Son Los Marlins

  With Pitchers & Catchers having officially reported over 2 full weeks ago. Spring Training Games got underway over the weekend. The WBC is less than a week away from commencing. It's certainly an exciting time in the Baseball calendar.  The Marlins have played their last 4 Grapefruit League Contests in Palm Beach County, but will now head over to the west coast of the State to face the Defending A.L Champion Toronto Blue Jays in Dunedin, Florida. They'll then stay on the Gulf of Mexico to face the Phillies for a second time this week, in Clearwater on Friday. The Jupiter contest vs the Phils Tuesday featured the Spring Training debut for the Fish of Chris Paddack. Now that's "Spring debut" and not "Organizational debut", because remember Paddack was a former 8th Rd. Pick by the Fish in 2015, then turned into enough of a Prospect to be Dealt to the Padres for Fernando Rodney about a year later. San Diego certainly won that Trade, though Paddack has...

 Present/Here!! It was roll call time in Marlins Camp this week. I was able to make the trek down to Jupiter, FL this morning to visit what the Fish are calling the newly renovated "Jupiter Academy". There was a ribbon cutting on Monday, as the first official Full Squad workouts for the 2026 Marlins took place. There were also tours to the upgraded facility on Wednesday the 11th, when Pitchers & Catchers commenced. Spring Training has arrived. The Fish begin Exhibition play on Saturday vs the Team they met last in '25 in the New York Metropolitans (whom were Eliminated from Postseason contention on the final day of the Regular Season by the Marlins, AGAIN!!!). Coming off a 17 Win improvement in 2025, expectations are definitely higher heading into '26 in South Florida. The payoff of a Rebuild which began during the 2024 Season, are beginning to bear fruit for the Fish.  A solid group of Position Players the likes of Kyle Stowers, Otto López, Agustín Ramírez, Jacob...

   As we take a quick break from our All-International Marlins breakdowns heading into the World Baseball Classic. To commence the new year, the Fish did trade 2 Starting Pitchers whom were Arbitration eligible ($)/Hurlers whom also came with plenty of Injury history. The UFC makes its Paramount debut in a little over a week's time. The Miami Hurricanes are playing for a College Football National Champ ionship on Monday for the first time in 22 Years! I'm coming back myself from an amazing European trip with my Suomi brothers in the north!! We'll get into all of it, but in the words of the great Peter Griffin, "You know what really grinds my gears"? What the back to back Defending Champion Florida Panthers did, or better yet, didn't have the balls to do yesterday.  We're certainly living in (for lack of a better word) interesting times these days. Long gone are those traditions when a Champion from each Sport would visit the White House and present the Pre...

 The Dominican Republic and Venezuela . Two Baseball Countries that have imbued the Major Leagues with an abundance of talent, and the Marlins are certainly no exception.  Here are the Top-26 Fish Ballplayers we've gathered up to represent both Naciones. José Ureña & Felix Heredia will join the D.R Rotation. Heredia, whom only Started a grand total of 2 Games for the Marlins, but tossed 5.1 Scoreless Innings in the 1997 World Series (Relief). While in the Dominican Pen, additions include Juan Carlos Oviedo (Leo Nuñez), whom is 4th All-Time in Team History in Saves. Jose Veras had a 38 Game stretch in the summer of 2010 Pitching to a 1.16 ERA in a Set Up role for the Fish. While Huascar Brazoban turned himself into a very uplifting story as he was reaching the Majors, from Pitching in an Independent League to making a Playoff Roster ('23) in less than 2 Seasons time in Florida. Joining José Reyes, Starlin Castro and Starling Marte on the D.R Bench, Jesús Sanchez provided t...

  El Equpio de todos? Les habiamos mostrado los primeros 18 en la Squadra U.S.A / Marlins . Continuamos completando los Rosters de cada Nación. Es turno de los Estados Unidos 🇺🇸. Un Equipo bastante fuerte, qué Jardineros como Christian Yelich y Cliff Floyd, serán relegados al Banco. Mike Redmond, ex Manager del Equipo (2013-2015), será Reserva/Catcher. Mientras que elegimos a Dave Berg para ser el respaldo del Infield. Berg, un ex Huracán de Miami, terminó con más de 50 Dobletes y WAR de 2.9 en su termino como 'Backup' en Florida ('98-'01). Bryan Harvey (45 Saves/1.70 ERA) como primer Cerrador en la Historia de la Franquicia y Brandon Kintzler como Closer de los Marlins del 2020 (Uno de solo 3 Closers en recojer un Salavamento de Postemporada), entrarán al Bullpen de Estados Unidos. La juventud tal vaz no sepa qué de dominante fue Todd Jones en el 2005. De finales de Abril a medias de Septiembre, Jones Salvó 37 Juegos en 38 oportunidades, con Promedio de 0.95. Un año...

  It's fight night in the 305!! Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua goes down tonight in M.I.A. While in the undercard, there will be a fun featured bout between MMA Legend Anderson Silva & former UFC Welterweight Champ Tyron Woodley. A proposito di Fun , we've taken Son Los Marlins Internationally of late. We had some fun gathering up an Italian-American Squad to represent Marlins - Italia in Team History. So in the words of the Italian Stallion; "It's cold outside Paulie". From Carl Pavano to Nathan Eovaldi to Zac Gallen. There is certainly talent in abbondanza to go around in the Marlins/Italy Starting Rotation. Adding Left-Hander Justin Nicolino & former Florida Gator Anthony Desclafani (whom both came to the Fish in the same Trade) to back end.  The Bullpen will be lead by former Marlins Closer Dylan Floro (whom as many on this Roster, I had no idea was of Italian decent). Former Teammate/Current Marlin Andrew Nardi would make for the perfect set-up man. Whi...

 Los Marlins firmaron apenas su Tercer Contrato garantizado de MLB en Agencia-Libre, lo que ha sido ya durante lo largo de las últimas 3 Temporadas-Bajas. Christopher Morel llegó a un acuerdo para la Campaña 2026 por $2 Milliones de Dólares. La sorpresa fue cuando salieron reportes qué los Marlins buscarán ubicar al ex Cachorro y Manta Raya en la Primera Base. Tal vez un poco suma por resta al menos, ya qué Eric Wagaman (quién mantuvo linea de Bateo de solo .250/.296/.378 con OPS de .674 y WAR de -0.4 en 140 Juegos en 2025) estaba en la lista provisional de la Primera Base. VENEZUELA SOUTH KOREA/COLOMBIA CUBA JAPAN/CANADA MEXICO PUERTO RICO DOMINICAN REPUBLIC USA Son Los Marlins, a la luz del Clásico Mundial que se jugará en la Primavera, construyó Rosters de 18 Peloteros para representar a 10 Naciones, usando Jugadores de todas las etapas de Marlins Béisbol. A petición popular, decidimos llenar los Equipos completos a 26, y al igual integrar a más Países. Uno de dichos Países fue ...

 With the Baseball Winter Meetings wrapping up in Orlando. The Magic hosting the Heat in Orange County last night and grabbing the Dub 🙄. Fight night between Jake Paul & Anthony Joshua is less than 10 days away in Miami. There's quite a bit going on in the Sunshine State here during the first 10 days of December.  We mentioned the Winter Meetings, where Executives from all 30 MLB Teams gather. There was some Free Agent news yesterday. Former Mets Closer Edwin Diaz is now a Dodger (what a surprise). Kyle Schwarber is staying with the Phillies (no surprise there either). While a s we write, there was some breaking news as Pete Alonso is leaving New York as well, Signing a 5 Year Deal with Baltimore (in a bit of a nice surprise move for the Sport if you will). Albert Pujols, not affiliated with any Major League Team at the moment (though he did interview for some Managerial vacancies this Off-Season), talked about the D.R Club which the Baseball icon will Manage during the u...
