Miami Marlins starter Jose Urena looks to bounce back from a rough Opening Day start where he was hit early and often. Urena, who led the club with 14 wins last season, gave up five earned runs in only four innings of work against the Cubs, including a home run to Chicago's Ian Happ on the first pitch of the new season.

If he wants his first win of the year, he'll have to get it against the mighty Chris Sale.

Starting pitcher Jose Urena has already been named the Miami Marlins Opening Day starter, though he's looking to regroup from an ugly spring. Marlins skipper Don Mattingly tabbed Urena as the team's No. 1 starter last week, so a stumble in spring training shouldn't be too concerning. In 7 1/3 innings, Urena has an 8.59 ERA to go with a 2.18 WHIP. He led the Marlins with 14 wins last year, a big reason why Mattingly wants him to begin the season as the team's ace. Urena looks to right the ship on Saturday as he takes the mound against the Houston Astros.

Urena failed to escape the first inning in Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals, recording only one out and allowing six runs on six hits and two walks.

Jose Urena will be the Miami Marlins' Opening Day starter, according to MLB.com's Joe Frisaro. The move comes shortly after it was reported that Urena was competing with Dan Straily for the Opening Day start. Urena finished with a club-high 14 wins last year and a 3.82 ERA. While he notched a solid amount of wins, his 1.77 K/BB rate was not good at all. There is great reason to have hope for Urena, though. The 26-year-old fireballer began the 2017 season out of the bullpen, so it's rather impressive that he'll begin the 2018 season as Miami's ace.
