regular closer Dylan Floro had pitched three straight days and was likely unavailable Sunday, while Tanner Scott recorded four outs for a hold against the middle of the Angels' order. Chargois looked far from dominant, but a double play helped him out, and he got Mike Trout to pop up with two runners in scoring position to end the game. Chargois had allowed three runs over his previous 2.2 innings. He's at a 2.79 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 7:2 K:BB through 9.2 innings over 11 appearances, and he's added two holds in addition to his first save of the year. Chargois is unlikely to be in the long-term picture for saves.
