With still plenty of time to go before the deadline, the Marlins have made a surprising roster cut that represents a severe fall from grace for one former All-Star. It was announced today that the Marlins have designated veteran middle infielder Tim Anderson for assignment and will likely be releasing him.

(Photo by Mark Brown/Getty Images)   The Miami Marlins are off to an awful start and have scored the 29th-most runs in the league en route to a 21-39 record, and after 60 games it is time for the team to start shaking things up. The team made a decision today to part with one struggling injured veteran outfielder to continue giving all the playing time to Jazz Chisholm Jr., Bryan De La Cruz, and Jesus Sanchez. Team insider Craig Mish shared on Twitter that the Marlins are DFA’ing Avisail Garcia and will eat his remaining salary for 2024 including another $12 million in 2025 as well as his ..read more

(Photo by Rich Storry/Getty Images)   The 2024 Miami Marlins appear destined to suffer. It’s still too early, but they just can’t catch a break. They are, as of Thursday, 0-7 and dead last in the NL East, even behind the Washington Nationals. They are currently without many top pitchers, such as Sandy Alcantara, Edward Cabrera, and Eury Perez; and their offense is slashing a putrid .197/.274/.285 with a .559 OPS. To make matters worse, they just received some awful injury news on Perez, arguably the most talented pitcher in the organization. “Right-hander Eury Perez, one of the best pitch ..read more

(Photo by Megan Briggs/Getty Images)   The Miami Marlins, against all odds, made the postseason last year ahead of more talented teams such as the San Diego Padres, the New York Mets, the Chicago Cubs, and the Cincinnati Reds. It’s safe to say most players performed to the top of their abilities. This year? Well, things are not looking as good. After dropping Wednesday’s game against the Los Angeles Angels, 10-2, they suffered their seventh straight defeat. The worst part of all is that they still don’t know what it’s like to win an official game in 2024. Their awful start is putting them ..read more

(Photo by Rob Carr/Getty Images)   After a blistering MLB debut in 2020, the Miami Marlins appeared to have a pitching star in Sixto Sanchez. His arrow was definitely pointing up that year after posting a solid 3.46 ERA in 39 innings, with 33 strikeouts. But then he injured his shoulder and required surgery. Further complications in his recovery, conditioning issues, and other problems contributed to the right-hander not pitching in the majors after that promising debut four years ago. When Sanchez reported to spring training this year, he didn’t look in the best shape. However, he has be ..read more

(Photo by Mark Brown/Getty Images)   The Miami Marlins won 84 games and made last year’s playoffs. They were ousted early in the postseason, though, and it quickly became clear that it was not their year. Offseason acquisitions weren’t overly significant: only Tim Anderson is projected to be a starter from their haul. Christian Bethancourt, Vidal Brujan, and Nick Gordon all have some potential, but are projected to be bench players. For a team that just lost Jorge Soler and his power output, it is important to add some home-run pop to their lineup. There are some promising minor leaguers ..read more

(Photo by Mark Brown/Getty Images)   The Miami Marlins, despite losing Jorge Soler and other contributors, haven’t really made much noise in the 2023-24 offseason. They just added three pieces that project to be part of their bench: Vidal Brujan, Christian Bethancourt, and Nick Gordon. They are, however, interested in adding a shortstop via free agency. According to MLB insider Jon Morosi, they already made an offer to a potential starter there. “The Marlins have offered Tim Anderson a contract to be their primary shortstop, source confirms. Anderson, 30, has made all but 2 of his @MLB st ..read more

(Photo by Eric Espada/Getty Images)   The Miami Marlins are known for their stingy ways. They don’t usually have a spending spree in any offseason, and they are cautious of their finances to the point in which their fans are often frustrated. This year, they couldn’t agree with Jazz Chisholm Jr. on his 2024 salary. Since neither party was willing to budge, they ended up going to salary arbitration. The team ended up winning the case, according to MLB insider Jon Heyman. “Marlins win arbitration case with Jazz Chisholm. He will be paid $2.625M rather than the $2.9M he sought,” he tweeted ..read more

(Photo by Rich Storry/Getty Images)   There might not be a player in today’s MLB with better bat-to-ball skills than Miami Marlins infielder Luis Arraez. Say what you want about Arraez’s defense, or game power for that matter. He is not the perfect player. However, when it comes to putting the ball in play and putting the bat on the ball, he is as elite as they come. MLB uploaded a cool video on their social media channels showing some of Arraez’s hitting exercises in the batting cage. In the video, you can see some of his most obvious traits: balance, hand-eye coordination, contact, and ..read more

(Photo by Mark Brown/Getty Images)   It has been known for quite some time now that the Miami Marlins were going to hire Rachel Balkovec to join them as their director of player development. However, the team hadn’t made it official yet. That happened on Tuesday, so yes: it’s now official. “The @Marlins have hired Rachel Balkovec as Director of Player Development. Balkovec managed the Yankees Single-A affiliate Tampa Tarpons from 2022-23,” MLB tweeted. The @Marlins have hired Rachel Balkovec as Director of Player Development.
