Latest news and updates about the Marlins
Saturday night’s content between the Nationals and the Miami Marlins was, by just about all accounts, a very forgettable night of baseball. Starter Jake Irvin tossed an up-and-down 6.0 innings of 4-run ball, and the Nats only put up 2 runs en route to a 4-2 loss to drop 9 games below .500. However, one […]
Baseball fans will likely remember a rather unlikely interaction back in 2021 between young Miami Marlins outfielder Victor Mesa Jr. and soccer superstar Lionel Messi. One was an upstart prospect who had yet to get his shot in the big leagues, while the other has been considered the best to ever play their sport, but […] The post Victor Mesa Jr. Has Found His Calling With the Rays appeared first on Just Baseball .
With injuries and trades, this Nats offense is a shell of its former self. We saw that in the Rangers series where they were shut out twice. However, baseball waits for nobody and the Nats need to keep chugging along. They will look to improve their woeful divisional record against the Marlins. With the injuries, […]
August 21: The Marlins selected Driscoll to the roster today and put Kempner on the 60-day injured list. August 19: Catcher Logan Driscoll has triggered an assignment clause in his minor league deal with the Rays and is headed to the Marlins, reports Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.

In going 1-for-3 with a walk in Wednesday’s 4-1 Phillies win against the Marlins, Bryce Harper continued one of the most patient months of his career. The two-time NL MVP’s August on-base percentage is .518 – on pace to be the highest single-month OBP of his career — while his walk rate is 30.1 percent. […]
The trade deadline has passed, and the Miami Marlins, who have continued to prove the preseason doubters wrong, did not do anything to bolster their big-league team. In fact, they did the opposite by trading one of their top-three hitters in their lineup and one of Clayton McCullough’s go-to bullpen arms. There is no doubt […] The post Top Marlins Duo Is Scuffling at the Worst Time Possible appeared first on Just Baseball .
After eight major league seasons, a Stolen Base Crown, and a World Series appearance with the New York Yankees, infielder Jon Berti has officially retired from baseball. Jon Berti, member of Yankees' 2024 AL championship team, retires after 8 MLB seasons: 'Hell of a journey' https://t.co/tStfhOFjvW pic.twitter.com/6fMFnrtnYF — New York Post Sports (@nypostsports) August 20, 2026 Berti made a name for himself during his five seasons with the Miami Marlins (2019-2023) where he slashed .258/.338/...
Veteran utilityman Jon Berti is calling it a career. The 36-year-old speedster made the announcement today on Instagram. Berti thanked his former teams, teammates, coaches, agents and fans in a heartfelt statement: After a lot of thought and consideration, I have decided to retire from professional baseball. It’s been a hell of a journey, full […]
The Phillies are HOT. They’ve now won six in a row with a 4-1 victory over the Marlins on Wednesday night, completing their second sweep in a row. Aaron Nola was dealing, with one earned run in seven innings: Noles threw 100 pitches for only the second time this season. The knuckle curve once again […] The post Aaron Nola is All the Way Back appeared first on Crossing Broad .
PHILADELPHIA — While the Phillies made their signing of free-agent pitcher Nestor Cortes official shortly after their 4-1 win over the Marlins at Citizens Bank Park to complete a series sweep over their National League East opponents, interim manager Don Mattingly did not seem to have too much certainty on Wednesday night about how the […]
As I searched for pictures of Aaron Nola to use for this recap, I found a picture of a rhinoceros instead. It turns out that there’s a zoo in France that has a rhino named Nola; I choose to believe that this is not coincidental, and that somewhere out there is a Francophone cheering group […]
Here are the lineups for the final game against Miami. Let’s discuss! For the Phillies: For the Marlins:
Another so-so Zach Wheeler outing was salvaged by the continued August heat wave of Alec Bohm and Bryson Stott as the Philadelphia Phillies (69-58) won their fifth straight game by a score of 6-4 against the Miami Marlins (64-63). Wheeler gave up two runs across five innings, striking out seven but issuing four walks as […]
PHILADELPHIA — Marlins manager Clayton McCullough gave the four-finger signal in the bottom of the sixth on Monday night, sending Trea Turner to first base with a man already on second. Left-hander John King had allowed two runs in the inning, and Miami did not want him to face the right-handed hitter with two outs […]

From the Yankees, Red Sox and Dodgers to the Pirates, Marlins and A's, every MLB front office is graded on a curve that includes the MLB trade deadline.
MLB has no dearth of controversial umpiring, but in a few cases, the decisions change the game results. Something similar happened during the Marlins-Phillies game on Monday. The Marlins were trailing 4-1 in the seventh inning with runners in scoring position. Javier Sanoja hit a ball down the left-field line that was originally called foul.

Marlins lefty Andrew Nardi will undergo elbow surgery, manager Clayton McCullough told reporters on Monday (link via Corey Seidman of MLB.com). That’ll obviously end his 2026 season and, depending on the nature of the procedure, is likely to impact next year as well. The news comes as a surprise considering Nardi wasn’t previously known to […]
PHILADELPHIA — Marlins manager Clayton McCullough walked onto the field with his arms outstretched and was thrown out by third-base umpire Todd Tichenor for arguing after a replay review. McCullough had actually won his challenge after first-base umpire Shane Livensparger had incorrectly called a bases-loaded line-drive to right field off the bat of Javier Sanoja […]
After a sweep against the Minnesota Twins where they scored a combined 23 runs over three games, they pull out a solid win as the Marlins try to cling to the wildcard race. It was all of the makings of a good team win. It started on the first ball in play of the night, […]

The Phillies are returning home to Citizens Bank Park on Monday as they begin a six-game homestand with three against the Miami Marlins. It is the last time the Phillies and Marlins will meet this season. The two division rivals enter this final matchup surprisingly close to each other in the standings. The Phillies (67-58) […]
Did the Phillies turn their season around with the sweep over the Twins? Or was that series just a brief upturn before they resume their frustrating play? We might find out this week, as the Phillies will host an opponent that’s been more all over the place than they have. You probably recall that the […]
