The Cubs last played the Marlins May 21, 2025. They won that game 2-1. That was 471 days ago, so long ago that it was the day of Cade Horton’s second MLB start and Matt Mervis was the Marlins’ designated hitter. Things are, obviously, very different now for both teams. The good news here is […]

The Cubs (79-62) managed to split their series with the first-place Brewers at Wrigley Field this week to stay near the top Wild Card spot. With the division largely decided barring a massive Milwaukee collapse, the focus can shift to securing home-field advantage in the first round of the playoffs and trying to stabilize the …

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 10, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (Marlins) 9 — F/10 The Jumbo Shrimp struck for two in the top of the tenth, but Norfolk walked it off in the bottom half. José Barrero trimmed the lead to one with a base hit, and Brandon Butterworth stepped in with the tying and go-ahead runs in […]
Despite falling behind early, the Royals fought back thanks to the arm of Michael Wacha and timely hits by Carter Jensen and Jac Caglianone to win the third and final game of their series against the Miami Marlins, 7-3. The win improves the Royals record to 63-78. Which means, of course, that the Royals will […]
Lately, I’ve been writing game discussions and recaps after unfortunate events. Last Thursday, I wrote the game thread the day after the nine-game winning streak snapped. Today, it’s following the end of five straight series wins. But that’s okay. Listen, if you were thinking that the Royals could make the playoffs during this stretch of […]
The Marlins announced that they have recalled infielder Deyvison De Los Santos and designated fellow infielder Leo Jiménez for assignment. Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reported the moves prior to the official announcement. The Fish acquired Jiménez from the Blue Jays at the start of this season, after Toronto had designated him for assignment. Miami sent […]
The Braves, Mets, Marlins, Phillies and Nationals could all lose valuable MLB free agents after the month of September, or in some cases the MLB Playoffs.
Connor Norby finally had an opportunity to square off against someone who will be forever linked to him. Back in July 2024, when Norby was with Baltimore—the team that drafted him in the second round that year—the native of Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, was traded to the Miami Marlins for Orioles pitcher Trevor Rogers. While still […]

The Braves did something Wednesday afternoon they haven’t done in a long time — score more than six runs. You have to go all the way back to August 6th against the Marlins to find the last time that happened, which is even more remarkable considering they won seven straight games at one point during […]
Triple-A: Jacksonville JumboShrimp (Marlins) 8, Norfolk Tides 4 It’s been a tough adjustment to Triple-A for Tides starter Juaron Watts-Brown, and it didn’t get much better here. Over 4.2 innings he allowed seven runs on six hits, four walks, five strikeouts, and three home runs. The relievers behind him were solid overall. The rehabbing Félix […]
After a 5 run first inning, Kansas City had a multi-run lead for over half the game. The Marlins kept chipping away inning after inning to eventually win 9-6. It was a very exciting beginning to the game tonight, though it was both the good and bad type of exciting. Noah Cameron had a breaking […]
Only 23 games to go on this Royal season and I guess the goal at this point is to win 11 of them an avoid 90 losses? Today offers another opportunity for a win with newly resurgent Noah Cameron trying to continue his run of dominance that started back on July 24th. Since then, he […]
Diamondbacks News Phillies Win Series, Separation from DiamondbacksIt seems Corbin Carroll’s back is giving him issues, something that is going to need to be addressed in a hurry if the Diamondbacks are going to retain a playoff berth. Diamondbacks Jockey with Padres, Marlins for Wild CardIt would certainly behoove the Diamondbacks to get back to […]
A reversed balk call cost the Royals a run in a loss to the Marlins, writes Anne Rogers. In a 1-0 count against Jac Caglianone — who could very likely be the August American League Player of the Month — Vodnik stepped off the mound. But as he did so, his right cleat caught the […]
Today, the Kansas City Royals and Miami Marlins are playing baseball on the surface of the sun. It is triple digits and humid here at Kauffman Stadium today. Even in the shaded dugout, I was wilting as I stood listening to the Matt Quatraro and JJ Picollo press conferences. There are a couple of interesting […]
After winning three out of four against the Marlins, the Nats homestand continues with another NL East matchup. The boys have a quick two game series against the Braves before a much needed off day. As we enter September, the Nats will have to dig deep and finish strong here. We are getting a new […]
The Marlins have the second-lowest payroll in baseball and the fourth-youngest lineup. Just six players on their active roster are homegrown, many acquired through trades or waiver claims. They were 26-34 through the first two months, but had a red-hot June where they won 20 of 26. Had it not been for a 12-game losing […]
The Marlins announced that infielder Xavier Edwards has been placed on the ten-day injured list with a left thumb sprain. Manager Clayton McCullough said yesterday that Edwards was likely dealing with a thumb sprain, as MLBTR covered. Infielder Jared Serna has been recalled to take his place on the active roster and will be making […]
This series has already seen plenty of twists and turns. Now we are in for a grand finale of this four game set between the Nats and Marlins. After yesterday’s 9th inning meltdown, the Nats will look to bounce back and win three out of four. The Marlins are looking to salvage a split. CJ […]
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Miami Marlins were on the verge of losing the first three games of a four-game set with the Washington Nationals on Sunday. They trailed 2-0 entering the top of the ninth inning, but a huge six-run rally, which may be better described as a complete meltdown by the Nats’ bullpen, gave […]

The Marlins scored six runs in the ninth inning to secure a 6-2 comeback win over the Nationals on Sunday, but may have lost one of their key players in the process. Second baseman Xavier Edwards left the game in the fifth inning due to an injury that “right now we’re thinking it’s a left […]
The Miami Marlins remain within striking distance of a Wild Card in the National League, and that's due in large part to the return to prominence of former Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara. At 13-8, with a 3.46 ERA, and a 2.29 ERA in the second half over his last nine crucial starts, it's clear why the Marlins continually fended off any trade offers for their veteran ace. Alcantara, the 2022 Cy Young Award winner, missed the 2024 season due to Tommy John surgery, and struggled in his return las...
After the Nats first walk off of the season yesterday, we are getting another first today. CJ Abrams is making his much anticipated debut at second base. It has been over two weeks since the initial announcement, but Abrams is finally at his new position. Hopefully that can re-ignite his offense. As mentioned, CJ Abrams […]
