The absolute worst

  There have been 32 Seasons of Marlins Baseball. 2 World Championships 1997 / 2003, only 3 Teams (Yankees, Red Sox, Giants) have Won more in that time period, think about that for a sec. There have been 2 other Marlins Playoff appearances ('20 / '23). 8 winning Seasons. A new Stadium in Miami. An MVP Campaign (Giancarlo Stanton '17). A Cy Young Award Year (Sandy Alcantara '22). 6 No-Hitters, 4 Rookies of the Year, 1 Cycle.  There was also a baseball Season ('94) that ended in a League wide strike. Another in 2020 that was not a marathon but rather a 60 Game sprint due to Covid-19. There have been 3 Marlins Squads who've lost a 100 or more Games. 4 DIFFERNT Fire Sales . 4 different Owners. Yet not 1 single Team in 31 Seasons of Marlins Baseball (that featured an All-Star Break) finished the First Half with a worse Record than the 2024 Marlins. Not one, think about that for a second. 30 Games under .500 does 2nd year Manager Skip Schumaker's Squad find themse
