March madness 💧💧! 2 Spring Training Games got wiped out yesterday over a little rain some 20 minutes down the road from each other. Marlins Games against the Cardinals & Nationals in Jupiter and West Palm Beach were both Cancelled. The Fish will be back in Grapefruit League action tonight in the first Game under the Jupiter lights this Spring against the Yankees. Son Los Marlins will be in the house! 




 College Baseball also had a few weather interruptions this weekend around the Country. Georgia had a Game which they were leading at the time 9-3 over Georgia Tech, called in the 5th Inning due to the skies opening up in the Peach State on Friday. Whatever happens with that Friday Contest doesn't delude the Bulldogs' (who went on to take the next 2 over the Yellow Jackets) start to the Season. 




The SEC's Georgia, much like Kentucky, the ACC's Duke & North Carolina, along with the Big 12's TCU, have really impressed in the early going of the College Baseball Circuit. 5 Teams to certainty keep an eye on over the spring and into the summer.






We talked in our previous Son Los Marlins post about the upcoming Heavyweight Bout that will take place this Friday in Saudi Arabia, when former Heavyweight Champ Anthony Joshua takes on lineal UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Nganou.





UFC 299 will also take place this Saturday in a location a little closer than Saudi Arabia. Kaseya Center (better known as the Triple-A) the home of the Miami Heat, will host one of the more stacked UFC cards in recent memory (which is not saying much). Bantamweight Champion 'Sugar' Sean O'Malley will try and avenge his only MMA Loss to Ecuador's Chito Vera. Former UFC Champions Dustin Poirier, Petr Yan and Rafael dos Anjos are on the Miami undercard. While the entire event features names like Gilbert Burns, Kevin Holland, Curtis Blaydes and Michel Pereira.






Those Kaseya Center's Miami Heat were in action this past Saturday, rebounding from their Game in Denver with a 126-120 Win over the Utah Jazz. The Heat will be back at it tomorrow at Home against the lowly Detroit Pistons. Detroit was just in Orlando yesterday, beginning their Florida road trip against that underrated Orlando Magic Squad. The Magic cruised to a 113-91 Victory. Don't sleep on Florida Basketball!!






It's certainly a busy busy time of year in the sports world. Something called ''March Madness'' is suppose to kick off this month too. Somebody should tell everyone it's also WrestleMania Season 😉, Now We're Talking!!!

Distrust, can you blame us

  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...

Fight Week

  The Rematch for the Heavyweight Title in the sport of Boxing is set for Saturday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Undisputed Heavyweight Champion Oleksandr Usyk defends his crown against the best big-man in Boxing of this generation, Tyson Fury. After such a closely contested Fight this past May, which saw Usyk narrow out a Split-Decision, there's high anticipation for Saturday in the desert. Less than 7 months ago we witnessed the first 'Undisputed' Heavyweight Championship Boxing Match since 1999, which saw Usyk nearly stop Fury in Rd. 9, after a flurry of combinations to the kisser had the 6'9 Englishman on queer street. The change in tide during the Bout however, came when it seemed Fury was in complete control during the middle Rounds, following massive uppercuts (including to the body) which seemed to really hurt the former Light Heavyweight Champ. Fury also recovered brilliantly in similar fashion which has made him a legend in the Sport during many a Contest, howbeit ...

  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.
