Joe Mack Joe Mack Getting rest Sunday
Sun, Jun 28, 2026, 1:58 PM
Mack is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: Mack went 1-for-7 with a walk and two runs while starting behind the plate in the first two games of the series. He'll be given a breather for the finale in St. Louis, clearing the way for Brian Navarreto to make a start at catcher. |

Graham Pauley Graham Pauley Makes impact in return to majors
Sat, Jun 27, 2026, 10:10 AM
Pauley went 1-for-4 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Friday's win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Called back up from Triple-A Jacksonville earlier in the day, Pauley was immediately inserted into the starting nine at third base and hit ninth in the order. Prior to his promotion, the 25-year-old had a .259/.343/.500 slash line over his last 16 games for the Jumbo Shrimp with two homers and three steals, and Pauley has a clear path to claiming the full-time job at the hot corner with Connor Norby demoted to Triple-A and Javier Sanoja better suited for a utility role. |

Javier Sanoja Javier Sanoja Loses grip on starting job
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 3:58 PM
Sanoja is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in St. Louis.
Analysis: Sanoja leads the Marlins with 36 starts at third base this season, but this is his second straight game out of the lineup and the fourth time over the last five tilts versus righties that he's not started. Graham Pauley was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville earlier Friday and is getting the call at the hot corner Friday. |

Heriberto Hernandez Heriberto Hernandez Out of Marlins' lineup
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 3:52 PM
Hernandez is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in St. Louis.
Analysis: Hernandez started each of the previous three games -- including two versus righties -- but the right-handed hitter will begins Friday's series opener on the bench. Esteury Ruiz is in left field for the Marlins. |

Connor Norby Connor Norby Dispatched to minors
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 3:07 PM
The Marlins optioned Norby to Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Analysis: Norby is slashing only .194/.306/.290 in June and had started back-to-back games on only one occasion. He will aim to get his swing in order at Jacksonville. |

Zach Brzykcy Zach Brzykcy Optioned to Triple-A
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 3:04 PM
The Marlins optioned Brzykcy to Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Analysis: Brzykcy was with the big club for a few days but did not make any appearances. He's clearing off the active roster to make space for Max Meyer (bereavement), who will start Friday in St. Louis. |

Graham Pauley Graham Pauley Recalled from Triple-A
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 2:58 PM
The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Analysis: Pauley sports just a .165/.211/.271 batting line across 33 games during his time with the Marlins this season. Miami has received very little offensively from third base, so Pauley could get another chance there, but there's no guarantee he'll play regularly. |
|
Max Meyer Max Meyer Reinstated ahead of Friday's start
Fri, Jun 26, 2026, 2:54 PM
The Marlins activated Meyer from the bereavement list Friday.
Analysis: Meyer had been away from the club all week while tending to a personal matter. He will not miss a turn in the rotation, as Meyer is slated to take the ball Friday on the road in St. Louis. The right-hander will carry an 8-0 record and 2.80 ERA into Friday's outing against the Cardinals. |

Graham Pauley Graham Pauley Joining big-league roster
Thu, Jun 25, 2026, 9:28 PM
Pauley is expected to be called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Analysis: Pauley will return to the major-league roster after being optioned to Jacksonville on May 29. The 25-year-old posted a .246 average with nine extra-base hits, including two homers, while also adding 11 RBI, seven runs scored and three stolen bases over 17 contests at the Triple-A level following his demotion. Connor Norby is expected to be sent to Jacksonville in a corresponding move. |

Christopher Morel Christopher Morel Headed to Triple-A
Thu, Jun 25, 2026, 8:41 PM
Morel was outrighted to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.
Analysis: Morel was designated for assignment by Miami on Sunday, and after going unclaimed on waivers, he will now report to Jacksonville. The 27-year-old has struggled to a .162 average with three doubles, one RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base over 68 at-bats in 22 contests with the Marlins this season. |

Zach Brzykcy Zach Brzykcy Getting sent back down
Thu, Jun 25, 2026, 5:07 PM
The Marlins are going to option Brzykcy to Triple-A Jacksonville prior to Friday's game versus the Cardinals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Brzykcy was recalled to the Marlins on Monday, but did not appear in any games. It is the second time during the 2026 season that the right-hander will have been brought up by the Marlins and did not appear in any games before being sent back down. A corresponding move is yet to be revealed, but it is expected to be Max Meyer coming off of the bereavement list to start in Friday's series opener versus the Cardinals. |

Connor Norby Connor Norby Heading to Triple-A
Thu, Jun 25, 2026, 5:00 PM
The Marlins are going to option Norby to Triple-A Jacksonville prior to Friday's game versus the Cardinals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Analysis: Norby has had a dismal June with a .194/.306/.290 slash line across 36 plate appearances. The utility fielder had been seeing a decrease in playing time in June, and now he will try to reset in Triple-A. A corresponding move is yet to be revealed. |

John King John King Pockets fourth win in June
Thu, Jun 25, 2026, 10:08 AM
King (5-1) was credited with the win Wednesday against the Rangers, allowing one hit and striking out one in a scoreless inning of relief.
Analysis: Eury Perez worked 4.2 innings in his return from the IL, and King got the final out in the fifth inning with the game tied 1-1 before the Marlins took the lead for good in the bottom of the frame. King has made nine appearances in June and come away with a win in four of them while producing a stellar 0.93 WHIP, 0.83 WHIP and 7:0 K:BB in 9.2 innings. The 31-year-old southpaw will be hard-pressed to maintain that pace, but King's hardly alone this season in racking up reliever wins at an impressive rate -- Milwaukee's Aaron Ashby leads all MLB pitchers with 10 victories, and Colorado's Antonio Senzatela has eight wins in just 23 relief outings. |

Otto Lopez Otto Lopez Powers offense in Wednesday's win
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 5:18 PM
Lopez went 2-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Rangers.
Analysis: The breakout shortstop ended up supplying the game-winning hit when he took Cole Winn deep in the eighth inning. Lopez has reeled off three straight multi-hit efforts as part of a six-game hit streak, and his .340 batting average on the season continues to pace the majors. At the 80-game mark, he's also delivered six homers, 16 steals, 35 RBI and 51 runs. |

Pete Fairbanks Pete Fairbanks Collects 12th save
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 5:15 PM
Fairbanks recorded his 12th save of the season Wednesday in a 4-2 win over the Rangers, giving up one run on one hit. He didn't walk or strike out a batter.
Analysis: The right-hander was taken deep by Joc Pederson for a second straight day, but Fairbanks otherwise cruised through the ninth inning on 13 pitches (10 strikes). Despite his success in save chances -- he's converted six straight and is 12-for-14 on the year -- Fairbanks has looked shaky in June, serving up three homers and getting scored upon in four of 10 appearances while compiling a 5.58 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 11:4 K:BB over 9.2 innings. |

Eury Perez Eury Perez Limited workload in return
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 5:09 PM
Perez didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Rangers, allowing one run on three hits over 4.2 innings. He struck out one without walking a batter.
Analysis: Activated from the IL earlier in the day after recovering from a thigh injury that had sidelined him since May 27, Perez was limited to 68 pitches (44 strikes) and fell one out short of qualifying for the victory, as Miami took the lead for good in the bottom of the fifth. The 23-year-old right-hander carries a 4.41 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 73:28 K:BB through 67.1 innings on the season, but he's given up one earned run or fewer in his last three trips to the mound, and he could be poised for a monster second half if he can stay healthy. Perez should get stretched out to a more normal workload in his next outing, which is set to come on the road early next week in Colorado. |

Owen Caissie Owen Caissie Swats ninth homer
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:59 AM
Caissie went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's win over the Rangers.
Analysis: He also struck out two more times, but Caissie provided what proved to be crucial insurance runs in the fifth inning when he took Jose Corniell deep on a first-pitch changeup that caught way too much of the plate. Caissie's up to nine homers on the season, and four of them have come over 17 contests in June -- a stretch in which he's slashing .191/.273/.489 with six runs, 14 RBI and a 32.7 percent strikeout rate. |

Pete Fairbanks Pete Fairbanks Stumbles in non-save situation
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:54 AM
Fairbanks gave up two runs on two hits in the ninth inning of Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Rangers. He struck out one.
Analysis: Called in to protect a 6-2 lead, Fairbanks made things interesting by serving up a two-out solo shot to Joc Pederson before hitting Wyatt Langford with a pitch and giving up an RBI triple to Brandon Nimmo. Josh Jung then nearly tied the game on a hanging slider, but instead the ball came up a couple feet short of the fence in center field for the final out. Fairbanks has had a bumpy June, posting a 5.19 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 11:4 K:BB in 8.2 innings, but he's gone a perfect 5-for-5 in save chances this month while adding a win and a hold in nine appearances. |

Dax Fulton Dax Fulton Headed back to Triple-A
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:50 AM
The Marlins optioned Fulton to Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.
Analysis: Fulton's stay with the Marlins lasted just one week, with the lefty striking out three batters and allowing no hits and one walk over three scoreless innings between his two relief appearances. He'll head back to Jacksonville and will likely move back into the rotation while he gives up his spot on the Marlins' 26-man active roster to right-hander Eury Perez (gracilis), who was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start Wednesday against the Rangers. |

Javier Sanoja Javier Sanoja Out of lineup Wednesday
Wed, Jun 24, 2026, 9:34 AM
Sanoja is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rangers.
Analysis: It's a routine day off for Sanoja, who picked up two hits in Tuesday's win over Texas. Leo Jimenez will handle third base for the Marlins in Sanoja's stead. |
