Giancarlo Stanton Is Rightfully Wary Of The Marlins' Stink
Giancarlo Stanton is having a tremendous year. He leads the NL in WAR, and he's carried a plucky young Miami Marlins team that is without ace José Fernández to a .500 record and within range of a Wild Card spot. On a normal team, a season like this would leave a player like Stanton feeling enthused ...

Adeiny Hechavarria Momentarily Saves Game With Great Diving Grab
The Rockies beat the Marlins 5-4 on a walk-off single in the 13th inning Saturday and the only reason it wasn't an inning earlier is because of this play. With two outs and men on the corners, Justin Morneau hit a flare out into no man's land between second base and left-center field. Adeiny Hecha...

Giancarlo Stanton Can Put On One Hell Of A Show
If you watched a baseball game last night that wasn't between the Cardinals and the Marlins, you watched the wrong damn baseball game. That's because the game you watched didn't have Giancarlo Stanton in it, who turned the evening into his own personal highlight factory....

Dan Jennings Hit In Head By Screaming Line Drive
This is legitimately terrifying. Pirates shortstop Jordy Mercer hit a line drive right back at Marlins pitcher Dan Jennings and hit him square in the head. He immediately went down to the ground and then scrambled around on the mound before getting up, freezing, staring blankly into space, and the...

Blocking-The-Plate Rule Screws Marlins; Mike Redmond Starts Undressing
The Marlins got boned in a major way by the new and confusing rule that prohibits catchers blocking the plate. Although Zack Cozart was initially ruled out by home plate umpire Mike Winters, a lengthy umpire review eventually overturned the call and ruled him safe. Instead of a 1-0 Marlins lead he...

The Marlins' Nickname For Casey McGehee Is Just A Modified Boob Joke
Nobody really pays much attention to the Miami Marlins, so we are guessing that not nearly enough people are aware of infielder Casey McGehee's nickname: "Hits McGehee."...

Young Marlins Fan Returns For His Second Dance
We were all captivated (and slightly weirded out) by the Vine of that little Marlins fan who freaked the hell out when he got on camera. Tonight, the Marlins found him again, so yes, that rascal's a real dancing machine. ...

Young Marlins Fan Gets On Camera, Completely Loses His Mind
At a recent Marlins game, the camera panned through the stands and lingered on one small fan, putting him on the jumbotron. Fans often notice when this happens, and they get excited and wave at the camera and everyone has a nice time. This kid, though, took things to another level, creating the grea...

Marcell Ozuna Ends The Game With A Perfect Laser To Home Plate
This Marcell Ozuna highlight is from Friday night, but it's still awesome enough to post now....

This Giancarlo Stanton Home Run Is Just Absurd

José Fernández Says He Pitched Through Pain Before Injury
José Fernández met with the media last night, his surgically repaired arm in a heavy cast and hanging in a sling, and admitted to having pitched through elbow pain during his last two starts of the season, without alerting the Marlins to his discomfort...

José Fernández Is Hurt, And We Aren't Allowed To Love Anymore
José Fernández is 21 years old and unquestionably one of the most exciting players in baseball. I use "player" in place of "pitcher" with purpose, because it's not just Fernández's ability to mow down hitters that makes him so much fun to watch; it's the fact that he milks every ounce of fun he poss...

Giancarlo Stanton And His Power Are A Joy To Watch
There are few events in the MLB currently more enjoyable than Giancarlo Stanton hitting a home run. (No disrespect to Jose Abreu.) "Crushed" is an understatement when describing the balls Stanton hits....

Yasiel Puig Hits Monster Home Run, Follows With Wonderful Bat Flip
In the fourth inning tonight in Miami, Yasiel Puig blasted a towering three-run homer to left-center, giving the Dodgers a 6-2 lead and Bill Plaschke a fainting spell. You see, Yasiel flipped his bat after his swing, signifying one of two things, depending on how many feet you have in the grave. It ...
