Marlins vs Cardinals: Meyer's Pitching Crucial

0:00It's April 22nd. From first pitch to the final out, this is MLB News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. The Miami-Marlins have hit a rough patch over the last 10 days. They came in at seven wins and five losses entering Comerica Park, but after a 5-3 win over the brewers on Sunday, they're now 3-and. Seven in that stretch. Second year manager Clayton McCullough is feeling the heat from the skid. It's the third straight series loss, and like the rest of the National League east, they're fading fast behind the Atlanta Braves. They did welcome back Kyle Stowers, which could give a boost. Next up is a three-game home set against the surprising St. Louis Cardinals who sit at 13-8, just a half-game behind the Cincinnati. Reds in the National League Central. Fans are frustrated with the injuries piling up, too. On the 10-day list, they've got first baseman Christopher Morrell, with the left oblique strain, outfielder Astory Ruiz, with a high-grade left oblique. Infielder Maximo Acosta, with a grade one left oblique,

Tonight at 6.40 pm, Eastern at Lone Depot Park, it's right-hander Max Meyer for the Marlins against St. Louis Ridey, Michael McGreevy. Myers and his fifth start with a 1-0 record and 4.12 ERA over 19.2 innings. McGreevy, a 25-year-old, is 1-1 with a sharp 2.49 ERA in his first four outings. This match-up could set the tone before their West Coast trip starting Friday against the Giants. Meyer needs a strong one to spark the bullpen early and get Miami rolling again.
