Marlins News
Max Meyer’s trip to the injured list with a neck strain is the latest blow to a Miami Marlins team already struggling, having dropped six of their last seven games, including a 1-3 loss to the Brewers yesterday. The Marlins’ pitching, which was once a strength, now faces the daunting task of filling the gap left by the All-Star right-hander while dealing with an overall run differential of -8 this week. As they prepare to face the Houston Astros, the team's recent offensive woes are glaring, with only three runs scored in their last game and an anemic average of just 3 runs per game over the past week. With fellow players like Otto Lopez and Liam Hicks showing some promise, the Marlins must rally quickly, or their postseason aspirations could slip further away.
