S Adeiny Hechavarria (oblique) is about two weeks from returning from the disabled list. Hechavarria, 28, is a Gold Glove-caliber defender who doesn't offer much on offense. His career OPS is .629 and it's at .672 this year. Still, the Marlins are just 6-11 with "Hech" at shortstop this season. He could be trade bait in July if the Marlins continue to be out of the playoff race.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria (oblique strain) was placed on the disabled list for the second time this season. Hechavarria is hitting .277 with a .672 OPS. However, his value is mostly as a defensive shortstop.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria (oblique strain) took grounders in pregame warm-ups on Saturday and appears ready to start a rehab assignment on Monday, possibly rejoining the team in about a week. Hechavarria is a Gold-Glove-caliber shortstop who often struggles offensively. His replacement during his time on the disabled list is Miguel Rojas, who is also an outstanding defensive player but is hitting .385. Until Rojas cools down, it is unlikely Marlins manager Don Mattingly will be in any rush to get "Hech" back in the lineup every day.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria (left oblique) was placed on the 10-day disabled list Sunday. Hechavarria said he suffered the injury during batting practice prior to Saturday's 8=1 win over the Mets, but he played thorough it and went 2-for-4. Manager Don Mattingly said the team knew it would be more than a one- or two-day injury for Hechavarria but that team trainer Dustin Luepker expressed hope Sunday that the injury wasn't too serious. Hechavarria is batting .200 with one RBI in 20 at-bats this season.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria is one of the most spectacular fielders in the game. But that is often not enough for certain teams, and the Marlins may be looking to trade him for starting pitching. "Hech", while still only 27, does little on offense. He doesn't run well (one steal), he doesn't hit for power (three homers), he doesn't draw many walks (33), and his OPS of .594 was the second-worst of his career.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria, a stellar fielder, was rested in favor of Miguel Rojas. Hechavarria's career OPS is .635 but it's .559 this August, his worst month of the year. He also has a .723 road OPS this year but just .524 at home.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria had an RBI triple in four at-bats Wednesday. He needs two more hits to reach the 500 career mark. He had four hits and scored three runs during the two-game series at Detroit. Hechavarria also made a leaping grab of a Miguel Cabrera liner. "He made a great play," Cabrera said. "He's one of the top defensive shortstops in the league."

SS Adeiny Hechavarria batted leadoff spot for only the fifth time this season Thursday. He went 0-for-2 but drew two walks. In addition, Miami, after a 4-2 victory over the Cubs on Thursday, is 4-1 when Hechavarria bats leadoff.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria, who had Miami's game-winning RBI on Wednesday and had a triple and a run on Thursday, is batting only .250. however, that doesn't tell Hechavarria's full value -- not even close. First, Hechavarria is a highly regarded defensive shortstop who could win multiple Gold Gloves by the time he is done. Second, he usually bats in the eighth spot -- just in front of the pitcher -- which is the worst spot in the lineup. Pitchers can -- and often do -- work around the eight-hole hitter to get the relatively easy out behind him. That can cause an eight-hole hitter to get frustrated and swing at pitches outside the zone. But "Hech" has kept his poise, and he ranks among the National League leaders in batting average from the seventh inning and later.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, thriving in the leadoff spot. In his last 11 games, he's hitting .400 to raise his season average from .205 to .257, and he hadn't hit a home run off a lefty in nearly a year.

SS Adeiny Hechavarria had another bad day offensively Saturday, going 0-for-4. On Friday, he was criticized for being thrown out trying to stretch a single into a double with Miami trailing 4-1 in the seventh inning. "You have to play the scoreboard there," Marlins manager Don Mattingly said.

Hechavarria (hamstring) remains out of the lineup Saturday, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Hechavarria has missed nearly the entire month of September with a troubling hamstring injury and with the Marlins set to finish up their final series of the season this weekend, it's unlikely Hechavarria will make a return to the team this year.
