Should be a fun one tonight.

 

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.

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 Jacob Amaya con Houston (Amaya fue intercambiado por Miguel Rojas en Diciembre del 2022). Bellozo; de Mexicali, Mexico, ha abierto varios ojos en sus 9 Juego de Grandes Ligas. Con Record de 2-2 y Promedio de 3.78.







Otto López también fue adquirido éste pasado Abril, pero de los Gigantes de San Francisco. Lopez a recibido bastante oportunidad en Miami (Jugó en solo 9 Juegos de MLB desde 2021), luciendo tremendo guante en la Segunda (También a Jugado SS, 3B, y el OF). López, quién se encuentra en buena racha (Batea .300 desde el 5 de Agosto), perfila más como Jugador Utility, algo que todos los Clubes necesitan, al igual corre las bases excepcionalmente.  







Considerado como Novato, aunque debutó muy bien en el 2023 (hasta jugó en los Playoffs), Xavier Edward continúa demostrando su habilidad en el Plato. Batea .325, con OBP de .399, OPS de .800, y convirtiéndose en el Segundo Marlin (Luis Arraez) para completar un Ciclo. Mientras que a robado 25 Bases y un puesto en el Starting Lineup en el 2025 (Aunque nunca se sabe con Peter Bendix).








These 4 Ballplayers are receiving extended looks in the Show, but aren't the only ones having a cup of coffee in the Big Leagues. We previously mentioned Griffin Conine earning some playing time down the stretch. Over the weekend the Marlins also called-up Javier Sanoja, after quite the array of Injuries affected the Club. Really interesting seeing a Lineup yesterday featuring Edwards, Norby, Conine and Sanoja. Perhaps a peek into the Marlins future. 



Should be a fun Series in the Burg, where the Fish will also see old friend Bryan De La Cruz.



Go Marlins!

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 ...

Twelve left on el 16

  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.
