Free Bally Sports+ promotion details; Marlins offense limited by another lefty

On Monday, Roddery Muñoz continued to be very susceptible to home runs, allowing three more of them to the Royals. Predictably, Cole Ragans (6.0 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 11 K, 108 pitches/68 strikes) had an easy time with Miami's lineup, as most left-handers do. Josh Bell sat out his first game of the season. The Marlins lost, 4-1.

Down on the farm, RHP Eliazar Dishmey won Florida State League Pitcher of the Week. The FCL Marlins swept their doubleheader, winning 4-2 and 6-5. They stole 11 bases in 13 offensive innings! LHP Luis Cesar (5.0 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 3 K) lowered his ERA to 1.08. DSL Marlins won, 9-3. DSL Miami won, 9-5. The Marlins finished the "first half" of the minor league season with a higher winning percentage than any other organization, and that was prior to this undefeated day.

🔷 The Marlins gave up barely anything to acquire relievers Declan Cronin and Calvin Faucher this past offseason. Now, they could be flipped to contenders for prospect reinforcements, writes Kevin Barral.

🔷 In an interview with the Marlins Radio Network, LHP Thomas White (FOF #1 prospect) describes figuring out his changeup this season and turning his slurve into a "true slider" by throwing it harder. "Narrowing my misses was my big goal this year and I think I've accomplished that pretty well."

🔷 FSL Network went around the bases with OF Colby Shade. Shade leads all Marlins minor leaguers with 31 stolen bases this season.

🔷 Elsewhere around baseball, the Guardians reached 50 victories and have won six in a row. The White Sox were shut out for the 11th time this season. The Cubs blew a 4-0 lead to the Giants. Both teams are 37-42, which is still within striking distance of a National League Wild Card berth, but that's actually tied for the third-worst record in the NL, ahead of only the Marlins and Rockies. Phase 1 of MLB All-Star voting remains open through June 27.
