Marlins' Trevor Rogers: Picks up win
Rogers (2-9) allowed two runs on six hits over 5.1 innings Friday, striking out one batter and earning a win over Milwaukee.
Rogers forced just five whiffs and tied his season low with one punchout but still secured his first win since May 15. He gave up a solo homer to Rhys Hoskins in the third inning and allowed another run in the fourth. Rogers did not complete six innings in any of his five July starts; still, he produced a solid 3.38 ERA through 24 innings this month. Rogers now owns a 4.53 ERA with an 85:46 K:BB through 21 starts. His next outing is currently lined up to be in Atlanta.

Marlins' Bryan De La Cruz: Goes deep in win
De La Cruz went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Friday's win over the Brewers.
De La Cruz gave Miami an early lead with a two-run blast in the first inning. It was his 18th long ball of the year but just his third in July. De La Cruz has collected multiple hits in three of his last five games, going 8-for-23 (.348) during that span. He's now slashing .243/.287/.417 with 36 extra-base hits and 49 RBI this season.

Simpson (elbow) will throw a live bullpen session Saturday with Single-A Jupiter, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Simpson has been cleared to face batters after completing a pair of bullpens within the last week. While he threw 35 pitches in his previous session, Simpson is expected to throw only 25 pitches Saturday. The southpaw underwent elbow surgery in late April, but he is expected to pitch again in 2024.

Marlins' Austin Kitchen: Called up by Marlins
Miami recalled Kitchen from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.

Marlins' Max Meyer: Confirmed for start Saturday
Meyer will be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to start Saturday in Milwaukee, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
The young right-hander has spent more than three months at Jacksonville even as injuries decimated the Marlins' rotation depth, but he will finally get the call back to the majors. Meyer was initially limited to 3-to-4 innings at a time after being sent down, but he was starting to get stretched out more in his last few starts with Jacksonville. De Nicola notes that while Miami will still be mindful of Meyer's workload down the stretch, the club doesn't appear to have a hard cap on his innings the rest of the way. Meyer has thus far logged 75 innings between Miami and Jacksonville this season.

Marlins' Emmanuel Ramirez: Back in majors
The Marlins recalled Ramirez from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
He'll be taking the roster spot vacated by A.J. Puk, who was traded to the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Ramirez has pitched well in seven relief appearances for the Marlins this season, yielding just one run with a 9:1 K:BB.

Marlins' Max Meyer: Rejoining rotation this weekend
The Marlins will recall Meyer from Triple-A Jacksonville to rejoin their rotation this weekend in Milwaukee, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.
Meyer last pitched with Jacksonville on July 20 and the Marlins have an opening in their rotation Saturday, so he'll be on plenty of rest for the start. The young right-hander was sent down back in April as a means to manage his workload, and he's pitched well of late, allowing just two runs with a 23:6 K:BB over 19 innings covering his last four Triple-A starts. Meyer has averaged 77.5 pitches in those outings, with a high of 86, and the Marlins will continue to keep a close eye on his workload down the stretch. Even with likely restrictions, Meyer is worthy of being scooped back up in fantasy leagues where he's available. He posted a 2.12 ERA and 14:3 K:BB over 17 frames in three starts for the Marlins earlier this season.

Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Swipes fifth bag
Edwards went 2-for-4 with a run scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Thurday's extra-inning loss to the Orioles.
Batting second against ace right-hander Corbin Burnes, Edwards delivered his ninth multi-hit performance in the last 15 games while stealing his fifth bag of the year. The 24-year-old shortstop is slashing a blistering .431/.500/.471 over that stretch with seven RBI, nine runs and a 9:7 BB:K, and the move to the top of the order is likely to stick as long as he keeps raking. If the trade rumors circling Jazz Chisholm pan out, Edwards seems likely to become the Marlins' leadoff hitter in August.

Marlins' Huascar Brazoban: Might get chance to close
Brazoban is a candidate to step into the closer role for the Marlins in the event Tanner Scott gets traded, Kaushik Sampath of the Miami Herald reports.
Andrew Nardi is viewed as the top option to replace Scott, especially with A.J. Puk having been shipped to the Diamondbacks, but Brazoban might also be a factor in the ninth inning. The right-hander missed the beginning of the season due to visa issues, but since making his 2024 debut at the beginning of June, he has posted a 3.14 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 31:11 K:BB through 28.2 innings. He's taken things to another level over the last month or so, giving up zero earned runs over his last eight games with a 0.79 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 12.2 innings. Brazoban hasn't seen much high-leverage work this season, however, managing only one hold and one win in 18 appearances.

Marlins' Andrew Nardi: Could be next in line to close
Nardi might step into the closer role if Tanner Scott is traded, Kaushik Sampath of the Miami Herald reports.
Nardi had a brutal start to the season, getting tagged for eight runs in his first four appearances, but since then the lefty has produced a palatable 3.50 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 47:10 K:BB through 36 innings. Scott becomes a free agent in the offseason and is almost certain to be dealt by next week's trade deadline, and with A.J. Puk now in Arizona, the path to the ninth inning could be fairly clear for Nardi. Huascar Brazoban could also be in the mix for closing duties in the wake of a Scott trade.

Marlins' Josh Bell: Goes deep again Thursday
Bell went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in a loss to the Orioles on Thursday.
Baltimore built a 6-0 lead before Bell put Miami on the board with a sixth-inning solo shot to center field. The Marlins later strung together a ninth-inning rally, with Bell's single plating the tying run to send the game into an extra frame. Bell has gone deep in three of his past four contests and is batting .467 (7-for-15) with three homers, five RBI and four runs over that span.

Marlins' Roddery Munoz: Hit hard by Orioles
Munoz allowed six runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three batters over five innings in a no-decision against Baltimore on Thursday.
Munoz struggled to keep the ball in the park Thursday, as three of the six hits against him were homers. He departed with a 6-0 deficit but managed to escape with a no-decision thanks to a late Miami rally. The right-hander entered the contest having not allowed a long ball in three straight outings, though home runs have been an issue for him most of the campaign -- he's yielded multiple homers in six of his 12 outings overall. Munoz has managed to stick in the rotation despite a 5.61 ERA, as Miami doesn't have many other options due to a slew of injuries to its starting staff.

Marlins' Deyvison De Los Santos: Sent to Miami
De Los Santos was traded from the Diamondbacks to the Marlins along with Andrew Pintar in exchange for A.J. Puk on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
De Los Santos has always had plenty of raw power, and he's translated that to game action this season by posting a .324 ISO with Double-A Amarillo before being promoted to Triple-A Reno. He has 28 total home runs across 87 games between the two levels and could provide some needed thump to the middle of the Marlins order in the near future. For the time being, De Los Santos will likely report to Triple-A Jacksonville.

Marlins' Andrew Pintar: Dealt to Marlins
The Marlins acquired Pintar and Deyvison De Los Santos from the Diamondbacks on Thursday in exchange for A.J. Puk, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Pintar has split his 2024 campaign between High-A Hillsboro and Double-A Amarillo. He's shown a decent blend of power and speed by tallying nine home runs and 18 stolen bases in 67 total games. Pintar is likely to report to Double-A Pensacola with his new organization.
