Marlins News
The Miami Marlins took a gut punch as closer Pete Fairbanks exited the mound in the ninth inning during a critical save situation against the Arizona Diamondbacks, adding to an already grim day that saw All-Star starter Max Meyer shut down for the remainder of the 2026 season due to a neck strain. This setback comes at a time when the Marlins desperately needed a strong finish, yet they fell 8-7, giving the D-backs a chance to remain in playoff contention thanks to Corbin Carroll's dramatic walk-off home run. With a pitching staff that has struggled lately, allowing an average of 6.7 runs per game over the last week, the pressure mounts as Miami looks to regroup and find their footing in a tightly contested division.
