Pablo Lopez Shines Against Diamondbacks
Miami Marlins starter Pablo Lopez looked brilliant against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday in Miami. One of many budding aces on the Marlins staff, Lopez allowed one unearned run on three hits and two walks across five innings. Lopez is now the owner of a 2.04 ERA and 1.08 WHIP to go along with 40 […]
Yimi Garcia Earns Fifth Save For Marlins
Miami Marlins closer Yimi Garcia picked up his fifth save on Wednesday at home against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

He quickly shut the door afterward, as Asdrubal Cabrera lined out to right field to end […]
Jazz Chisholm Resumes Baseball Activities
Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm (hamstring) has resumed baseball activities. Chisholm was able to run in the outfield, take some groundballs, and do some batting practice. It was the first reported activity from Jazz since he was first placed on the injured list on April 28. Chisholm likely won't be ready to go right […]
EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 35: English Premier League
Last weekend told a familiar tale. One winner and two games where just one goal would've seen us clean up. Leicester City failed to beat Southampton despite the latter playing over 80 minutes with ten men. Leeds failed to score away from home for only the fourth time all season. Chelsea did win in a […]
Jesus Sanchez Gets Five Hits In Wednesday's Game
Miami Marlins outfield prospect Jesus Sanchez went 5-for-5 with a home run, a triple, and four RBI in Wednesday's Triple-A Jacksonville game. Sanchez is off to a great start, already recording seven hits through just two games. Sanchez got a chance to play a bit at the big league level in 2020, but was awful, […]

Bullpen Report: Struggling Closers Leading to Changes?
I have been playing a lot of MLB The Show lately and the one thing I have learned playing is - relievers are very important if you are going to play anything other than a standalone game! You need to not only have multiple options you can trust but the depth of many teams' bullpens […]

Miami Marlins outfielder Lewis Brinson had a great game in Tuesday's win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, going 2-for-4 with a double and a three-run home run. He ended up with three RBI and a run scored. Brinson has been getting a chance to play with Starling Marte (rib) on the injured list. It's been mostly […]
Brian Anderson Returns With A Home Run
Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson (oblique) was activated from the injured list before Tuesday's game and immediately contributed, blasting a three-run home run in the first inning. Anderson ended up 1-for-3 with the home run and a walk, two runs scored, and three RBI. He looked like he was heating up from his slow […]
Anthony Bass Unable To Get An Out On Tuesday
Miami Marlins relief pitcher Anthony Bass had a terrible outing in Tuesday's game, facing four batters without recording an out. Bass allowed one run on two hits and a walk, but it could have been much, much worse if he hadn't been bailed out by an amazing performance from Richard Bleier. Bass left the bases […]
Sandy Alcantara Throws Six Good Innings On Tuesday
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara was solid on Tuesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, picking up a quality start. Alcantara went six innings, allowing two runs (one earned) on six hits and a walk while striking out six. He lowered his ERA to 2.95 but did not factor into the decision since the Marlins did […]
NL-Only and AL-Only Waiver Wire for Week 6
It's getting to be a bit tougher out there on the waiver wire as the season progresses now to Week 6. The early season breakouts are now rostered at a rate that is too high for deep league consideration, and the names that are available in deeper leagues likely aren't going to be league-winners at […]

Jorge Alfaro Doing Running And Catching Drills
Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro (hamstring) has started doing running and catching drills in his rehab. There hadn't been much news about Alfaro since he was placed on the injured list, so it's good to know his rehab is progressing somewhat. Now that the minor league season is getting underway, the Marlins will likely have […]
Sixto Sanchez Ramping Up His Throwing Program
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) has ramped up his throwing program and is now throwing from flat ground at a distance of 105 feet. Sanchez has been dealing with shoulder inflammation and has not pitched yet this year. Assuming all goes well at this distance, the next step will be for him to […]
Brian Anderson To Be Activated On Tuesday
Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson (oblique) is expected to be activated from the injured list before Tuesday's game. Anderson suffered an oblique injury a little over a week ago, and while there was some concern he could miss extended time (as there is with most oblique injuries), Anderson was able to return quickly. He's […]
