Marlins News
The Miami Marlins are riding a wave of momentum after last night's 5-2 win over the Mets, with Liam Hicks driving in two runs and Griffin Conine and Javier Sanoja chipping in homers to silence trade rumors ahead of the deadline. With Otto Lopez's trade discussions seemingly dead due to Miami's high asking price, the focus shifts to the return of rookie Owen Caissie from the injured list, adding fresh energy to the lineup. Despite a lukewarm recent record of 4-3 and a troubling nine players on the injured list, the Marlins cling to a 56-55 record, just above .500. As they prepare for another matchup against the Mets, the question remains: can this squad stay afloat amid injuries and trade speculation?
