The one thing Tyler Zuber has wanted more than anything in his career is as a save. He was able to do that today in the #Marlins win

The Miami Marlins are 3-0 to start the 2026 season, tying the second-best start in Franchise history (also 1997). It marks the third time they have swept their first series of a season (last, 2009, when the team started 4-0).

Can confirm that Victor Mesa Jr. is heading to the Tampa Bay Rays. He was traded for a minor league prospect. @francysromero was first with Mesa going to Tampa #Marlins @FishOnFirst

Just a quick comparison of Baseball Savant bubbles, for those who focus on that. On the left, newly acquired Bradley Blalock in 2025. On the right, Calvin Faucher, the season prior to being acquired by Miami These bubbles don’t equate to everything. #Marlins

#Marlins should not stop here for bullpen help. They have a solid bullpen, but getting an extra arm never hurts.
Pete Fairbanks has agreed to a one-year, $13 million deal with the Marlins, per source. @WillSammon was on it.

Reliever Pete Fairbanks and the Miami Marlins are in agreement on a one-year, $13 million contract, sources tell ESPN. Fairbanks, 32, had an $11 million option turned down by Tampa Bay and went onto the open market and beat it by $2 million. @WillSammon was first on the deal.

The trade market is heating up. Would love to see the #Marlins get involved here. Multiple trade pieces available out of Miami.

Even with the down year, Lowe would be a good buy-lowe candidate for the #Marlins He should have a handful of suitors, though
