Sandy Alcantara Sandy Alcantara Continues to provide length
Thu, Sep 3, 2026, 9:56 PM
Alcantara (13-9) took the loss against the Royals on Thursday, allowing four runs on six hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out two.
Analysis: Kansas City made its mark in the third and fifth innings, bringing across a pair of runs in each frame to cost Alcantara a quality start. The workhorse right-hander continues deliver plenty of length for the Marlins, pitching at least six innings in 12 consecutive starts now. He'll take a steady 3.54 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 142:51 K:BB over an MLB-high 195.2 innings into his next scheduled outing versus the division-rival Mets. |

Deyvison De Los Santos Deyvison De Los Santos Back in majors
Thu, Sep 3, 2026, 2:13 PM
The Marlins recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.
Analysis: De Los Santos has had a few cups of coffee in the majors this season, going 3-for-9 with a double while appearing in four games with the Marlins. He could be in for a longer stay with the big club this time around after slashing .286/.359/.700 with nine homers, 18 RBI and 14 runs in 21 games at Triple-A since the beginning of August, though he is still likely to be limited to a bench role. Leo Jimenez was DFA'd in a corresponding move. |

Leo Jimenez Leo Jimenez DFA'd by Marlins
Thu, Sep 3, 2026, 2:05 PM
The Marlins designated Jimenez for assignment Thursday.
Analysis: Jimenez has struggled to a .199 batting average and .565 OPS across 194 plate appearances this season, and he'll now lose his place on both the active and 40-man rosters to make room for Deyvison De Los Santos. Jimenez has never been viewed as much of an offensive threat, but his defensive versatility could be valued by teams browsing the waiver wire for bench depth. |

Calvin Faucher Calvin Faucher Nails down third save
Wed, Sep 2, 2026, 10:06 PM
Faucher threw a clean ninth inning to earn the save Wednesday against the Royals.
Analysis: With closer Pete Fairbanks (hand) on the injured list, Faucher stepped up for the save Wednesday. The right-hander has yielded a lone earned run since the beginning of August and figures to serve as one of Miami's top options in the ninth inning while Fairbanks is on the mend. He has a 3.77 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 64:32 K:BB with three saves (eight chances) in 59.2 innings this season. |

Eury Perez Eury Perez Burned by long ball in no-decision
Wed, Sep 2, 2026, 10:01 PM
Perez took a no-decision against the Royals on Wednesday, allowing six runs on nine hits and three walks in 4.2 innings. He struck out three.
Analysis: It was tough sledding from the get-go for Perez, who let in a pair of runs in the opening frame and served up a season-high three home runs after conceding just one in his previous 10 appearances. The hard-throwing right-hander is beginning to struggle on the mound -- he's given up 11 runs in his past two starts after yielding 11 earned runs in his prior nine outings to that stretch. He'll look to bounce back his next time out versus the Mets, still holding a strong 3.72 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 145:59 K:BB over a career-high 135.1 innings. |

Pauley went 2-for-4 with a home run, a triple, four RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Royals.
Analysis: Recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday morning, Pauley drew the start at third base and made an immediate impact, launching a two-run homer off Randy Dobnak in his first plate appearance. He added a two-run triple in the seventh to establish a career high with four RBI. Pauley has struggled to find much consistency at the major-league level this season, now slashing .205/.237/.357 with two homers across 47 games. |

Tue, Sep 1, 2026, 9:11 PM
Phillips (4-6) earned the win Tuesday against the Royals, allowing one hit and two walks while striking out four over five scoreless innings.
Analysis: Phillips surrendered a leadoff single to Carter Jensen in the first inning but held Kansas City without another knock the rest of the way. The one hit marked his fewest in any outing of at least five innings this season. The right-hander has now allowed two earned runs or fewer in nine of his last 10 appearances and will carry a 3.43 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 90:47 K:BB across 110.1 innings into his next scheduled start Sunday against the Cubs. |

Tue, Sep 1, 2026, 5:19 PM

Pete Fairbanks Pete Fairbanks Resumes mound work
Tue, Sep 1, 2026, 5:15 PM
Fairbanks (hand) began throwing off a mound Tuesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Fairbanks was shut down from throwing for a few days after receiving injections to treat the nerve issue in his right hand, but he's now been cleared to resume throwing off a mound following re-evaluation. A timeline for his return may become clearer once he gets a few more bullpen sessions in. In the meantime, Calvin Faucher and Michael Petersen figure to be the favorites for saves in Miami. |

Tue, Sep 1, 2026, 11:35 AM
The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
Analysis: Pauley has struggled to make an impact in the majors this year with a .194/.228/.306 slash line in 46 games, but he'll return to the big club Tuesday with rosters expanding to 28 players. The 25-year-old should serve as a depth infielder for the Marlins. |

Tue, Sep 1, 2026, 11:30 AM
The Marlins recalled Blalock from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
Analysis: Blalock was acquired from the Rockies in a trade back in January but has spent all season at Jacksonville, posting a 5.61 ERA and 103:46 K:BB over 109 frames covering 23 starts. The right-hander appears set to be deployed in long relief, though he could wind up making a start or two during the final month. |

Ryan Gusto Ryan Gusto Fans four in short start
Mon, Aug 31, 2026, 9:45 PM
Gusto took a no-decision against the Nationals on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks in 4.1 innings. He struck out four.
Analysis: Gusto threw four shutout innings before running into trouble in the fifth, when he was chased from the outing after recording one out in the frame. The Marlins have continually shown a lack of willingness to let the right-hander work deep into starts, as Gusto has pitched into the sixth inning just twice in 14 starts. He's slated to wrap up a two-start week over the weekend against the Cubs, holding a 3.86 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 57:20 K:BB over 67.2 innings. |

The 28-year-old southpaw owns a 5.87 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 32:19 K:BB over 38.1 innings for the Marlins this season. |

Mon, Aug 31, 2026, 5:43 PM
The Marlins recalled Serna from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
Analysis: The 24-year-old Serna will hit the big leagues for the first time and will provide the Marlins with some added depth in the middle infield after second baseman Xavier Edwards (thumb) was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Over 337 plate appearances with Jacksonville on the season, Serna slashed .218/.300/.364 with 11 home runs and 14 stolen bases. |
