According to the Florida Marlins, the team has designated left-handed pitcher Dustin Richardson in order to make room for recently signed outfielder Dewayne Wise. In order to make room on the 25-man roster for Wise, the team optioned outfielder Chris Coghlan to Triple-A New Orleans.

The Marlins signed Wise on June 15.  He was released on June 9 from the Toronto Blue Jays.  Wise did not fit in the Blue Jays plans despite hitting .338 at Triple-A Las Vegas.
