Games of March 6, 2013

Notable prospect performances from March 6, 2013.

NL EAST

Miami Marlins

• Alex Sanabia, SP: IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, K. Off to a strong start this spring (4.1 IP, 0 R, H, 0 BB, 4 K), Sanabia could push for a bullpen job or possibly even a rotation spot if they can start stretching him out.

Philadelphia Phillies

• Tommy Joseph, C: 3-for-4, 2B. Gearing up for this first Triple-A season with a 6-for-13 start to the spring, including a pair of singles against Nationals ace Stephen Strasburg on Wednesday.

Washington Nationals

• Anthony Rendon, SS: 1-for-3, HR (3). Now 8-for-20 in the spring with three homers and three doubles, Rendon also made a start at shortstop, which could indicate that the Nats want to see if he handle a possible utility role later in the season.
• Erik Davis, RP: IP, 0 R, 0 H, BB, 3 K. The 26 year-old has a tough task in trying to crack the Nationals’ 25-man roster, but he’s making quite an impression so far with 4.2 scoreless innings, seven strikeouts, and only a hit and two walks allowed.
