Zach Thompson To Start Versus Cubs On Sunday

Miami Marlins pitcher Zach Thompson will draw the start for Sunday's series finale against the Chicago Cubs. He has pitched well during his last two outings, but this won't be an easy assignment. Wrigley Field can quickly turn into a hitter-friendly park, which is always frustrating for fantasy managers. The Cubs seem to always have […]

We are now almost three months into the 2021 season. We have passed the 60-game mark, the length of the 2020 MLB season.

Hey RotoBallers! Hope all is well in your world. Unfortunately it's the same old song and dance over here after Week 11. Six out of the seven days last week were what I would call "productive" in that I either profited some or broke even on a play or two that could've swung either way. […]

Cody Poteet Doesn't Finish The Fourth Inning On Friday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Cody Poteet was decent in a short start in Friday's 10-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Poteet had just come off the injured list due to a knee injury and hadn't had a chance to make any rehab starts, so he was never expected to go deep into this game […]

Miami Marlins outfielder Adam Duvall had a monster game on Friday against the Chicago Cubs. He went 3-for-4 with two home runs, a walk, three runs scored, and six RBI. Duvall is now in third place in the National League in RBI, and he collects them in bunches. He had a seven RBI game earlier […]

Cody Poteet Activated And Starting On Friday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Cody Poteet (knee) was activated from the injured list and will start Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs.

Isan Diaz Optioned To Triple-A

Miami Marlins infielder Isan Diaz was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville before Friday's game. Diaz was one of the worst players in all of baseball this season, but still got everyday playing time because Don Mattingly has no idea what he's doing. In 126 plate appearances, Diaz hit .146 with a 29.4 K%. He was also […]

Miguel Rojas Activated, Set To Start On Friday

The Miami Marlins have activated shortstop Miguel Rojas (finger) from the injured list and he will be in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs.
