| Marte not on verge of promotion: Despite poor offensive numbers from the Pirates, the team is not expecting to promote prospect Starling Marte from Triple-A Indianapolis to help jump start the offense. Were not jumping into anything or making any rash judgements, director of minor league operations Larry Broadway told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. There are things hes working on down there that are specific to what he needs to do before he comes up here. The game jumps when you move up to this level. If you dont have a solid foundation for plate discipline, it can get exposed quickly. Baseball Prospectus analyst Kevin Goldstein agrees with Broadway. Marte would be awful right now at the big league level, analyst Kevin Goldstein said. Big league pitchers would exploit him to no end. (Updated 05/16/2012) |

| Marte's biggest weakness right now is chasing pitches outside the strike zone. He's still nearly striking out once per game (27 Ks in 33 games). And it's not like Marte, who recently returned from a minor hand injury, is lighting the world on fire. He's batting just .261 with a .437 slugging percentage in 33 games. Marte did have a great spring, but he needs more Triple-A at-bats before his MLB debut. Marte is more of a long-term Fantasy keeper. He could be up later this summer, but Marte is only worth stashing in very deep seasonal formats. (Updated 05/16/2012). |
