Jesus Aguilar Goes Yard On Sunday

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar hit a two-run home run in Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Braves. Aguilar went 3-for-5 with two runs scored and two RBI. Aguilar's two-run homer came in the top of the ninth inning and looked like huge insurance runs until Marlins closer Yimi Garcia had other ideas in the […]

Adam Duvall Gets Three Hits And Drives In Four Runs

Miami Marlins outfielder Adam Duvall had a strong offensive game on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves. Duvall went 3-for-4 with a run scored and four RBI. He hit a three-run home run, two singles, and a sacrifice fly. If Duvall played every game as a visitor at Truist Park in Atlanta, he'd be in the […]

Yimi Garcia Has A Very Rough Sunday

Miami Marlins closer Yimi Garcia had a very rough outing in Sunday's loss to the Atlanta Braves. Garcia was brought into the ninth inning with a four-run lead, not a save situation. He got through the inning, but not before allowing four runs on four hits and three walks, throwing 38 pitches, 25 for strikes. […]

Zach Thompson Throws A Quality Start On Sunday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Zach Thompson had another strong start on Sunday, tossing six innings while allowing three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six. Thompson threw 87 pitches, 60 for strikes. The 27-year-old rookie has been excellent to start his career despite only mediocre numbers as a minor leaguer […]

John Curtiss Lands On 10-Day Injured List

Miami Marlins relief pitcher John Curtiss (neck) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday. At first glance, this isn't significant news, but Curtiss has been solid out of the bullpen for Miami. This season, Curtiss is posting a 2.67 ERA and 1.16 WHIP over 33 2/3 innings with 34 strikeouts. There has […]

Jazz Chisholm Enters Game As Defensive Replacement

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm (ankle) entered Sunday's contest in the ninth inning as a defensive replacement and replaced Joe Panik at second base, according to Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald. Chisholm had been held out of the lineup on Sunday after he tweaked his ankle and exited Saturday's game early, but this […]

Jazz Chisholm Sitting Sunday After Early Exit

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm (ankle) is not in the lineup for Sunday's finale with Atlanta after he tweaked his ankle in Saturday's contest and was forced to exit early. As of now there's no new word on his condition, so managers should continue to consider him day-to-day. While Chisholm sits, Joe Panik is […]

Yimi Garcia Picks Up Save Number 13 On Saturday

Miami Marlins closer Yimi Garcia saved his 13th game of the season in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara pitched very well on Saturday, picking up a win in a quality start. Alcantara went six innings, allowing one run (zero earned) on five hits and four walks while striking out four.

Anthony Bender Strikes Out All Six On Friday

Miami Marlins rookie relief pitcher Anthony Bender struck out all six batters he faced in Friday's game against the Atlanta Braves.

Sixto Sanchez's Timetable Remains Murky

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) has been steadily throwing at 120 feet, according to MLB.com's Christina De Nicola. Sanchez was shut down earlier this year and has yet to play. Though he's back on the rehab trail after suffering a brief setback with shoulder inflammation, there's still no timetable for the 22-year-old right-hander's return. […]

Second-Half Breakouts: Examining June's K-BB% Leaders

In my last article, I mentioned that K-BB% is one of my favorite stats for looking at a pitcher's in-season performance. There are two main reasons for that. First, it stabilizes quickly and has a proven correlation to a pitcher's overall success. Second, it's impossibly simple. If a pitcher has a high strikeout rate (K%), […]

The Bigger Picture - Where We've Gone Wrong This Year

Expectations are a dangerous thing. They can dictate our decision-making processes well into the future and prevent us from seeing things as they truly are. The baseball season is the longest of any professional team sport, spanning eight full months including spring training. That means a lot will change throughout the course of the season […]

Pablo Lopez Gets Tossed After One Pitch Friday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez was ejected after just one pitch Friday night in a 1-0 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Lopez beaned Ronald Acuna Jr. in the back of the left arm with a "poorly executed sinker" to start – and end – his evening. To make matters worse, Acuna also came around […]
