Sitting third straight Bride is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

Impact It's the third consecutive game on the bench for Bride, who has gone just 2-for-28 with five walks and 10 strikeouts through 33 plate appearances this season. The 29-year-old started seven of Miami's first eight contests, but the slow beginning to the campaign appears to have pushed him into a reserve role.

Exiting lineup Monday Bride is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

Impact Bride will head to the bench for the second time in three games after producing just two hits through his first 26 at-bats of the season. He'll cede his spot in the lineup to Eric Wagaman, who draws the start at first base while Matt Mervis gets a day out of the infield and serves as Miami's designated hitter.

Not starting Saturday Bride isn't in the Marlins' lineup for Saturday's matchup against Atlanta.

Impact Bride will begin on the bench for the second time in Miami's past three games. Prior to that stretch, he started in each of the team's first six contests. It's been a rough go for Bride so far, as he's gone just 2-for-26 at the plate with a 29 percent strikeout rate. Eric Wagaman is starting at DH on Saturday with Bride out of the lineup.

Getting first day off Bride is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

Myers gives Marlins their second walk-off win in 3 days with 5-4 victory in 12 innings

Dane Myers drove in Otto Lopez in the bottom of the 12th inning to give Miami a 5-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates for the Marlins’ second walk-off victory in three days

MARCH 30, 2025 • Associated Press

Swats first spring homer Bride went 2-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and two additional runs scored in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals.

Impact The 29-year-old took Sonny Gray deep in the third inning for his first long ball of the spring. Bride hasn't made much of a splash in camp, batting .182 (6-for-33) through 12 appearances, but his seven walks against only four strikeouts indicate he's been seeing the ball well. He should see regular at-bats this season while splitting time between first base and DH as he looks to build on last year's big second half.

Spring struggles continue Bride went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox.

Impact The 29-year-old is penciled into a starting workload for the Marlins, splitting the first base/DH workload with Matt Mervis, but Bride hasn't done much this spring to suggest he deserves the role. Through 11 appearances, he's batting just .138 (4-for-29) and is still looking for his first home run. Bride's 6:4 BB:K offers some reassurance he's just trying to get his timing down at the plate, and his strong finish to 2024 -- .282/.369/.485 after the All-Star break -- has earned him at least some trust from Miami.

MARCH 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Tenuous hold on starting job Bride will head into training camp at the top of the Marlins' depth chart at first base, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact However, the 29-year-old could face a serious challenge this spring from former Cub prospect Matt Mervis, who has significantly more power potential. Bride provided Miami with a solid bat after joining the big-league roster for good in late July last season, slashing .279/.365/.485 over 241 plate appearances with 11 homers in only 58 games, but his career track record suggests he could have a hard time matching that output over a full campaign. Bride and Mervis could also end up platooning at first base, with Bride on the short side, if rookie slugger Deyvison De Los Santos wins the DH job this spring.

He's added a solid .264/.349/.429 slash line, 32 RBI, 27 runs scored and eight doubles across 66 contests.

Out of Friday's lineup Bride is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Impact Bride had started every game for the Marlins since July 27 but will be given a breather for the series finale. Jake Burger will be at first base and Jesus Sanchez will slot in at designated hitter.

AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Launches three-run homer Bride went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in a loss to the Phillies on Wednesday.

Impact Bride helped Miami get off to a promising start with a three-run homer in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the fourth, but the team's pitching couldn't contain Philadelphia's offense. Bride continues to be a bright spot for the Marlins, as he's notched at least one hit in 15 of 19 games since the All-Star break and is batting .308 (20-for-69) with five home runs and 17 RBI during that span. That has put him on the fantasy map, especially because he's moved into an everyday role since Josh Bell was traded to Arizona.

AUGUST 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slugs third homer Bride went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Sunday's win against Atlanta.

Impact Bride has started the last eight games for Miami since being called up in late July, batting 7-for-29 (.241) with three home runs, seven RBI and three runs scored. Even with the hot streak, the 28-year-old has only managed a .241 average and an ugly 3:12 BB:K, making him hard to trust in a middling Marlins lineup.

AUGUST 4, 2024 • Associated Press

Pops second homer Bride went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Atlanta.

Impact Slotting in as the depleted Marlins' cleanup hitter for the third straight game, Bride went yard for the second time during that stretch and the second time this season as he took Spencer Schwellenbach deep in the first inning. Bride has gone 7-for-23 (.304) in seven games since being called back up from Triple-A in late July, but his 2:10 BB:K -- not to mention his career .204/.299/.264 slash line over 347 plate appearances in the majors -- makes it tough to trust that his current hot streak will last much longer.

AUGUST 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Home run, double in win Bride went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Rays.

Impact Bride got Miami on the board in the second inning with a solo shot off Taj Bradley, his first homer in 17 games this season. The 28-year-old Bride has started four straight games for the Marlins, alternating between first and third base, and he should be in line for a regular role following Josh Bell's trade to the Diamondbacks. Overall, Bride's slashing .268/.326/.390 across 46 plate appearances this year with seven RBI and three runs scored after batting just .170 with a .491 OPS in 40 games with Oakland last season.

Getting fourth straight start Bride will start at first base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Impact Bride will pick up his fourth straight start, but he'll move across the diamond Wednesday after he had played third base in each of the prior three contests. With the Marlins moving Josh Bell to Arizona on Tuesday and corner infielder Jake Burger perhaps being a candidate to see more at designated hitter moving forward, Bride could have a path to regular playing time if his bat warrants it. He's gotten on base at a .345 clip since being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on July 4 but hasn't produced an extra-base hit or stolen base over nine games.

JULY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Joins big-league roster The Marlins recalled Bride from Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bride will give the Marlins some protection along the infielder. The 28-year-old has two hits in 12 at-bats during his brief time in the majors this season.
