Miami Marlins Top 50 Of All-Time: 19. Carl Pavano

Pavano was selected in the 13th round of the 1994 draft by the Boston Red Sox. He started his Major League career with the Montreal Expos in 1998, with whom he spent his first four-and-a-half seasons.

Over the next two seasons, Pavano was a regular part of the Marlins rotation, making 63 starts (out of 64 total appearances).

2003 saw Pavano post a 12-13 record with a 4.80 ERA. He also went 2-0 over eight games in the playoffs, keeping his ERA below 1.50 and helping the Marlins to their second World Series title.
