Adam Duvall Hits His Second Home Run On Monday

Miami Marlins outfielder Adam Duvall hit his second home run of the season in Monday's 10-inning win over his former team, the Atlanta Braves. Overall, he went 1-for-3 with the solo home run and two walks. Duvall isn't off to a great start with his new team, hitting just .160 with a .690 OPS and […]

Garrett Cooper Drives In Thee Runs On Monday

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper was very productive in Monday's extra-inning win over the Atlanta Braves. Cooper went 3-for-5 with three RBI. He hit a double and two singles, including an extra-inning RBI knock that solidified the Marlins lead in the top of the 10th inning. He hasn't been having great at-bats yet this […]

Yimi Garcia Earns The Win On Monday

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Yimi Garcia pitched well and earned a win in relief in Monday's extra-inning victory over the Atlanta Braves. Garcia pitched 1 1/3 innings, allowing just a walk while striking out one. He inherited two base runners and stranded them both. Garcia came in to get the last out of the ninth inning […]

Anthony Bass Gets Two Outs In Monday's Game

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Anthony Bass got two outs in Monday's win over the Atlanta Braves. Bass, who was the Marlins closer until he blew his first two save chances in ugly fashion, came in to pitch the seventh inning after starter Sandy Alcantara was only able to get the first out of the inning. […]

Dylan Floro Continues To Impress On Monday

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Dylan Floro continued his strong start to the season on Monday night, tossing a perfect inning with two strikeouts. Floro came on to pitch the seventh inning and did so with no issue, needing 18 pitches to set the Braves down in order. Floro has been the best part of the […]

Sandy Alcantara Manages A Quality Start On Monday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara pitched well on Monday against the Atlanta Braves, earning a quality start. In total, Alcantara tossed 6 1/3 innings, allowing three runs on four hits. He walked three and struck out four. Alcantara was not at his best in this one, but he was able to pitch around not […]

Jorge Alfaro Scratched From The Lineup

Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro (hamstring) was a late scratch from the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Manager Don Mattingly had Alfaro in the lineup at first, but he will be replaced by Chad Wallach behind the plate and in the eighth spot in the batting order. The Marlins have catcher […]

Edward Cabrera Progressing In Rehab

Miami Marlins top pitching prospect Edward Cabrera (biceps) is progressing in his rehab at the Marlins Low-A Jupiter, Florida, site. Cabrera has been throwing from 75 feet, putting him slightly ahead of fellow top pitching prospect Sixto Sanchez (shoulder), who is throwing from 45 feet for now. Cabrera should proceed to throwing off a mound […]

Sixto Sanchez Continuing Rehab

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) is continuing his rehab in Jupiter, Florida, where the Marlins Low-A affiliate, the Jupiter Hammerheads, play. Sanchez has been throwing from 45 feet with "no issue", per beat writer Jordan McPherson. Sanchez is one of the top pitching prospects in the game and showed plenty of his upside […]

Jorge Alfaro Back In The Lineup On Monday

Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup on Monday, batting eighth. Alfaro missed four games (including Sunday's suspended game) with hamstring tightness and there was some thought that he might be headed to the injured list. He must have recovered quickly over the weekend though, and will be back in […]

The Cut List: Week 3 - Time to Let Go?

Welcome to the Cut List. This is our weekly article looking at players who fantasy managers should consider cutting from their teams. We'll look at players who are worthy of a drop, worth monitoring for replacing and someone on the hot seat but worth holding on to... for now. Moving forward, we'll also revisit the previous […]

Bullpen Report: What We Learned in Week 2

Relievers have become more and more important in fantasy baseball in recent years. First, with starting pitchers being limited to fewer innings than ever, it leads to relievers seeing an uptick in usage. All of a sudden, a good reliever could give you similar innings to a fringe starting pitcher, but with better ratios and […]

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups For Week 3

We’re only nine days into the 2021 regular season, but there has already been plenty of roster shuffling and player movement this year. Although fantasy managers shouldn’t make decisions based exclusively on less than two weeks of samples, there is one notable league-wide issue worth exploring before diving into this week: the ball. As you […]

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

After two weeks of the 2021 MLB season, or really one and a half weeks, fantasy and real-world players are still feeling out the season. Trends are forming as we await larger samples to make declarations. Starting pitchers are still getting stretched out, and managers have yet to settle on substitution patterns. As we said […]

2B and SS Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

We're 10 days into the season, but it's never too early to start tinkering around the edges. Hopefully you grabbed Ryan McMahon in time for his three-homer game last week. He's now rostered in over three-quarters of Yahoo leagues, and after going deep again on Saturday that number is likely to rise. Not every player […]
