The Miami Marlins are the hottest team in baseball. Currently with an 18-5 record following a series win against the St. Louis Cardinals and find themselves with 44-40 record, just half a game out of the third and final Wild Card spot.
A major reason for the Marlins success has been the month Dominican right-handed pitcher Sandy Alcántara has had, with a 5-0 record and in his last start became the Marlins career strikeout king, surpassing Ricky Nolasco who previously held the record.
For the first time since 2023, the Marlins find themselves in a position where they can add to their roster instead of subtract from it.
The Fish begin a four-game set against the Colorado Rockies on Friday night.
