MIAMI -- Jose Fernandez, a good-hitting pitcher, has faced right-hander Andrew Cashner before.I didnt like it at all, Fernandez said of the experience.The Miami Marlins, who on Friday acquired Cashner as the centerpiece of a seven-player trade with the San Diego Padres, are hoping that opposing hitters will hate the experience, too.Miami also acquired right-handers Colin Rea, who will start Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals, and Tayron Guerrero, who was sent to Double-A Jacksonville.Rea, 26, made his major-league debut last year, going 2-2 with a 4.26 ERA. This year, he is 5-5 with a 4.98 ERA.On Saturday, Rea will face Cardinals right-hander Jaime Garcia, who will make his 21st start of the season, the most he has had since getting 32 starts in 2011.Garcia leads the National League in ground-ball percentage (58.7). He has also induced 16 double plays, which ranks fourth in the NL. He has fared well in five career starts against the Marlins, going 2-0 with a 1.99 ERA. Thats the sixth-best ERA against the Marlins among active pitchers.Thats a tough matchup for Rea, and it wont get any easier for Cashner when he makes his Marlins debut on Sunday. The Cards will counter with right-hander Carlos Martinez (10-6, 2.87 ERA).Marlins GM Michael Hill said Friday that he believes Miami is a playoff team, and thats why he gave up so much in the trade -- including his organizations top hitting prospect (first baseman Josh Naylor) and two pitchers who can throw 100 mph (Luis Castillo and Carter Capps). Veteran right-hander Jarred Cosart was also sent to the Padres.Andrew has pitched at the top of a rotation, Hill said. We felt he was the most impactful target in the (trade) market.It was a big trade for our team.Cashner is 4-7 this year with a 4.76 ERA -- not impressive numbers. But he went 10-9 with a 3.09 ERA in 31 starts in 2013 and 5-7 with a 2.55 ERA in 19 starts the next year.Things have gone south for Cashner since then, but he has been better in his past three starts, posting a 2.55 ERA with 23 strikeouts and three walks. His fastball averages 94.1 mph, the kind of power stuff the Marlins prefer.We wanted to get someone who is hot, Hill said, and that did play into it as we agreed on Andrew.Hill said Marlins manager Don Mattingly was part of the trade-evaluation process. Mattingly knows Cashner well -- they competed against each other in the NL West when the former was the manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers.The Marlins had a long list of trade targets before settling on the Padres offer that included Guerrero, a 25-year-old with a 100 mph fastball.Hill said it wasnt easy to trade for an established starting pitcher such as Cashner.The asking prices -- the starting pitching market is very competitive, Hill said. We knew we were going to have to give up very good players if we were going to accomplish our goals.Now that the deal is done, we will see how it plays out on the field. The Marlins and Cardinals are in a tough fight -- as it currently stands -- for the second and final NL wild-card playoff spot.St. Louis, after winning the first two of the four-game series, leads Miami by one game in that pursuit.But the Marlins, who have acquired three major-league pitchers -- Cashner, Rea and a previous deal with San Diego for reliever Fernando Rodney -- in the past few weeks, have at least proved they are serious about making a postseason push.

William Carrier opened the scoring for Cape Breton (6-4-2), but Andrew Ryan tied the game and Brent Andrews put the Mooseheads (8-6-0) in front for good with a short-handed goal at 13:49 of the second period. Glen Rice Jersey . That left plenty of energy for pitching books and swatting away free agency questions.

The 18-year-old American had five birdies in her bogey-free round for a 17-under total of 196. Lee held the overnight lead but mixed three birdies with two bogeys for a 70.Louis van Gaal will be sorely missed by Manchester Uniteds youngsters, according to former Red Devils defender Jonny Evans. United sacked Van Gaal on Monday evening after two frustrating years at the Old Trafford and is expected to be succeeded by former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho. Saturdays FA Cup triumph over Crystal Palace was the Dutchmans first piece of silverware at the club and Evans expects his absence to be felt most by the group of youngsters he brought through from the academy into the United first-team squad. Van Gaal handed Premier League debuts to a number of Uniteds academy stars this season, including soon-to-be England international Marcus Rashord, and Evans insists his former manager is an extremely popular figure among the players at Old Trafford, despite his troubles at the club. Im pleased for Van Gaal that he won the FA Cup, Evans told Sky Sports News HQ.I think hes a very good coach and I was pleased to see his team win something. LVGs key moments Where did it all go wrong for Louis van Gaal? A lot of players will be sad to see him leave in a way, esppecially the younger players.dddddddddddd.Hes brought a lot of younger players into the squad and given them opportunities. He was very brave and very good at doing that.Evans joined West Brom last summer after nine years at United after initially coming through their esteemed academy. Evans spent nine years at Manchester United The Northern Ireland international did not feature in Van Gaals plans and has admitted the Dutchman was perhaps not the big personality that United need.With Mourinho is line to take charge before the weekend, Evans believes he could be the perfect fit at United.I think its something over the years people have been expecting to happen, he said.Hes definitely got the personality and the charisma for it. Sometimes a club like Manchester United need a big personality and Mourinho fits that bill.
