Son Los Marlins

  From the Luis Arraez Trade on May 03rd, having Tim Anderson become the only Free Agent signing during an entire Off-Season, igniting the Franchise into yet another Fire Sale. There's a reason, or 2, or 3 Marlins President Peter Bendix has earned much distrust within the Fish fanbase. Not even mentioning the man/circumstances whom brought the P.O.B.O to Miami was Owner Bruce Sherman and his handling of former Marlins G.M Kim Ng. So when Bendix strikes a move during the Winter Meetings, dealing Marlins Home Run Leader Jake Burger to Texas for 3 Prospects, it's no surprise fans show so much displeasure. Especially when you come to find out the move wasn't even money related for the low revenue Marlins, as Burger will not be Arbitration Eligible until 2026, meaning his '25 Salary will be closer to the Major League minimum. So why deal Burger if you're Bendix & the Fish? You've heard a lot about the move potentially clearing up space at positions like 1B/DH for...

  The 2024 World Series kicks-off Friday night in Los Angeles, California. When/where the Dodgers will host the New York Yankees in Game 1 of the Fall Classic. It's the first meeting for a World Championship between these two iconic Franchises since 1981, the year Fernando Valenzuela's Dodgers took down Reggie Jackson's Yankees. The 2024 World Series will actually mark the 12th time these 2 Clubs have met in October, dating back to the Brooklyn Dodgers days.  Star power has been a plenty when these Teams have hooked up in October. From Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra, to Jackie Robinson, Sandy Koufax and Fernando. With iconic Managers as well, the likes of Tommy Lasorda & Billy Martin.  Reggie's Yanks Won the Title over L.A in '77 & '78 and have mostly dominated when both Clubs have met in October pasts. The Yankees have taken 8 of the 11 World Series meetings with the Dodgers dating all the way back to 1941, though again, those mostly came wh...

  As the Major League Baseball Regular Season comes to it's finish this weekend (well, kind of 🍑🍎), it's been crunch time for numerous Teams (some not even in the Playoff Race), all as October draws ever so closer. Both the Dodgers & Yankees clinched their Divisions last night at Home, over the Clubs just beneath them in the Standings no less in the Padres & Orioles.  While there's not much surprise in that L.A & the Yanks are headed to October once again, the same can't be said about Detroit and Kansas City. I don't think many people had the Tigers & Royals on their Postseason bingo cards when the Year started, yet both have magic numbers of just 1 to clinch American League Wild Cards. All while the Marlins of all Teams lent a very big hand to both Clubs this week. The Minnesota Twins, last year's A.L Central Division Winner, entered the mid week Series vs the Fish just a Game out of a Wild Card spot. Now, the Twinkies will need nothing short ...

  As the Marlins completed their penultimate Road Trip of 2024, going 1-6 against two mediocre Teams of the National League in Pittsburgh & Washington, they'll now return Home to face the Club with the 2nd best record in all of Baseball in the L.A Dodgers starting tomorrow night. The Fish now stand at 55-95, a whopping 40 Games Under .500 with 12 Games remaining. The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp still have a week to go on their 2024 Calendar, the last Marlins Minor League Affiliate with Game action remaining. Lefthander Dale Stanavich will get a Promotion for this final week from Double-A Pensacola, who played their final Contest of 2024 yesterday. Stanavich put up some solid numbers out of the Blue Wahoos Bullpen and was a part of the 2023 Jupiter Hammerheads Title run last year. Speaking of the '23 Hammerheads, fellow Lefty in that Jupiter Bullpen Evan Taylor himself had a solid campaign. Racking up 52 Strikeouts in 44.1 Innings for High-A Beloit, to the tune of 2.84 ERA. Ta...

Not the easiest thing to find positives on a 54-92 Marlins Squad, especially fresh off being Swept right out of Pittsburgh, P.A (Bruce Sherman, Sell the Team btw ). All notwithstanding, let's head to the Bullpen, where whether by Trade (the likes of Tanner Scott & A.J Puk) or Injury (similarly to Calvin Faucher or Andrew Nardi) the Marlins 'Pen has had a complete overhaul here for the final Month, yet is trying to find a few diamonds in the rough. We formerly had mentioned the name Jesus Tinoco, who has the right to claim the Johnny Cash song 'I've been everywhere' as his MLB theme music. Tinoco has Pitched for 4 MLB Teams, 3 of those Clubs over separate stints (including Florida where he Appeared in 3 Games during the Covid Season of '20).  The 6-4 Right Hander originally signed by the Blue-Jays, has been a part of 6 different Organizations, not including the Seibu Lions of the Japan Professional Baseball League whom Tinoco Pitched for last year. The tenur...

  Fresh off a winning Road-Trip and a .500 Homestand, the Marlins hit the Road once more to Pittsburgh P.A to face Rookie phenom Paul Skenes and the Pirates. The last time the Fish were in PNC Park, the Franchise was celebrating a Playoff berth almost a full year ago. While things have certainty gone in the opposite direction this year for the Marlins, they will be featuring some talented Rookies of their own in this Series. Empezamos con Connor Norby, quién mandó 3 para la calle durante los últimos 2 Partidos contra Filadelfia Sabado y Domingo. 3 Jonrones, mandando la bola en el proceso por la parte más grande del terreno de juego en Miami. Norby, adquirido por Trevro Rogers éste pasado 2 de Agosto, a empezado su carrera como Marlin con el pie derecho sin lugar a duda.  https://x.com/Underdog__MLB/status/1832839680322392132 Hablando de Novatos, hoy los Marlins le dan la bola al novato Valente Bellozo. El Derecho fue obentindo por la Organización en Abril durante un cambio por...
