Edwards (wrist) isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus Colorado.

Ronny Henriquez Ronny Henriquez Picks up seventh save
Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 11:20 PM
Henriquez allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out one over 1.1 innings to earn the save in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Rockies.
Analysis: Henriquez entered the game with two outs in the eighth inning after a shaky performance by Michael Petersen. In the ninth, Henriquez also ran into some trouble, but he had just enough wiggle room to close out the win in his first appearance since Thursday. It appears the Marlins simply wanted to get the right-hander some work, as the team's bullpen wasn't overtaxed entering Tuesday. Henriquez has mostly worked as a setup man this year, earning seven saves and 24 holds while pitching to a 2.43 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 91:24 K:BB over 66.2 innings. Prior to this game, he had not allowed an earned run since July 27 versus the Brewers. |

Eury Perez Eury Perez Rebounds for seventh win
Tue, Sep 16, 2025, 11:17 PM
Perez (7-5) allowed one hit and struck out six without walking a batter over five scoreless innings to earn the win over the Rockies on Tuesday.
Analysis: Perez likely had more to give, but a rain delay cut his start short at 71 pitches (46 strikes). It was still an improvement on his recent work -- he had allowed a total of 29 runs (27 earned) over 31 innings across his last seven starts, posting a 7.84 ERA in that span. The 22-year-old has shown flashes of potential this season, mainly in July, but he's also displayed plenty of inconsistency. He's at a 4.40 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 85:28 K:BB through 86 innings across 18 starts. He's projected for another road start over the weekend against the Rangers. |

Troy Johnston Troy Johnston Plays hero in two-homer day
Sat, Sep 13, 2025, 8:39 PM
Johnston went 2-for-4 with a walk, two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 6-4 extra-innings win over the Tigers.
Analysis: After taking Troy Melton deep for a solo shot in the sixth inning, Johnston walked it off in the 11th with a two-run homer off Rafael Montero. The 28-year-old rookie came into the game with just one long ball in his first 32 big-league contests, and the performance may have snapped a September swoon for Johnston in which he'd gone just 2-for-21 (.095) with zero RBI over his prior nine games. |
