Fans eight in quality start Meyer (0-1) was handed the loss after allowing three runs on eight hits and two walks in six innings Friday against Atlanta. He struck out eight.

Impact Meyer kept Atlanta in check during his time on the mound, fanning eight and turning in a quality start before the Miami bullpen allowed seven runs. The third inning proved to be the most damaging for Meyer, who gave up a Marcell Ozuna two-run double and Austin Riley RBI single in the frame. The 2020 No. 3 overall pick has flashed some upside out of the gates, having yielded just four earned runs with 15 strikeouts over 11.2 frames, but Meyer would be tough to trust in mixed fantasy leagues in his next projected start on the road against the Mets.

Fans seven in no-decision Meyer did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 3-2 win over Pittsburgh, pitching 5.2 innings while allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and one walk. He struck out seven...

Impact The 26-year-old right-hander looked solid in his first outing of the season, tossing 93 pitches and generating 12 whiffs, falling one out short of a quality start. After averaging 94.1 mph on his fastball in 2024, Meyer found an extra gear in this appearance, posting a 95.6 mph average on the pitch. The former first-round pick produced a solid 3.21 ERA with 11:2 K:BB across 14 innings in the Grapefruit League and looks poised for a year that matches his draft pedigree. Meyer currently lines up to make his second start at Atlanta next weekend.

Locked into rotation spot Meyer threw a simulated game on a back field Thursday as the Marlins prepare him for a role in the Opening Day rotation, Chuck King of MLB.com reports. "Max has been terrific," man...

Impact The young right-hander came into camp simply trying to win a rotation job, but since then Braxton Garrett (elbow), Edward Cabrera (finger) and Ryan Weathers (forearm) have all broken down, potentially positioning Meyer to start the second game of the season for the Marlins on March 28 against the Pirates. Meyer, the third overall pick in the 2020 First-Year Player Draft, has yet to put things together in the majors, posting a 5.86 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 52:21 K:BB in 63 IP, but he's looked good this spring with an 8:2 K:BB and zero homers allowed in nine Grapefruit League innings.

Favorite for fifth starter job Meyer appears to be in the lead to win the fifth starter role to begin the season, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact There's no big surprise here, as the 25-year-old right-hander's main competition for the job, Valente Bellozo, lacks his pedigree or raw stuff. Meyer is being brought along carefully in camp after throwing 115 innings last season between Triple-A and the majors in his return from Tommy John surgery, and through three innings so far over two Grapefruit League appearances, he has yet to allow a run with a 2:1 K:BB.

Reaches 97.7 mph in spring debut Meyer topped out at 97.7 mph while completing a scoreless inning Wednesday against the Mets in his Grapefruit League debut, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Meyer issued a two-out walk in the frame but needed only 13 pitches to get out of things unscathed. The right-hander's four-seamer averaged 96.4 mph in the outing, which is up more than two mph from what he averaged with the pitch last season. Meyer attributed the velocity increase to "a big offseason in the weight room," Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports. He had an up-and-down 2024 season which featured a 5.68 ERA and ended prematurely due to a shoulder issue, but Meyer could have some untapped upside as part of the Marlins' rotation in 2025.

Working on expanding arsenal Meyer worked with new Marlins pitching coach Daniel Moskos this offseason on grips for a sinker and a sweeper, as well as refining his changeup, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com repo...

Impact "My slider is going to be more down in depth and my sweeper's going to come across the plate," Meyer said Friday before displaying his new arsenal in a live batting practice session. "I feel like with the movement, there's definitely a big separation between those two... My change is going to be a really good pitch, too, one of my best pitches. I feel like all my pitches are one of my best pitches right now. I just have crazy confidence in them that I haven't had a lot in the past going through the injury." Meyer has relied mainly on two pitches, his mid-90s fastball and nasty slider, dating back to his college days, and if even one of his other offerings can become a quality pitch, it would significantly improve his chances of not just sticking in the rotation, but reaching his sky-high ceiling as a starter.

Throws live batting practice Meyer (shoulder) threw live batting practice Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Meyer's 2024 season ended in early September due to right shoulder bursitis, but it appears he is entering camp this spring without any restrictions. Assuming good health, the young right-hander should have a leg up for one of the spots in the Marlins' rotation. Meyer posted a 5.68 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 46:19 K:BB through 57 innings in 2024.

Officially placed on IL The Marlins placed Meyer on the 15-day injured list Saturday with right shoulder bursitis, retroactive to Sept. 4.

Impact Meyer was originally slated to make his next start Sunday against Philadelphia. However, his move to the IL will keep him sidelined for multiple turns through the rotation, meaning the 25-year-old righty likely only has one or two starts left in the season, even in a best-case scenario. The Marlins have yet to name a replacement for Meyer in their starting rotation.

Headed to IL Meyer will be placed on the injured list Saturday, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Impact It's unclear what the injury is, but Meyer will no longer start Sunday against the Phillies. Even if his stay on the injured list is for the minimum term, Meyer will likely be able to make only one or two more starts this season.

Falls to Washington Meyer (3-5) took the loss Tuesday against the Nationals, allowing five runs on nine hits and a walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

Impact Four of the five runs charged to Meyer came via the home-run ball. The right-hander gave up a three-run blast to Joey Gallo in the fourth inning before Keibert Ruiz added a solo shot in the sixth. The long ball has been an issue for Meyer of late -- he's now given up seven in his last four outings (20.2 innings). Overall, the 25-year-old Meyer sports a 5.68 ERA through 57 innings this year with a 1.42 WHIP and 46:19 K:BB. He's currently slated for a tough home matchup with the Phillies this weekend in his next start.

SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hit with fourth loss Meyer (3-4) took the loss against Colorado on Wednesday, allowing five runs (four earned) on five hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out six.

Impact Meyer went 1-2-3 through the opening frame before allowing the leadoff man to reach in each of the next two innings, leading to two runs coming home for Colorado - though only one of those runs would be charged to him on account of a fielding error by Cristian Pache in the third. Meyer would also go on to surrender a solo homer in the fifth and was later relieved by Kent Emanuel in the sixth after failing to retire the first two batters. On a positive note, the 25-year-old did generate 18 whiffs in the contest while logging his second-highest strikeout total this month. However, Meyer has now lost four of his six starts in August, posting a 7.42 ERA over that stretch. He's also coughed up at least one homer in three straight outings.
