Brandon Kintzler Escapes With His Third Save On Thursday

Miami Marlins closer Brandon Kintzler earned his third save of the season in Thursday's win over the Baltimore Orioles. He wasn't great, allowing a run on three hits, but he was able to record three outs and save the 8-7 win for the red hot Marlins. Kintzler makes for a better "real life" closer than […]

Jordan Yamamoto Struggles In Thursday's Start

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto struggled in his first start of the season on Thursday, lasting just four innings while allowing four runs on six hits. He struck out four and did not allow a walk but did give up two home runs. Yamamoto got in trouble last season when he threw too many […]

Brian Anderson Drives In Three Runs On Thursday

Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson drove in three runs in Thursday's win, going 2-for-4 with a triple and a single. Anderson is off to a hot start, now hitting .304 with a 1.060 OPS. Anderson should continue to hit in the middle of a suddenly-somewhat-impressive Marlins lineup and could be a key piece on […]

Jonathan Villar Has His First Big Day As A Marlin

Miami Marlins infielder/outfielder Jonathan Villar had his first big game as a Marlin on Thursday, going 3-for-5 out of the leadoff spot. Villar, in the lineup as the designated hitter for this one, hit a home run, scoring a run and driving in two. He'd been struggling a bit in a Marlins uniform, but today's […]

Monte Harrison Showcases Elite Speed With First Career Hit

Miami Marlins outfielder Monte Harrison has likely already been snatched in the vast majority of keepers leagues, but he may become a commodity in any season-long format should his tremendous speed translate to the Majors like it did Thursday. Harrison collected his first big league hit, unveiling 29.9 ft/sec sprint speed down the line; for […]

Thursday represents one of the more tumultuous slates of the young 2020 season due to the uncertainty surrounding many starting pitchers across the league.

We have yet to play two full weeks of the Major League Baseball season but we’ve already witnessed a great many things in 2020 — some good, some not so good. But, on the plus side, this crazy season — and its 30-man rosters — has afforded quite a few opportunities to MLB rookies, especially […]

Jordan Yamamoto To Start On Thursday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto will get the start for Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The game will be played in Baltimore, but the Marlins will be the home team as they go for a four-game sweep. Yamamoto had signs of excellence last season, but struggled with consistency and developed some control issues […]

Brian Anderson Hits A Home Run On Wednesday

Miami Marlins infielder Brian Anderson hit his second home run of the season in Game 1 of Wednesday's double header against the Baltimore Orioles. Anderson's solo shot was the only run of the game, as the Marlins went on to win 1-0 on their way to a sweep of the double header. Anderson is hitting […]

Brandon Kintzler Picks Up His Second Save

Miami Marlins closer Brandon Kintzler picked up his second save of the season in Game 1 of Wednesday's double header. Kintzler became the first Marlins pitcher to pitch just the seventh inning and earn a save. While he won't strike out a ton of hitters, Kintzler is good at getting guys out and should hold […]

Elieser Hernandez A Streaming Candidate Wednesday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Elieser Hernandez will get the ball Wednesday versus the Orioles for his first start of the 2020 season in a streamable matchup. Baltimore hitters have hit relatively well so far this season, but they remain a very beatable lineup as seen by the shutout pitched by the Marlins in Tuesday’s game. […]

The stream machine rolls on for another day! We're going to continue to exploit Coors and take advantage of favorable platoon splits. Let's get it!

Jorge Alfaro Tested Positive For COVID-19

Miami Marlins catcher Jorge Alfaro admitted to his teammates that he tested positive for COVID-19 in late-July in a video meeting. He was scratched and placed on the injured list before the team's Opening Day game on July 24, and now we have the official reason why. It's unclear when Alfaro will return, but for […]

Pablo Lopez Starting For The Marlins On Tuesday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez will get the start on Tuesday as the Marlins return to the field after having their season paused due to 18 positive COVID-19 tests. The Marlins have not played since last Sunday, and will enter August 4th with a 2-1 record. While the Marlins will have an almost brand […]

Jordan Yamamoto Recalled

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto will be recalled from the teams training site. Yamamoto made his debut in 2019 and went 4-5 with a 4.46 ERA over 15 starts. With the Marlins missing a good chunk of players to COVID-19, Yamamoto will likely enter the rotation. Yamamoto is best suited in deeper NL-only leagues […]

Marlins Get All Negative Tests Again On Monday

The Miami Marlins had all of their COVID-19 tests come back negative on Monday. That makes three days in a row of all negative tests for the Marlins. The team had an outbreak where 18 players tested positive, causing their entire season to go on pause after just three games. Given no new surprises, the […]

First Base and Third Base Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

Entering week three, we are entering a ton of unknowns. Which players have COVID-19? Which schedules will be altered? Who is pitching which days? Essentially, it is chaos and we need to embrace the craziness. Before we dive in, we need to keep a few things in mind: We focus on players rostered in 5x5 […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire - Week 3

11 days of baseball down, hopefully another 58 to go. For all those who picked up Pablo Lopez, or Matt Shoemaker for two starts, it was a rough way to start the season. That’s just the reality of how this year is going to play out. The schedule will take completely unforeseen turns at a […]
