    More information about "Marlins All-Star special and updated state of the rotation"
    With the MLB All-Star break right around the corner, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout discuss what the experience is like behind the scenes with Fish On First's resident All-Star, AJ Ramos. The guys also catch up on the Marlins' continued stretch of excellent play, Janson Junk's return to the starting rotation and the loss of Owen Caissie to a calf injury You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. AJ was one of five Marlins representatives at the 2016 All-Star festivities, joined by Giancarlo Stanton, José Fernández, Marcell Ozuna and Fernando Rodney. He recalls getting the news of his selection straight from team owner Jeffrey Loria. Stanton won the Home Run Derby that year, while the American League won the All-Star Game itself, 4-2. Marlins manager Clayton McCullough confirmed on Thursday that Max Meyer will not participate in the game this year. Otto Lopez is expected to be used off the bench.

    Every month, Fish Unfiltered takes Miami Marlins fans "Inside the Dugout," bringing you an extended, exclusive interview with Marlins manager Clayton McCullough. During our June sitdown, McCullough speaks with AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout about his team's red-hot performance in June, potentially getting Agustín Ramírez reps at first base and how Eury Pérez and Janson Junk are progressing during their injury rehab. He also discusses Leo Jiménez's role on the roster and all aspects of MLB All-Star festivities, confirming that he will not be part of the National League's coaching staff this year. You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. With a 14-4 June record entering Monday, the Marlins are easily on pace for their best month of McCullough's managerial tenure. They're in the midst of an eight-game winning streak at home, which is the longest in loanDepot park's history. Injured right-hander Eury Pérez threw a pitch design session shortly after the interview. He could potentially rejoin Miami's starting rotation on Wednesday if he's deemed to be at full strength. Fellow starter Janson Junk is scheduled to throw live batting practice on Tuesday. If all goes well, he will make his first minor league rehab start on Sunday.

    With Peter Bendix in charge of baseball operations, it's never as simple as "buyer or seller" for the Miami Marlins. The club leads Major League Baseball with 11 wins in June, but the roster is far from perfect and any move the Marlins make will take the long-term consequences into account. AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout discuss what's been working for the Fish lately, the "popularity contest" that is MLB All-Star Game fan voting, factors to consider when negotiating a potential Sandy Alcantara trade and much more. You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. In an article for ESPN earlier this week, Jeff Passan estimated that there is a 40% chance of the Marlins trading Alcantara prior to the August 3 deadline. Passan listed the Chicago Cubs, Arizona Diamondbacks, Cleveland Guardians, San Diego Padres, Athletics, Tampa Bay Rays, Atlanta Braves, Chicago White Sox and Milwaukee Brewers as "best fits" for his services. The most expensive player on the 2026 Marlins payroll, Alcantara is under control next season via a $21 million club option. He leads MLB in innings pitched and is four strikeouts away from becoming the franchise all-time leader in that category. The right-hander's 4.18 ERA and 3.98 FIP are almost precisely in line with what he did in 2023, though that's a far cry from what the ace of a contending team is expected to produce. The article also mentioned Marlins relievers Pete Fairbanks, Anthony Bender, Lake Bachar, Michael Petersen, Calvin Faucher and John King as potential trade candidates. The Marlins return home to loanDepot park on Friday for a six-game homestand against the San Francisco Giants and Texas Rangers. After that, they'll be precisely halfway through the 2026 regular season. View full article

Every month, Fish Unfiltered takes Miami Marlins fans "Inside the Dugout," bringing you an extended, exclusive interview with Marlins manager Clayton McCullough. During our May sitdown, McCullough speaks with Isaac Azout, AJ Ramos and Kevin Barral about Max Meyer's career year, Braxton Garrett's demotion, the process of deciding on a daily lineup and why Marlins batters have rarely used ABS challenges. He always gives a vote of confidence to struggling right-hander Eury Pérez and tries to remember every player who started for Miami in his managerial debut on Opening Day 2025. You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. The Marlins enter Wednesday with a 22-27 record, 11 games out of first place in the National League East and seven games back of the final NL wild-card spot. Among the season's biggest surprises: Meyer dramatically outperforming Pérez. Through 10 starts apiece and approximately the same overall workload, Pérez's ERA is practically doubled Meyer's (5.33 to 2.85), with the latter doing a far better job of filling up the strike zone and suppressing home runs.

The Miami Marlins roster is rapidly being infused with a new wave of young talent. AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout share their first impressions of Joe Mack, Josh Ekness and William Kemper, plus look ahead to Robby Snelling potentially taking over Chris Paddack's old starting rotation spot. Then, Kevin and Ely Sussman conduct an exclusive interview with Connor Norby. Newly converted to first base, Norby discusses his comfort level at the position, the evolution of his plate approach, the camaraderie inside the Marlins clubhouse and much more. You can find Fish Unfiltered and Fish On First LIVE on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. Entering Wednesday, Norby is slashing .238/.341/.390 through 33 games with a career-high 108 wRC+. Norby had one of the highest chase rates on the team in previous seasons, but he currently ranks in the 77th percentile across MLB in that category, per Baseball Savant. A full-time third baseman in 2025, Norby has only made starts at first base and designated hitter this season. He ranks slightly above average in outs above average at 1B and slightly below average in defensive runs saved. The Marlins are in the midst of a three-game series against the Baltimore Orioles, who drafted and developed Norby, only to ship him away at the 2024 trade deadline. View full article
