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

[Patrick Mattern @PatMattern5R]

Another multi-hit game for Aiva Arquette in Pensacola, including his first Double-A home run. Very promising start to the season for the 7th overall pick

Jakob Marsee since 5/1:

.265/.368/.449
.366 wOBA
133 wRC+
0.4 WAR
+2 OAA

Hopefully this puts the AAA dialogue to sleep

[Miami Marlins @Marlins]

We’ve made the following roster moves:

[Patrick Mattern @PatMattern5R]

Even ignoring Mack’s plus bat speed and loud exit velocities, it’s a wonderful thought knowing the pitching staff will have an elite defender behind the plate for the foreseeable future

[Craig Mish @CraigMish]

Big news. Marlins will recall Joe Mack from AAA. Coming up tomorrow. Agustin Ramirez is being optioned.

[Jonathan @JonAndersen_5R]

Potential big upgrade for the #Marlins with the switch here.

Joe Mack is a wizard behind the plate with a huge pop offensively. Some risk with his bat, but a ton of power.

Agustin going to AAA is shocking, but necessary. Needs to have a factory reset and find himself again.

We’ve made the following roster moves:

[Marlins Communications @MarlinsComms]

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).

[Kevin Barral @kevin_barral]

The Miami Marlins are calling up Deyvison De Los Santos, per source

Fightin' Fish through every era. Teal Sundays are born.

[Kevin Barral @kevin_barral]

Can confirm that Victor Mesa Jr. is heading to the Tampa Bay Rays. He was traded for a minor league prospect.

@francysromeroFR was first with Mesa going to Tampa

NEW: Article by @PatMattern5R covering who the #Marlins should target with the 14th pick of the 2026 MLB draft

[Jonathan @JonAndersen_5R]

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

[Patrick Mattern @PatMattern5R]

Blalock is a name I’ve looked at for awhile as someone that could greatly benefit from escaping Coors Field. Big fan of this already

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Trade news: The Miami Marlins are acquiring right-hander Bradley Blalock from the Colorado Rockies for a minor league pitcher, sources tell ESPN. Blalock was DFA'd by the Rockies last week and gives Miami additional pitching depth after it traded Edward Cabrera and Ryan Weathers.

[Patrick Mattern @PatMattern5R]

For someone as injury prone as Weathers, Dillon Lewis is a fantastic get as the headliner. Loud exit velocities and the swing decisions improved as the year progressed. Another fun, high upside power bat joins the Marlins system.

[Patrick Mattern @PatMattern5R]

Feels like an appropriate time to reignite these comparisons
