Agustin Ramirez Notches Two Hits In MLB Debut

Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez had a debut to remember, going 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run scored, and a stolen base in a 6-3 win over the Cincinnati Reds. First game? Check. First hit? Check. First steal? Check. First win? Check. It couldn't have gone much better for the Marlins' No. 4 prospect, who has a very good shot at getting some playing time if he keeps up the strong play. Ramirez hit .267 with a .845 OPS while smacking 25 homers and swiping 22 bags in the minors last year, so his upside is a five-category contributor at a position that doesn't have many like that. He's worth an add for anyone who isn't set at the catcher position.

Jesus Tinoco Notches Second Save

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Jesus Tinoco was called upon to hold a three-run lead versus the Cincinnati Reds on Monday. It appears both Calvin Faucher and Anthony Bender were unavailable, so Tinoco got the call to close out this game. Tinoco didn't have any issues as he tossed a perfect ninth inning to record his second save of the season. This is now back-to-back save chances for Tinoco, but fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited. The right-hander doesn't appear to be the primary option for saves and will probably only get occasional chances.

Max Meyer Records 14 Strikeouts

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Max Meyer posted an unbelievable performance during Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. The right-hander had his swing-and-miss stuff going as the Reds could barely touch him during this outing. Meyer tossed six scoreless innings, allowing five hits, and striking out 14 batters along the way. The 26-year-old already registered double digit strikeouts by the fourth inning of Monday's contest. Meyer has been excellent early in the season with three earned runs or less in every outing so far. He'll take a 2.10 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 41/7 K/BB ratio across five starts into his next outing against the Seattle Mariners. Meyer is likely going to be a popular waiver wire addition after this epic performance.

Kyle Stowers Sitting Against Southpaw

Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers is not in the starting nine on Monday evening when the Marlins face Cincinnati left-handed pitcher Nick Lodolo. Stowers has only made five starts against left-handed pitching this season. When facing lefties, Stowers has been productive, holding a .500 AVG, but will be held out of the lineup. Through the early part of the campaign, Stowers has held a strong .298/.381/.401 slash line with three doubles and one home run. Under the hood, he has generated an elite 17.0 percent rate with a 51.5 percent hard-hit rate, which are both above the average marks. Instead, Jesus Sanchez will get the nod in right field, which opens up the DH spot for Ronny Simon. Fantasy managers should expect Stowers to return to the starting nine on Tuesday when they face right-hander Nick Martinez. The Marlins are best to fade in DFS this evening, facing Lodolo, who enters this game with a solid 2.31 ERA.

Rob Brantly Placed On 10-Day Injured List

The Miami Marlins have placed catcher Rob Brantly (lat) on the 10-day injured list with a right lat strain. In a corresponding move, the Marlins promoted catching prospect Agustin Ramirez from Triple-A Jacksonville. Brantly was only able to appear in three games before suffering his injury. During this brief stint, Brantly has tallied three hits across seven at-bats with one RBI. The 35-year-old inked a minor-league contract with the Marlins during the winter. Throughout his 10-year MLB career, the 35-year-old has appeared in 141 games and has held a .228/.286/.323 slash line with 21 doubles and seven home runs. While he remains sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Ramirez to operate in the top spot on the depth chart alongside Liam Hicks. Brantly is not worth stashing in any fantasy format, as he may not be guaranteed a spot on the roster when he returns.

Javier Sanoja Hits First MLB Homer

Miami Marlins outfielder Javier Sanoja had a huge day at the dish on Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a go-ahead three-run homer in the eighth inning of a 7-5 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Sanoja added two runs and five RBI to the impressive line. The homer was the rookie's first big-league shot, and it was an important one. The 22-year-old was a top-20 prospect coming into the year for the Marlins, but hasn't been given a ton of playing time to work with so far. He's now hitting .350 with a .822 OPS, so maybe that will change. Still, for the time being he can be left on waivers in all but the deepest formats.

Agustin Ramirez Headed To Majors

Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez is being recalled to the major league roster and is expected to make his debut against the Reds this homestand, according to Craig Mish. The top prospect was slashing .258/.320/.500 with three home runs and five stolen bases in Triple-A, which are numbers that will certainly play at a weak position. In 126 games between Double-A and Triple-A in 2024, he hit .267 with 25 home runs and 22 steals. That type of power and speed is extremely rare for a catcher, making him worth an add in all two-catcher leagues.

Griffin Conine • LF • Marlins

Griffin Conine Placed On 60-Day Injured List

The Miami Marlins have placed outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list due to a dislocated left shoulder. Conine suffered this injury when sliding into second base during Saturday's contest. The 27-year-old was swinging a hot bat during the early part of the campaign as he held an impressive .281/.352/.438 slash line. He went deep once and added seven doubles, which are the seventh most in the National League. Under the hood, the Duke product generated a strong 15.6 percent barrel rate and a 51.1 percent hard-hit rate, which placed him in the 83rd and 81st percentiles, respectively. Fantasy managers in deeper NL-only formats should consider stashing Conine on their IR if they have room, as he will continue to have an everyday role in the Miami lineup when he returns to action. With Conine sidelined, Jesus Sanchez should see time in left field, which will open up the DH spot for Eric Wagman or Graham Pauley.

Griffin Conine Suffers Dislocated Shoulder

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) exited early during Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Conine dislocated his left shoulder while sliding into second base. He was removed from the contest and Javier Sanoja took over in left field. The team has announced Conine suffered a dislocated left shoulder which almost certainly means he's headed to the injured list. The 27-year-old has been a decent bat for the Marlins this season. The expectation is that Sanoja and Dane Myers would see more playing time if Conine lands on the injured list.

Patrick Monteverde Promoted To Major Leagues, George Soriano Optioned

The Miami Marlins have promoted left-handed pitcher Pat Monteverde to the major league roster prior to Saturday's contest against the Philadelphia Phillies. In a corresponding move, the Marlins optioned right-handed pitcher George Soriano to Triple-A Jacksonville. Monteverde has yet to appear in an MLB contest. Through the start of the Triple-A regular season, Monteverde has logged nine 1/3 innings to the tune of a 4.82 ERA and a strong 1.07 WHIP. He has struck out six batters and served up four walks. Last season, the southpaw spent most of the season with Jacksonville and held a high 5.66 ERA with a 1.51 WHIP. Soriano has posted a 6.94 ERA through his first 10 innings of the season with Miami. Fantasy managers should expect Monteverde to operate in a low-leverage role in the Miami bullpen.

Agustin Ramirez Hits Third Home Run

Miami Marlins catching prospect Agustin Ramirez went 2-for-5 with his third home run of the Triple-A regular season on Thursday against Triple-A Memphis. Ramirez has enjoyed a strong start to the season and is nearing his MLB debut. Through 17 contests, the backstop has posted a .274/.338/.532 slash line with three home runs and five stolen bases. Ramirez was one of the prospects included in the Jazz Chisholm Jr. trade last summer. He enjoyed similar success at Triple-A last season, holding a .246/.345/.411 line with nine home runs and nine stolen bases. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on Ramirez's progression with Jacksonville, as he could push for an early MLB debut given his previous experience and success at Triple-A.

Connor Norby • 3B • Marlins

Connor Norby Activated And Making Season Debut On Thursday

The Miami Marlins announced on Thursday that they reinstated infield prospect Connor Norby (oblique) from the 10-day injured list and optioned infielder Graham Pauley to Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move. Norby is making the start at third base and is batting second in his 2025 debut against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks and left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez. The 24-year-old suffered a left-oblique strain at the end of spring training, which kept him out for the first couple weeks of the regular season. But now that he's healthy, Norby will settle in as Miami's starting third baseman, and he could be valuable in mixed fantasy leagues for his power. He went 4-for-8 with a home run in three rehab games with Jacksonville. The former second-rounder made his big-league debut last year with the Orioles and Marlins ad hit nine home runs in only 45 games played.

Robby Snelling Tallies Six Punchouts

Miami Marlins pitching prospect Robby Snelling tossed six innings of one-run ball in his outing against Double-A Columbus on Wednesday. Snelling allowed just four hits, one walk, and struck out six batters. This was a nice bounce-back outing for Snelling as he allowed eight hits and four runs (three earned) in his last start against Double-A Montgomery. Last summer, Snelling spent most of the campaign at the Double-A level before earning a brief taste of Triple-A. Across 109 1/3 innings at Double-A, the southpaw held a 5.35 ERA with a 1.53 WHIP. Fantasy managers should monitor his progression at Double-A, as he should be in the mix for an early promotion to Triple-A Jacksonville. If the 21-year-old continues to produce well, he may be in contention for a late-season MLB debut.

Eury Pérez • SP • Marlins

Eury Perez A Month Away From Rehab Assignment

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez (elbow) threw 45 pitches to live hitters on Monday and got up and down three times, according to manager Clayton McCullough. It's looking like Perez is around a month from potentially beginning a minor-league rehab assignment as he makes his way back from Tommy John surgery that he had in April of last year. If the 22-year-old can avoid any setbacks in his long recovery, he could be an option to make his 2025 season debut sometime in the middle of May. He still has a ways to go, but the Dominican hurler is an intriguing fantasy stash because of what he did in his rookie campaign in 2023. Perez posted a sharp 3.15 that year to go with a 1.13 WHIP, 108 strikeouts and 31 walks in just 91 1/3 innings in 19 starts. Given his lack of experience, expect the Marlins to treat him with kid gloves upon his return from TJ surgery.

Ryan Weathers Throws Bullpen On Tuesday

Miami Marlins left-hander Ryan Weathers (forearm) threw a bullpen session on Tuesday at loanDepot Park before the game against the Arizona Diamondbacks and will have a couple more bullpen sessions before going on a minor-league rehab assignment, according to El Extra Base's Daniel Alvarez-Montes. Weathers said over the weekend that he could join Miami's starting rotation in the first week of May, barring any setbacks. The 25-year-old southpaw is recovering from a left flexor strain that he suffered in spring training, but he's getting closer to being able to make his 2025 debut. The former first-round pick by the San Diego Padres in 2018 is worth stashing in most fantasy formats while he rehabs, as he showed signs in 2024 in his first full season with the Fish of a potential breakout this year.

Jesús Sánchez • CF • Marlins

Jesus Sanchez Activated From Injured List And Starting On Tuesday

The Miami Marlins announced on Tuesday that they activated outfielder Jesus Sanchez (oblique) from the 10-day injured list, and he's starting in center field and batting in the two-hole against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Merrill Kelly at loanDepot Park. Sanchez will be making his season debut on Tuesday after straining his left oblique in spring training. Now that he's healthy, the 27-year-old will be a regular starter in Miami's outfield and deserves attention in mixed fantasy leagues if he's still on the waiver wire. Although he has never reached the 20-homer mark in his career, Sanchez makes loud contact and has an intriguing power/speed profile. He'll be an interesting DFS play right away in the No. 2 spot in the batting order as well, and he has a home run and three RBI in only four career at-bats against Kelly.

Xzavion Curry • SP • Marlins

Xzavion Curry Sent To Triple-A Jacksonville

The Miami Marlins have sent right-handed pitcher Xzavion Curry to Triple-A Jacksonville. Curry was designated for assignment by the Marlins earlier this week and was not claimed on waivers. Curry made three appearances with the Marlins during the early part of the campaign and tossed three innings of work to the tune of a 6.00 ERA with a 2.33 WHIP. Last season, Curry logged 42 2/3 innings split between the Marlins and the Cleveland Guardians. He held a 4.64 ERA with a strong 1.03 WHIP during this stint. He tallied just 28 punchouts but showed strong command, serving up just seven free passes. Through 114 2/3 career innings at the Triple-A level, Curry has struggled and posted a 5.81 ERA with a 1.43 WHIP. Fantasy managers should expect Curry to be in the mix to return to the majors later in the summer.

Adam Mazur Strikes Out Five In Latest Outing

Miami Marlins pitching prospect Adam Mazur continued his strong start to the campaign on Sunday afternoon. In this outing, Mazur logged four 1/3 shutout innings. He struck out five batters and allowed just two hits. Since allowing two runs in his first start of the season, Mazur has logged nine 1/3 shutout frames. During these two starts, he has struck out 10 batters and allowed just five hits and one walk. This is a great sign for Mazur as he struggled to find much success at the Triple-A level last summer. Across 61 innings split between El Paso and Jacksonville, Mazur held a high 6.20 ERA with a 1.36 WHIP. During this stint, he struck out just 60 batters. He also received a brief taste of the majors last season, but posted a 7.49 ERA. He should be in the mix to join the Miami rotation later this season.

Eric Wagaman With Three Knocks In Marlins 11-4 Win On Sunday

Miami Marlins first baseman Eric Wagaman went 3-for-3 on Sunday with two runs scored and two walks. It was a nice afternoon for Wagaman, who is now slashing .231/.318/.359 on the season. The Marlins completed their three-game series against the Washington Nationals on Sunday and took two of three from them over the weekend. The Marlins had Wagaman batting in the cleanup spot on Sunday against a left-handed pitcher, which throughout the season could set up nicely for him as Xavier Edwards and Kyle Stowers batting in front of him both supporting a .406 and .410 on-base percentage, respectively. All that said, Wagaman is not recommended in most 12-team leagues but could be a pick-up in deeper leagues for those looking for a corner infielder if he continues to hit. Next for the Marlins is a three-game series starting Tuesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Kyle Stowers Stays Hot With Three Hits, Three Runs

Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers saw the ball well this weekend. In Miami's three-game series against Washington, Stowers went 7-for-13 with four runs scored and six RBI. Three of those runs came in Sunday's 11-4 win over the Nationals. Stowers also had three hits and two RBI in the game. Stowers is off to a surprisingly good start in 2025. Through 14 games played, he is hitting .314 with one home run, 10 RBI, eight runs, and a stolen base. Stowers is a recent adopter of the torpedo bat, making the change during last week's series in Atlanta. Stowers has recorded a hit in all but one game since. After a day off on Monday, the Marlins will host the Diamondbacks for three games.
