Eric Wagaman Eric Wagaman Drives in three runs Thursday Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 10:50 PM Wagaman went 3-for-4 with a double, three RBI and a run scored during the Marlins' 5-0 win over the Nationals on Thursday. Analysis: Thursday marked Wagaman's 12th multi-RBI game of the season and the third time that he has driven in three runs. The 28-year-old has logged at least one hit in six of his last seven game and has gone 8-for-21 (.381) with five RBI over that span.
Ryan Weathers Ryan Weathers Blanks Nats in return Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 10:38 PM Weathers (2-1) earned the win against the Nationals on Thursday, allowing five hits while striking out four across five scoreless innings. He did not issue a walk. Analysis: Weathers was cleared to make his first start since early June after missing time due to a left lat strain. He looked good in his return, limiting the Nationals to five baserunners while generating 12 whiffs in just 68 pitches (46 strikes). Now that he has his first major-league start in three months under his belt, Weathers should have a longer leash in his next outing, which is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Rockies.
Otto Lopez Otto Lopez Sitting down Thursday Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 2:11 PM Lopez isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals. Analysis: Lopez will get a chance to rest Thursday after going 7-for-15 with two homers and six RBI over his last four games. Maximo Acosta will slide over to shortstop as a result, opening up third base for Javier Sanoja.
Ryan Weathers Ryan Weathers Returns from IL to start Thursday Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 2:02 PM The Marlins activated Weathers (lat) from the 60-day injured list Thursday to start Thursday against the Nationals. Analysis: Weathers will make his return to the Marlins' rotation for his first big-league start since June 7. The left-hander has been limited to only five starts in the majors this season, first missing time due to a forearm strain and more recently a lat strain. Weathers threw 68 pitches in his second of two rehab outings, so his workload will be relatively limited versus the Nats.
Seth Martinez Seth Martinez Jettisoned from 40-man Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 2:00 PM The Marlins designated Martinez for assignment Thursday. Analysis: Martinez has made six appearances since joining the active roster Aug. 27, during which he's coughed up four earned runs across 6.2 innings. He'll now lose his place on the MLB and 40-man rosters to make room for Ryan Weathers' (lat) return from the 60-day IL.
Jakob Marsee Jakob Marsee Four more hits Wednesday Thu, Sep 11, 2025, 9:34 AM Marsee went 4-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Nationals. Analysis: All four knocks were singles, but the rookie center fielder just keeping on raking. Marsee has seven multi-hit performances in his last 15 games, slashing .344/.412/.443 during that span with three doubles, one homer, three steals, four RBI and nine runs. His .977 OPS in his first 39 big-league games is second only to the A's Nick Kurtz (1.023 OPS) among all rookies with at least 100 plate appearances this season, and only a late promotion is keeping Marsee out of the NL Rookie of the Year discussion.
Xavier Edwards Xavier Edwards Snaps out of slump vs. Nats Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 11:08 PM Edwards went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Nationals. Analysis: The 26-year-old infielder snapped out of a recent slump in a big way, launching his third homer of the season, a 342-foot shot in the eighth inning that just cleared the glove of right fielder Dylan Crews. It marked Edwards' first three-hit game since Aug. 8, when he was hitting .303 and in the thick of the batting title race -- though his average has since dipped to .282. Edwards had been given a rest in the previous series against Philadelphia, and Wednesday's effort was an encouraging sign that he may be regaining his form at the plate.
Eury Perez Eury Perez Fans seven, falls apart late Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 10:30 PM Perez didn't factor into the decision against the Nationals on Wednesday, allowing three runs on seven hits while striking out seven over 5.2 innings. Analysis: Perez looked dominant early, striking out five of the first six batters he faced and allowing just three hits through his first five frames, before unraveling in the sixth and surrendering four straight hits, failing to complete the frame. After a stellar July, the young right-hander has struggled of late, posting a 7.84 ERA across his last seven outings (32 innings). Perez now owns a 4.67 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 79:28 K:BB across 81 innings this season and will look to replicate his early-inning success from Wednesday in his next scheduled start against the Rockies, a matchup that should be favorable given Colorado's .294 OBP since the All-Star break.
Connor Norby Connor Norby Starting rehab assignment Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 3:55 PM Norby (quadriceps) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports. Analysis: Norby appears to have made a swift recovery from his left quadriceps strain, an injury he suffered just last week. He will be eligible for activation from the 10-day injured list Sunday and would seem to have a good shot to be ready to go on that time.
Dane Myers Dane Myers Cleared for rehab games Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 3:51 PM Myers (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports. Analysis: Myers has been sidelined for all of September with a right oblique strain but has been cleared to knock some rust off on a rehab assignment. Because his absence has been brief, he shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before being activated from the 10-day injured list. Myers could be limited to playing time versus left-handed pitching upon his return.
Victor Mesa Jr. Victor Mesa Jr. Getting regular looks versus RHPs Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 2:33 PM Mesa will start in left field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Nationals. Analysis: The left-handed-hitting Mesa was on the bench against Mets right-hander Kodai Senga in his first game with the Marlins after being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Aug. 31, but the young outfielder has now cracked the lineup for five straight matchups with righties. Since his call-up, Mesa has gone 5-for-15 with a home run, two doubles, five RBI and four runs. At least until Kyle Stowers (oblique) and/or Griffin Conine (shoulder) potentially return from the injured list, Mesa should continue to hold down a regular spot in the lineup versus righties.
Agustin Ramirez Agustin Ramirez Rare day off Wednesday Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 2:27 PM Ramirez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals. Analysis: It seems like a good time for a breather for Ramirez, who is just 4-for-31 with zero extra-base hits so far this month. Liam Hicks will do the catching and Heriberto Hernandez will be the designated hitter for the Marlins.
Graham Pauley Graham Pauley Kicking off rehab assignment Wed, Sep 10, 2025, 12:58 PM Pauley (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports. Analysis: Pauley has been on the shelf for more than three weeks with a right oblique strain but has been cleared to return to game action. He will play third base for Jacksonville on Wednesday and shouldn't need too many rehab contests before being activated from the 10-day injured list. Pauley will beat Connor Norby (quadriceps) back from the IL, so the former should be the Marlins' primary third baseman when he returns, at least until the latter is ready.
Adam Mazur Adam Mazur Struggles against Nationals Tue, Sep 9, 2025, 10:23 PM Mazur (0-3) yielded six runs (four earned) on eight hits and three walks over 4.1 innings Tuesday, striking out one and taking a loss against Washington. Analysis: Mazur was greeted with a three-run shot by Josh Bell in the first inning. The Marlins then plated a pair of unearned runs in the fourth before Daylen Lile belted a solo homer in the fifth. Mazur had allowed two home runs through three starts at the MLB level this year before Tuesday's poor performance. He's now sporting a 6.30 ERA with a 13:8 K:BB across 20 MLB innings. Mazur is currently projected to face the Tigers at home this weekend, though it's unclear if he'll get another turn in the rotation.
Valente Bellozo Valente Bellozo Removed with triceps injury Tue, Sep 9, 2025, 8:45 PM Bellozo was pulled from Tuesday's game against the Nationals with right triceps tightness, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports. Analysis: Bellozo gave up two hits and struck out a batter across two-plus innings out of the bullpen Tuesday before his triceps forced him out during the ninth. The severity of his injury remains unknown, though the Marlins will presumably stay away from using Bellozo in relief over the next couple of days.
Adam Mazur Adam Mazur Drawing start Tuesday Tue, Sep 9, 2025, 1:53 PM Mazur is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Nationals in Miami. Analysis: Mazur had initially been lined up to start this past Sunday's series finale versus the Phillies, but Miami ended up going with an impromptu bullpen game led off by right-hander Tyler Phillips. Since the Marlins were able to stay away from Mazur in relief that day, he'll end up taking the hill for Tuesday's contest. Through his first three starts with Miami this season, Mazur has gone 0-2 with a 5.74 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB in 15.2 innings.
Victor Mesa Jr. Victor Mesa Jr. Launches first long ball Mon, Sep 8, 2025, 9:20 PM Mesa went 2-for-4 with a homer, a double, three RBI and an additional run scored in Monday's 15-7 loss to the Nationals. Analysis: The Miami rookie cracked a 394-foot, three-run homer off Washington reliever Shinnosuke Ogasawara in the eighth. Mesa had flashed marginal power in Triple-A this season prior to his promotion, popping six long balls in 143 plate appearances. The 24-year-old has been drawing occasional starts at the bottom of the lineup since being recalled Aug. 31, as he's hit .238 (5-for-21) with four RBI and four runs scored.
Janson Junk Janson Junk Pummeled in return Mon, Sep 8, 2025, 9:12 PM Junk (6-3) took the loss Monday against Washington, conceding six runs on eight hits and two walks over 4.1 innings with three strikeouts. Analysis: The Miami right-hander looked rusty as he returned from an elbow injury that kept him out since Aug. 27. Junk completely unraveled in the fifth, as he allowed four of the first five batters to reach before being lifted for reliever Seth Martinez. After posting a 2.68 ERA in his first 50.1 frames this season, Junk has struggled since, producing a dreadful 6.64 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 26:8 K:BB over 42 innings. He is currently slated to make his next start at home against the playoff-bound Tigers this weekend.
Kyle Stowers Kyle Stowers Undergoes imaging on side Mon, Sep 8, 2025, 6:02 PM Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said Monday that Stowers (oblique) underwent imaging on his right side Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports. Analysis: Stowers has been out since mid-August with a left oblique strain, but it was soreness in his right side that kept him out of his last two scheduled rehab games over the weekend and necessitated imaging. The results of his imaging aren't yet known. Stowers had been expected to return from the 15-day injured list this week, but his status is now in limbo.
Eric Wagaman Eric Wagaman Not playing against righties Mon, Sep 8, 2025, 4:23 PM Wagaman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals. Analysis: The Marlins are leaving Wagaman out of the lineup for the fourth straight matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher (Cade Cavalli). The right-handed-hitting Wagaman should remain a fixture in the starting nine versus lefties, as he's produced a .761 OPS in 163 plate appearances against them this season.
