Marlins' Bullpen Struggles, Garrett's Call-Up
About this episode
The Miami Marlins bullpen, one of MLBs top units, faltered against the Giants after Max Meyers impressive start. Calvin Fauchers struggles, with a -0.075 WPA and 6.00 ERA, have been a weak link. Fans and analysts call for change, and with one minor league option left, sending him to Triple-A could help. Enter Braxton Garrett, crushing it in Triple-A with a 0.77 ERA, 0.51 WHIP, and 23 Ks in 23.1 innings. Ready to return, Miami might slide him into the bullpen first to steady the ship.

MLB Baseball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Marlins' Bullpen Struggles, Garrett's Call-Up. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
It's April 26th. This is MLB News today, driven by AI following the season in real time. The Miami-Marlins bullpen has been lights out this season, one of the top units in Major League Baseball heading into Sunday. But against the San Francisco Giants, things got messy after starter Max Meyer dominated with five shut-out innings and five strikeouts. He's the only Marlins pitcher yet to go six innings deep, but he set them up perfect. Then Calvin Fawcher came in and it all unraveled. He gave up two runs on two hits in a walk, no strikeouts, blowing the lead entirely. Fawcher's been the weakest link with a minus 0.75 win probability added, and a 6.00ERA this season in 20. 26. Miami needs to fix this quick if they want to hang in the National League east. Fans and analysts are calling for change, and Fawcher still has one minor league option left. Finding him the triple A could help him tweak his mechanics away from the big league spotlight. The impact's real though, dragging down an otherwise solid pin.
Inter Braxton Garrett, who's crushing it in triple A with a 0.77ERA over four starts, a 0.51WHIP and opponents, hitting just 0.056 against him. He's fan 23 and 23.1 innings, even tossing a no-hitter recently, hasn't pitched in the major since 2024, but he's ready. Miami might slide him into the bullpen first to ease back in, even though he's a starter by trade. Don't sleep on this swap, it could steady the ship and keep the Marlins rolling strong.
