Marlins designate Lamb, recall OF Petersen

Baseball Betting Lines

07/18/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Florida Marlins designated veteran infielder Mike Lamb for assignment on Sunday.

The team will have 10 days to trade, waive or release Lamb. If he clears waivers, he can be outrighted to the minor leagues.

Lamb, 34, was hitting a mere .184 with four runs batted in over 39 games this season. In 975 career games, the utilityman is a .276 hitter with 69 homers and 349 RBI with Texas, Houston and the Marlins.

To fill the roster spot, the club recalled outfielder Bryan Petersen from Triple-A New Orleans. The move gives the Marlins some outfield depth after reigning Rookie of the Year winner Chris Coghlan was forced to leave Saturday's game with back pain.

Petersen spent 12 games with the big league club earlier this year, but hit only .063 (1-for-16).
