SEASON IN REVIEW: The Story of the 2026 Miami Marlins

Miami Marlins cap season with Sandy Alcantara’s heroics—how much momentum does this team take into the offseason?

Ethan Eibe focused on the Marlins’ one-win improvement, spotlighting Sandy Alcantara’s dominance, Eury Perez’s breakthrough finale, and surprises from Javier Sanoja, Heriberto Hernandez, Otto Lopez, and Joe Mack. The discussion explored Clayton McCullough’s future as manager, persistent depth issues, underperformers like Jakob Marsee and Agustin Ramirez, and roster decisions surrounding veterans and emerging prospects. Key topics included bullpen struggles, the need for established talent over “projects,” offseason priorities around defense, base running, and leadership in the clubhouse. Can Peter Bendix’s front office steer Miami toward a true contender, or will gaps continue to hold back this franchise?
