"For the first two months of the season, it looked like Javier Vazquez might have trouble keeping his spot in the Marlins' starting rotation.

On May 15, Vazquez's ERA reached a season-worst 7.55.

But since June 16, no Marlins starter has been more dependable than Vazquez, who has gone 4-3 with a 2.26 ERA, 41 strikeouts and 10 walks.

But despite his impressive turnaround, it's likely this season will be the 35-year old right-hander's last.

"I know what I want to do already. I've talked to my family about that and basically this could be my last year," Vazquez said Tuesday, a night after giving up just one earned run against the Mets over seven innings."
