The 2023 MLB season is underway and Rice baseball alums are busy on the mound and at the plate. Here’s the latest from the MLB Owls.
J.T. Chargois – Miami Marlins
Chargois saw work in three games this week, operating as the Marlins’ opener twice. He did his job effectively on all three occasions. In his starts, he allowed one hit and struck out three, twirling a pair of scoreless first innings before being relieved. His third appearance was for just one batter. He struck him out on five pitches, four strikes.
Through September 12, Chargois has a 3.53 ERA with a 1.206 WHIP. He’s averaging 7.3 strikeouts per nine innings.
Dane Myers – Miami Marlins
Myers was called back up this week from AAA, seeing his first action on Wednesday, September 6 as a pinch hitter. He’s appeared in four games for the fish this week, collecting a double and scoring a run on six plate appearances. His double broke up what was a no-hitter at the time.
