  1. Kevin Barral - Isaac Azout
    This podcast is brought to you by Jet Ski Rentals of South Florida—offering Miami’s best jet ski and boat adventures. With six jet ski locations and over 120 boats, there’s something for every style and every budget. They’re reservation-based only. To inquire, call 305-990-2192, or check them out online at SFJetskiRentals.com. Make sure to use promo code FISHONFIRST to receive 10% off your next booking. With September underway, Kevin Barral, Isaac Azout and Ely Sussman discuss where the Miami Marlins stand in the National League Wild Card race. They analyze the usage of the club's starting pitchers, recent call-ups of Jared Serna and Graham Pauley, and how Leo Jiménez has stuck around all season despite such poor production. Then, Joe Mack joins Kevin and Isaac for an exclusive interview. Mack reflects on his developmental journey in the Marlins organization, where he has improved over the course of the 2026 season, using the ABS challenge system, forming relationships with his pitchers and what it feels like to be chasing a playoff spot. 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 recalled Mack from Triple-A Jacksonville on May 4 and he's been their primary catcher ever since. Through 87 MLB games played entering Thursday, Mack has slashed .234/.287/.409 with 12 home runs and a 89 wRC+. Thanks to elite defense, his overall contribution to the Marlins has been 2.0 fWAR (tied for third among all of their position players). Mack has caught 20 baserunners attempting to steal, trailing only William Contreras, Freddy Fermin and Patrick Bailey in that category. He has won 61.4% of his ABS challenges. Mack tells Fish Unfiltered that he takes pride in how much he has improved at blocking pitches compared to the previous few seasons. Partially a byproduct of that, the Marlins have thrown only 43 wild pitches as a team this season, a sharp decrease from 65 wild pitches in 2025 before his arrival. The Marlins will have club control of Mack through at least the 2032 season. View full article

To inquire, call 305-990-2192, or check them out online at SFJetskiRentals.com. Make sure to use promo code FISHONFIRST to receive 10% off your next booking. The past three games were a painful reality check for the Miami Marlins. Although still far away from being mathematically eliminated from NL Wild Card contention, they tumbled to six games back of the rival Philadelphia Phillies. AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout discuss the factors that contributed most to the sweep, continued awesome stretches for Eury Pérez and Griffin Conine and Triple-A players who are most deserving of promotions once the roster expands on September 1. Plus, AJ describes what it was like to be a player during the previous MLB lockout in the 2021-22 offseason. 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 Friday, the Marlins are four games back of the San Diego Padres for the third wild-card spot, with the Arizona Diamondbacks and St. Louis Cardinals in between them. View full article

The Miami Marlins emerged from the MLB trade deadline with an all-too-familiar flat performance on the road against the Atlanta Braves. AJ Ramos, Isaac Azout and Kevin Barral discuss the lowlights from that three-game sweep, share their final thoughts on the club's deadline moves and look ahead to the next three games against the Los Angeles Angels, who enter Friday with the worst record in Major League Baseball. 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. It's also been a notable week for former Marlins first-round draft picks. Jacob Berry, their 2022 first-rounder, was traded to the Kansas City Royals for cash considerations. This year's first-rounder, Jacob Lombard, made his minor league debut on Tuesday, hitting a home run for Low-A Jupiter. View full article

The Miami Marlins aren't making things simple for themselves. Earlier this month, all indications were that they'd be approaching the 2026 trade deadline as traditional buyers. One of the longest losing streaks in franchise history may nudge them in a different direction. AJ Ramos, Kevin Barral and Isaac Azout are joined by FanSided MLB insider Robert Murray to analyze where things stand with the deadline less than two weeks away. 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. After being on top of the baseball world throughout the month of June, the Marlins' momentum has been halted by a string of injuries and increasingly sloppy play. Entering Wednesday, they are in danger of being swept for a third consecutive series. Even so, they sit just a half-game back of the National League's final wild-card spot. Should the Marlins seek reinforcements from outside the organization, the most pressing needs are pitching and third base. View full article

In the midst of his ninth season leading the Miami Marlins, Bruce Sherman makes his long awaited Fish Unfiltered debut. The franchise's chairman, principal owner & control person joins Isaac Azout and Kevin Barral to discuss his business successes and remaining goals, the Marlins' 2026 performance on the field, his trust in Peter Bendix, his admiration for Sandy Alcantara and his message to fans who aren't yet convinced that the Fish can contend with MLB's lowest payroll. 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. Sherman is fast approaching his ninth anniversary of becoming the Marlins' control person. The team has twice qualified for the MLB postseason during that span (2020 and 2023), and coming out of the All-Star break, they hold the National League's third wild-card spot. However, the Marlins rank 27th in overall winning percentage, ahead of only the Chicago White Sox, Kansas City Royals and Colorado Rockies. Player payroll has decreased under Sherman's watch, especially when adjusting for inflation. Miami's projected payroll of $75 million this season is easily the league's lowest, per Roster Resource. Despite that, Sherman insists that the franchise is in excellent health financially. To that end, his ownership group spent $1.2 billion to acquire the Marlins in 2017, but a recent transaction involving new minority owners was reportedly based on an updated $1.55 billion valuation. Also, he attributes spending in the areas of technology and player development to the uptick in winning that the Fish have enjoyed dating back to last summer. View full article

    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.
