[Ely Sussman]

Marlins news roundup for 3/15/24

Fish On First is providing extensive coverage on location throughout Marlins spring training. Click here to keep up with our latest updates.

🔷 On Thursday, A.J. Puk and Sean Manaea started a sim game on the Marlins backfields, facing mostly Triple-A-bound Mets and Marlins hitters. Puk's final line: 5.0 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 5 K (threw somewhere in the neighborhood of 70 pitches). His build-up from reliever to starter continues to go smoothly.

🔷 Alex Carver details the professional development and burgeoning friendship between Noble Meyer and Thomas White.

🔷 Kevin Barral writes about why Mychal Givens signed with the Marlins and what made him an effective reliever prior to his injury-riddled 2023 season.

🔷 We asked Fish On First members to rank their top 30 Marlins prospects. Here's what they came up with.

🔷 Today's games: Marlins prospects (LHP Thomas White) vs. Cardinals prospects (RHP Tink Hence) in the seven-inning Spring Breakout showcase at 2:05 p.m., followed by the regularly scheduled Marlins (LHP Ryan Weathers) vs. Cardinals (LHP Steven Matz) Grapefruit League game at 6:05 p.m. Watch Spring Breakout on ESPN+ or MLB Network. The night game will be televised on Bally Sports Florida with Marlins play-by-play announcer Paul Severino on the mic for the first time this spring. You could also make the trip to Jupiter! I'll be in attendance.

🔷 Elsewhere around baseball, Adam Duvall (1/$3M) signed with the Braves. It continues a trend of reputable veterans with plenty left in the tank having to settle for extremely cheap free agent deals. Duvall OPS'd .834 last season! Gerrit Cole's worrisome elbow injury will not need season-ending surgery, though he's expected to miss at least one-quarter of the regular season. 

🔷 Sandy Alcantara has been an avid gamer for years and he'll have ample time for it throughout this season while rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. Alcantara will now be streaming his gaming sessions via the @Sagamingg22 Twitter account.
