Hand tossed a pair of scoreless and hitless innings Friday against the Braves, striking out three.

He was a little wild in this one, walking two batters and hitting another, but it was a stark improvement over his six-run disaster the last time he took the mound. Hand started 12 games for the Marlins last season, but with some added depth in the rotation and maturing youth coming up through the system, he's destined for a bullpen role. Despite a mediocre showing so far in Grapefruit League action, the veteran lefty is a strong bet to break camp with the club.
