Bonifacio & VandenHurk up, Lamb DFAd, Carroll to join Zs

Lots of moves after the Mets completed a sweep of the Marlins today.

First and foremost, Stanton was called up, and to make room in a crowded outfield in which Stanton, Cody Ross, Cameron Maybin, and Chris Coughlan will have to share three spots, Florida sent Brett Carroll to New Orleans. Carroll hadn't been doing much in limited time in the show, and this will be his first seasoning in AAA since last summer.

Bonifacio's call-up leaves a hole at the top of the order (how about grooming Bryan Petersen as a leadoff hitter?). VandenHurk joins the parade of arms Florida is auditioning for any bullpen relief they can get. With Brad Stone recently placed on the DL, the Zs are down to Jones, Lawrence, and West as obvious starters. Jose Rosario, who has bounced between New Orleans and AA Jacksonville, will likely be given a shot. Not sure beyond that.

This is a bummer for Mike Lamb. With him and Lane gone, the Marlins seem to be purging the roster of veteran AAAA types.
