The Marlins officially recalled starting pitcher Justin Nicolino from Triple-A New Orleans to start Tuesday against the Red Sox in place of Jose Fernandez, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list due to a right biceps strain.
Following his demotion to the minors in early July after a two-start stint with Miami, the left-hander went 3-4 with a 4.91 ERA in seven starts with New Orleans.
