Richard Bleier Ends Up On The Injured List

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Richard Bleier was placed on the 10-day injured list due to a mild left elbow triceps strain. Bleier was acquired from the Baltimore Orioles at the beginning of this month and had pitched fairly well out of the Marlins bullpen, but now he'll be forced to miss at least 10 days. […]

Richard Bleier Placed On IL With Triceps Strain

Miami Marlins left-handed pitcher Richard Bleier has hit the 10-day injured list due to a mild left triceps strain. Bleier recorded his third consecutive hold Friday against the Mets, but departed after just nine pitches. Having allowed just two hits through his first 4 ⅔ innings this year, Bleier figured to become a mainstay of […]

Edward Cabrera Dealing With Arm Discomfort

Miami Marlins top pitching prospect Edward Cabrera has been placed on a throwing program after dealing with some discomfort in his throwing arm. For now, the team does not seem to think it is a serious issue, but it helps to explain why the Marlins did not consider calling him up despite desperately needing arms […]

Sixto Sanchez Slowly Ramping Up Workload

Miami Marlins right-handed pitcher Sixto Sanchez is currently built up to about a three-inning workload, but the club will not consider calling up its top prospect until he can pitch around five innings. Sanchez has made just 18 starts at Double-A, although he has twirled a 2.53 ERA in that span. The centerpiece of the […]

Francisco Cervelli Drives In Three Runs On Friday

Miami Marlins catcher Francisco Cervelli had a nice game on Friday, driving in three runs with a second inning home run. It ended up being his only hit in the game, but that'll do for the Marlins and for his fantasy owners. Cervelli is hitting .227 with an .837 OPS. His true value comes from […]

Nick Vincent Earns A Save On Friday

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Nick Vincent earned a save on Friday, his first since the 2016 season. With Brad Boxberger and Brandon Kintzler both unavailable due to recent usage, Vincent stayed in to pitch the ninth inning after getting the Marlins through the eighth.

Nick Vincent Picks Up Save For Marlins

Miami Marlins reliever Nick Vincent picked up the save in 1.2 innings of work on Friday. Vincent was signed to a minor league contract at the end of July but was called up as the Marlins' roster began to thin after a COVID-19 outbreak. While it's good for Vincent that he locked down the save, […]

Closers and Saves Report - Week 3 Waiver Wire

Before this 60-game season started, we all knew every little thing would matter more. We knew that every game was, essentially, 2.7 times as important as a regular game in a 162-game season. We knew managers would have much shorter leashes on their underperforming players, and perhaps much quicker promotions for the quick starters. But […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/7/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Friday's games look to feature only a few big-ticket priced pitchers. The matchups for those several arms aren't quite as weak you would like, however.

Brandon Kintzler Escapes With His Third Save On Thursday

Jordan Yamamoto Struggles In Thursday's Start

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jordan Yamamoto struggled in his first start of the season on Thursday, lasting just four innings while allowing four runs on six hits. He struck out four and did not allow a walk but did give up two home runs. Yamamoto got in trouble last season when he threw too many […]

Brian Anderson Drives In Three Runs On Thursday

Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson drove in three runs in Thursday's win, going 2-for-4 with a triple and a single. Anderson is off to a hot start, now hitting .304 with a 1.060 OPS. Anderson should continue to hit in the middle of a suddenly-somewhat-impressive Marlins lineup and could be a key piece on […]

Jonathan Villar Has His First Big Day As A Marlin

Miami Marlins infielder/outfielder Jonathan Villar had his first big game as a Marlin on Thursday, going 3-for-5 out of the leadoff spot. Villar, in the lineup as the designated hitter for this one, hit a home run, scoring a run and driving in two. He'd been struggling a bit in a Marlins uniform, but today's […]

Monte Harrison Showcases Elite Speed With First Career Hit

Miami Marlins outfielder Monte Harrison has likely already been snatched in the vast majority of keepers leagues, but he may become a commodity in any season-long format should his tremendous speed translate to the Majors like it did Thursday.
