Liam Hicks takes us inside his 2026 breakout
Kevin Barral - Isaac Azout posted an article in Podcasts
It's time for the first of many Miami Marlins player interviews that we will be bringing you on Fish Unfiltered this season. AJ Ramos, Isaac Azout and Kevin Barral analyze a busy week for the Marlins against the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Reds (3-4 combined record in those series). Then, catcher Liam Hicks sits down with Isaac and Kevin to explain his excellent offensive performance early in 2026, the team's proficiency with the Automated Ball-Strike challenge system, receiving pitch calls from the dugout 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 Friday, Hicks is slashing .314/.390/.600 with a 173 wRC+ and just as many walks as strikeouts. He has driven in 13 runs already, tying a career-high for most over any 12-game span. The Canadian's versatility makes him useful on a daily basis, as he has made five appearances (two starts) at first base when he isn't behind the plate. Still pre-arbitration-eligible, the former Rule 5 draft pick is under Marlins club control through the 2030 season.-

Our final pre-Opening Day episode of Fish Unfiltered is an absolute banger. AJ Ramos, Isaac Azout and Kevin Barral break down the Miami Marlins' Opening Day roster. Then, Marlins manager Clayton McCullough joins for an exclusive interview, covering his spring training takeaways, lineup decisions, leadership style and more.

Among the nuggets that McCullough shared with us, Javier Sanoja will be Miami's starting third baseman on Friday against the Colorado Rockies.

We are ridiculously excited to welcome you to this new era of the Fish On First podcast! In our debut with the Foul Territory Network, Kevin Barral, Isaac Azout and Ely Sussman are joined by AJ Ramos. The former Marlins closer and current TV/radio broadcaster is also Fish Unfiltered's new co-host. The guys revisit the club's biggest offseason moves, project the 2026 starting rotation, and get AJ's take on pitching in high-leverage situations and adapting to various Major League Baseball rule changes. 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. A 21st-round draft pick of the Marlins in 2009, Ramos pitched parts of six MLB seasons for the Fish at the major league level (2012-2017).

He was selected to the 2016 National League All-Star team, posting a 2.90 FIP (2.81 ERA) with 40 saves that year. The right-hander later pitched for the New York Mets, Colorado Rockies and Los Angeles Angels. Ramos announced his retirement in April 2022 and has since made the pivot to broadcasting.

The final Fish Unfiltered episode of 2025 is overflowing with Miami Marlins content. Kevin Barral, Isaac Azout and Ely Sussman begin by discussing Saturday's trade sending Dane Myers to the Cincinnati Reds for outfield prospect Ethan O'Donnell, the addition of Pete Fairbanks to the Marlins bullpen and the latest reporting on trade candidate Edward Cabrera. Then, Kevin and Ely sit down with Victor Mesa Jr. Coming off his first taste of the big leagues, the 24-year-old outfielder takes us through his baseball journey and what he hopes to accomplish in 2026. You can find Fish Unfiltered on the Fish On First YouTube channel, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever else you get your pods. Our audio programming also includes Fish On First LIVE, The Offishial Show, Swimming Upstream and more. Although proud of his Cuban heritage, Mesa tells Fish Unfiltered that he will not be participating in the upcoming World Baseball Classic as he prioritizes his health and his major league career. Last season, he had three separate stints on the injured list. Even with Myers removed from Miami's outfield depth chart, Mesa faces an uphill battle to crack the Opening Day roster. Kyle Stowers and Jakob Marsee are locks to make it, with Griffin Conine and Heriberto Hernández very likely occupying the third outfield spot as platoon partners. Utilityman Javier Sanoja can absorb the remaining outfield reps. Connor Norby may also be in the mix depending on how he fares defensively during spring training. "I give my 100% and then whatever decision that they gotta (make), it's gonna be based on what we do on the field." Mesa said. "I'm not worried about it. I'm just worried about (doing) my job. If I do my job, I know I'm gonna help the team." Follow Victor (@victormesajr10) on Instagram.
