Going in the bottom of the ninth inning looking helpless against the Minnesota Twins, the Miami Marlins showed life late by loading the bases on three straight singles and all scored on a grand slam by Brian Anderson. Three straight strikeouts ended the rally and the Twins secured a 7-4 win on Wednesday. The loss […]
Just because the throwback teal jerseys were stashed away in the storage closet for another year, doesn’t mean the magic went with them. A two-run homer by Miguel Rojas capped a six run second inning that carried the Miami Marlins to a 11-6 win at home over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday. Rojas has hit […]
Miguel Rojas grew up a fan of the Florida Marlins when he was a young boy growing up in Venezuela. Teal was his favorite color and on the weekend where he finally got to wear the very uniform of the 1997 World Series champion Marlins, the shortstop slugged a leadoff home run in back-to-back games. […]
The Miami Marlins were always expected to move some of their expiring contracts before the July 31 MLB Trade Deadline and the first domino fell on Saturday. Closer Sergio Romo was traded to the Minnesota Twins, along with minor league pitcher Chris Vallimont, for first base prospect Lewin Diaz. This sounds a lot like when […]
Trevor Richards began his new role as a reliever after throwing a shutout inning allowing only one hit with two strikeouts during the Miami Marlins 3-2 walk-off win against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday. Richards (3-12, 4.62) was known for having an above average changeup and opened the season as the No. 2 starter. However […]

Before starting his professional baseball career with the Single-A Advanced Jupiter Hammerheads, JJ Bleday got to learn from a member of the Miami Marlins organization whom he considers a legend. No, it wasn’t Derek Jeter, who drafted him No. 4 overall in this year’s MLB Draft. It wasn’t Don Mattingly, a fellow New York Yankees […]
The Miami Marlins were entering the first year of a rebuild project (or what they simply refer to as a “build”) in 2018 and had a few veteran players left to trade for prospects. They sent Cam Maybin to Seattle for infielder Bryson Brigman, Brad Zeigler to Arizona for pitcher Tommy Eveld and Justin Bour […]
Chris Paddack broke into the scene this season and instantly became the San Diego Padres’ best starting pitcher. On a team that has a young, exciting, growing core, that added star infielder Manny Machado, Paddack steals the show whenever he starts. Simply put, there’s a new sheriff in town. Chris Paddack is one of four […]
Elieser Hernandez has proven that he can be a starter and a reliever. In his second year with the Miami Marlins, Hernandez came in place of Caleb Smith during his time on the injured list and posted a 4.05 ERA and a 5.33 strikeout-to-walk ratio (32 strikeouts, six walks) in five starts. With Smith back […]
