Expect a classic pitcher’s duel to open the series finale. Sandy Alcantara looks locked-in after 16 scoreless innings to start 2026; his fastball/changeup mix is razor-sharp and Cincinnati’s left-leaning middle order (Benson, Friedl) matches up poorly against him. Andrew Abbott counters with solid command and a low-3s ERA, but Miami’s right-hand pop (Liam Hicks, Owen Caissie) profiles well against his elevated four-seamer. Through five innings both aces trade zeros until Hicks ambushes a first-pitch heater in the fifth for a solo shot. Alcantara cruises into the sixth before Elly De La Cruz legs out a triple and scores on Sal Stewart’s grounder, Miami’s lone blemish. Once into the bullpens, the edge swings to the Marlins: Cincinnati’s high-leverage trio has been overworked, while Miami’s late-inning mix—Nardi, Faucher, Bender—remains fresh thanks to yesterday’s off-day for most relievers. Edwards sparks a seventh-inning rally with a leadoff single and swipes second, scoring on Otto Lopez’s gapper. An eighth-inning pinch double from Griffin Conine tacks on insurance against Emilio Pagán’s flat cutter. Alcantara hands the ball to Nardi for four outs, and Bender closes the door with a heavy sinker/slider combo. Miami’s superior contact hitters and a dominant Alcantara outing overcome Cincinnati’s recent head-to-head success, snapping the Reds’ three-game win streak. Final: Marlins 3, Reds 1.

Hunter Greene (RHP, CIN) cilja na povratak u srpnju nakon operacije lakta

Odgođeni raspored Greenea ostavlja Cincinnati ovisnom o Abottu (4.06 ERA), Singeru (6.18 ERA) i Paddacku (6.90 ERA), dok Reds sjede na 31-31 sa razlikom trčanja od -48 i bore se da ostanu konkurentni u NL Central.

Lyon Richardson Bira Slobodno Agentstvo Nakon DFA-a Redsa

Richardson je bilježio ERA od 13,50 u akciji nižih liga u ovoj sezoni bez MLB nadenja, što mu je odlazak činio rutinskom promjenom momčadi za Cincinnati (31-30, -41 razlika trčanja).

Orioles Stječu Kyle Nicolasa od Redsa

Nicolas nosi xwOBA od 0,863 tijekom minimalne akcije i krenuo je prema Triple-A, što predstavlja dodatak dubine umjesto neposredne rotacijske pomoći za Baltimore (29-33, razlika u trčanju -43).

Yunior Marté Bira Slobodnu Agenciju Nakon Reds DFA

Martéjevo odlazak uklanja sekundarnu dubinu iz bullpena Cincinnatija dok Red navigira s rekordom 5-4 u posljednjih 10 utakmica s rotacijom koja se već oslanja na Abbotta (4.02 ERA) dok Singer (6.18 ERA) i Paddack (6.90 ERA) nastavljaju s borbom.

Prospect Marlinsija Thomas White odsutan 3-4 mjeseca s iščašenjem kapsule ramena

Raspored Thomas Whiteove povrede ugrožava ostatak sezone 2026 za Miamijev najbolji prospect bacača. Rotacija Marlinsija je već sidrena s Meyer (ERA 2,81, 6-0) s ograničenom dubinom iza njega u višim manjim ligama.

Kardinali Vraćaju Izbor Pravila 5 Matta Pusharda Marlinima

Pushard nikad nije bacio inning za St. Louis (27,00 ERA u 0 IP), sletevši na IL gotovo odmah nakon izbora Pravila 5. Potez ima minimalan utjecaj na rotaciju za oba tima s obzirom na trenutnu 5-člansku grupu Miamija koju vodi Meyer (2,97 ERA, 74 SO).

Hernández: 2 HR, 3 RBI u pobjedu Marlins-a nad Nationals

Hernándezova noć s dva homeruna prekinula je niz od četiri poraza Miamija i donijela je Marlins njihovu prvu pobjedu u pet domacih utakmica (18-15). Bacanje Washingtona dozvolilo je 330 tecaja ove sezone (najgore u NL East), sto čini njihov rekord 31-30 iznenađujuće otpornim s obzirom na omjer pobjeda od 0,508.

Marlins biraju Brzykcy i Zubera iz Triple-A

Miami dodaje dubinu rotaciji koja se bori s izdržljivošću (Junk 4,80 ERA, 3-5 rekord; Alcantara 4,66 ERA) dok stoji 26-34 i 0-8 u gostujućim igrama tijekom svojih posljednjih pet utakmica.

Marlins biraju Zacha Brzykcy'a

Brzykcy ulazi u rotaciju Miami koju trenutno vodi Meyer (ERA 2.97, 5-0) ali koja se u velikoj mjeri oslanja na Alcantaru (ERA 4.66) i Junka (ERA 4.80, 3-5). Potez se bavi dubinom rotacije dok Miami stoji na 26-33 s razlikom u trkama od -20.
