Puk (0-4) took the loss Friday against the Cubs, allowing seven runs on seven hits and three walks over three innings. He struck out four.
Advice: It was another short outing for Puk on Friday as Chicago scored three runs over the first two innings before putting up a four spot in the third. Puk's now dropped his first four starts of the year while failing to pitch more than 4.2 innings. The left-hander sports an ugly 9.22 ERA with a 2.63 WHIP while issuing a league-high 17 walks across 13.2 innings. With Braxton Garrett (shoulder) inching closer to a return, the Marlins could elect to move Puk back to the bullpen, where he had considerably more success last season.
