Son Los Marlins

  Que días llenos de deportes nos encontramos en el calendario. Las Panteras de Florida van a su tercera Final de Conferencia consecutiva. En la NBA, igual solo quedan 4 Equipos (Indiana/Nueva York .. Minnesota/Oklahoma). Las últimas dos semanas hubo vastante Box (con las presentaciones de la promoción Top-Rank, robándose y rescatando el show). Hasta las poderosas Aguilas de la América buscan su CUARTO TÍTULO MEXICANO CONSECUTIVO. Nuestros Marlins hoy comienzan otra Serie contra los Cachorros de Chicago, después de ganarles una Serie a Tampa éste pasado fin de semana por primera vez desde 2018! Se a visto talento joven debutar en el sur de la Florida durante ya casi 2 meces de Temorada. Catchers Liam Hicks y Agustín Ramirez han comenzado sus Carreras bastante bien.  Nos dejo pensando, cuales Peloteros dentro de la Organización de los Marlins podrían tal vez dubutar pronto al igual, y quiénes pondríamos en una lista de "Top Prospectos". 1.Thomas White The last time Son Los Mar...

  With the sports and entertainment world still flabbergasted (and not in the good kind of way when it comes to wrestling) with WrestleMania 41. We could touch a little bit on how Triple-H can't hold a candle to his father in law as head of creative & the WWE. Or how somebody like the Rock likes to be incorporated in everything, yet decides to not be involved with absolutely anything Professional Wrestling anymore. Or even how a company like TKO, whose sole priority seems to be how much money each particular International Country is willing to pay them to go there, than it ever was putting on any sort of grand spectacle during their biggest show of the year.  We could touch on all that, but no, no, let's instead delve into myriad sports around the State. You got the Florida Panthers, who when their not too busy kissing Donald Trump's ass in the White House during the Regular Season, are instead kicking some ass of their own in the Playoffs. Holding a 2-0 lead on the Tam...

  It's finally! arrived. With 'finally' truly needing an exclamation point beside it, seeing as it's been almost 2 whole months since the last WWE PPV event. In what feels like the longest build to a WrestleMania ever. The ingredients for Mania Season were highlighted by John Cena's heel turn, after over 20 years as a face. You had Charlotte Flair make a triumphant return at the Royal Rumble, setting up her Title Match with Tiffany Stratton. CM Punk headlining Night 1. What should have been the most captivating time of the year however, fell short of expectations. WWE spent what felt like a solid month in Europe, with many a star missing throughout this entire WrestleMania Season. The leadup to the biggest show of the year, which captivates even the most casual of wrestling fan, seemed lackluster. The Rock & some Rapper helped facilitate Cena's shocking turn, then never returned to WWE programming, despite both billed for this weekend. All with the thought, ...

Play around .500 ball on the road, take care of business at home. Through Atlanta & New York for what became an abbreviated 5 game road-trip, the Marlins come back to South Florida 2-3 against the Braves & Mets, no easy task given the Fish's recent history in both Cities. They'll now face another N.L East opponent in the Washington Nationals for a 3 Game weekend Set over at the Depot, where the Marlins had an initial winning Opening homestand. Speaking of the N.L East, both the Philadelphia Phillies & Nats took a Series each from the Defending Chump L.A Dodgers over the last 6 days. A road-trip for Los Angles which opened a lot of eyes off the field towards a Ballclub based out of California. Don't know if ironic or moronic would best describe the picture above. Only seeing as you have one of the Nation's most famous immigrants (whether in or out of Sports) alongside the Country's President, whose campaigns have centered around degrading, immigrants. Eve...

Oh how the turn tables. Same opponent, same time of the year, same venue. Different results. March 28, of 2024 saw the Marlins commence a new Season by facing the Pittsburgh Pirates for a 4 Game Series in Miami. The Buccos would pick up a come from behind Win on Opening Day in Extra Innings, and cap a 4 Game Road Sweep in the finale at the Fish's expense by erasing a 5-0 deficit.   March 27, of 2025 marked this year's Opener, and it was the Marlins whom trailed Paul Skenes & the Pirates 4-1 more than half way through the Contest, only to stage their own Opening Day Comeback with a dramatic Walk-Off in the bottom of the 9th. Following more 9th Inning drama in Game 2, the Fish would again pull out late inning comebacks on both Saturday and Sunday to take 3 out of 4 from the Bucs. We mentioned this Marlins Team played a lot better baseball in the 2nd Half of last Season. They definitely showed grit during what was a thrilling Opening Series in South Florida. Today, the Fish o...

  As the Marlins put the finishing touches on their 26 man Roster for tomorrow, there was another Opening Day eve Transaction for the Fish. Remember, last year Jon Berti was Traded to the Yankees, while Burch Smith was acquired from the Rays a day before the Opener. Today Peter Bendix & Staff acquired Tyler Phillips, a Right-Handed Pitcher from the Phillies. Phillips has put up some really rough numbers in the Minors for Philadelphia since 2021 (281 combined Innings), Pitching to a 5.15 ERA through all levels of MiLB. It's worth mentioning the New Jersey native missed all of 2022 with Shoulder surgery. Phillips did reach the Majors in 2024, appearing in 8 Games/7 Starts for the Phillies, however tallied a 6.87 ERA. The numbers continued to plummet this Spring, as Phillips had a 7.19 Grapefruit League ERA. Bendix & Co. must obviously see something in the analytics, as the former Phils' Prospect will claim an Opening Day Roster spot, in view of the fact  Phillips is out ...

The Marlins wrapped up Spring Training at Roger Dean in Jupiter and now head to Miami for 1 more Pre-Season Game tomorrow. All before officially kicking off the 2025 Season on Thursday against the Pirates. The official 26 man Roster has yet to be announced by the Club, though it's not hard to read between the lines a little bit. The Fish were unable to make it out of Spring without Injuries, as happens with many Teams. Left Hander Ryan Weathers, who had lost weight in the Off-Season, went down with a forearm strain, and looks like best case scenario will miss a very good chunk of the Season again. The heavier 2024 Weathers made only 16 Starts for the Marlins/yet was terrific when on the Mound, as he was again this Spring. Fellow talented Starter Edward Cabrera tallied all of 4.2 Innings in the Grapefruit League, due to ineffectiveness followed by blister issues. Cabrera as well will begin the Season on the I.L. However, the Right Hander should be back before the end of April. 2 of ...

  It's no secret the Marlins are going into 2025 with the lowest payroll in Major League Baseball. That's been well publicized, following a 2023-2024 Off-Season during which they signed exactly 1 Free-Agent (Tim Anderson, 1 yr/$5 Million Dollars), along with just this past Winter where they soley Inked Cal Quantrill to a 1 Year/$3.5 Million Dollar Contract. We've hinted on the Fish Front Office shedding almost every Player whom is making (either now or in the near future ) more than the MLB minimum. We've also touched on ⬇️ reasoning ⤵️ behind the why that very well could be.   Former Cy Young Winner Sandy Alcántara is the leader on the Field and in Player Payroll heading into the new Season. After signing a 5 Year $56 Million Dollar Extension following the 2021 Campaign, Sandy has 3 Seasons of Club control left, with a Team Option for 2027. Alcántara is slated for a $17.3 Million Dollar salary in 2025. That's a jump of $8 Million Dollars from 2024 based on the s...

  Can you believe that in less than a week's time Major League Baseball's Regular Season initiates with the same two Teams whom kicked off the Exhibition Season in Arizona. As is beginning to become customary if you will, the Los Angeles Dodgers begin their new Campaign in the land of the far east. Tokyo, Japan will be the setting for the Defending World Champions & the Chicago Cubs, a quick 2 Game Series which promises to thrill the Japanese fateful, seeing as Nippon stars will be out for both Squads. From Shota Imanaga & Seiya Suzuki, to Roki Sasaki, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and some guy named Shohei Ohtani. Camp has about 2 weeks left for the Marlins, whom open up on the 27th vs the Pittsburgh Pirates in South Florida again. Remember, it was the Pirates whom began the Fish's complete downward spiral to kickoff 2024, sweeping the Home Team in a 4 Game Series in Miami, and commencing their 100 Loss Season. How's about a little Jack Sparrow payback this m...

  Son Los Marlins 🎙

The Marlins kicked off Spring Training last week with Pitchers & Catchers (more on the former in a second). The entire full Squad got things going "officially" Monday, though a substantial amount of Position Players were in Jupiter long before, chomping at the bit. Admittedly we began this post over the weekend prior to Owner Bruce Sherman & President Peter Bendix holding their recurrent specious media scrum to kick off the Spring. As has been the case with these sort of gatherings of Fish higher-ups of late, the terminology of being 'utterly oblivious' to the surroundings of the Ballclub, I think fits to a baseball tee.     It doesn't necessitate a  listen to all the 'analysts' on pods or read the many projections from so called 'insiders' to know the Marlins have or will be picked by almost everybody to finish dead last in their Division and probably the entire National League. That's something that's been brought upon themselves ...
