Owen Caissie - Still sitting Tuesday Caissie (triceps) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Impact Manager Clayton McCullough said after Sunday's win over the Nationals that Caissie was likely to be available for Tuesday's series opener, but the outfielder will instead sit out a second consecutive game. The 23-year-old is dealing with left triceps discomfort and should continue to be considered day-to-day.

Robby Snelling - Second start coming Thursday Snelling is slated to start Thursday's game against the Twins at Target Field.

Impact With the Marlins cutting Chris Paddack last week, Snelling appears to be in line for extended audition in the Miami rotation, despite turning in an uneven MLB debut this past Friday. Snelling took a loss to the Nationals in his first start, covering five innings and striking out two batters while yielding three earned runs on five hits and four walks. On a more encouraging note, Snelling induced 12 swings and misses among his 86 pitches, illustrating the strikeout upside he brings to the table. Prior to receiving his promotion to the big leagues, Snelling generated 44 punchouts over 29 innings at Triple-A Jacksonville this season.

2026 MLB Power Rankings: Who is Each Team’s Early Season Standout Starter?

Christopher Morel - Makes impact in Sunday's win Morel went 1-for-4 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Nationals.

Impact Getting the start at DH and batting sixth, Morel produced his first RBI and first steal as a member of the Marlins. The 26-year-old was signed this offseason to potentially fill a hole at first base, a position he'd never played before in the majors, but an oblique strain in late March delayed the implementation of that plan. In nine games since being activated from the IL, Morel has appeared four times at first base and four times at DH, batting .179 (5-for-28) with a 2:11 BB:K.

Stephen Jones - Outrighted to Triple-A The Marlins outrighted Jones to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

Impact Jones was booted off the Marlins' 40-man roster last week before making an appearance for the big club. He has passed through waivers unclaimed and will now rejoin the bullpen at Jacksonville.

Owen Caissie - Should be ready to play Tuesday Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said after Sunday's 5-2 win over the Nationals that Caissie (triceps) will likely be available following Monday's team off day, Christina De Nico...

Impact Caissie was scratched from the starting nine ahead of Sunday's contest due to left triceps discomfort, but his removal from the lineup appears to have been mostly as a matter of precaution. Miami added Heriberto Hernandez to the starting nine in Caissie's stead, and he went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Sunday's victory.

Pete Fairbanks - Expected to be activated Wednesday Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said that he expects Fairbanks (hand) to return from the 15-day injured list Wednesday when first eligible, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com report...

Impact After checking out fine after throwing a live batting practice session Saturday, Fairbanks has been cleared to join the Marlins for the start of their six-game road trip and should be ready to go for the second game of the club's series in Minnesota. Before hitting the shelf April 28 after experiencing nerve irritation in his right hand, Fairbanks had notched five saves in six chances but had posted a 10.00 ERA and 1.44 WHIP in nine innings over 10 appearances. Fairbanks' underlying numbers (3.48 xERA, 22.0 K-BB%) were more encouraging, however, and he should immediately step back in as Miami's preferred closing option after none of the Marlins' other relievers have seized control of the ninth inning while he's been on the shelf.

Jakob Marsee - Swipes two bags Sunday Marsee went 1-for-2 with a walk, one run scored and two stolen bases in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Nationals. He was also hit by a pitch.

Impact Marsee came up big late, swiping two bags and scoring a run during the Marlins' three-run bottom of the eighth inning. The 24-year-old has struggled to get going this season, but he's flashed his potential this weekend with a homer and two stolen bases over his past two contests. On the year, he's slashing .182/.307/.277 with two home runs, 13 RBI, 22 runs scored and 12 steals across 177 plate appearances.

Christopher Morel's go-ahead single lifts Marlins past Nationals 5-2

Sandy Alcantara - Logs quality start in no-decision Alcantara did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Nationals, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks with three strikeouts over six innings.

Impact Alcantara allowed runs in the fourth and fifth innings, throwing 58 of 89 pitches for strikes while generating 10 whiffs. It marked the sixth quality start of the season for the 30-year-old, who bounced back nicely from a seven-run outing Thursday. He's been mostly strong this year, holding opponents to three earned runs or fewer in seven of nine starts while posting a 3.90 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 39:20 K:BB across 57.2 innings. He lines up for a road matchup against the Rays next weekend.

Josh Ekness - Earns first career save Sunday Ekness retired the only batter he faced to earn a one-out save in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Nationals.

Impact The Marlins have been playing matchups in the ninth inning during Pete Fairbanks' (hand) absence, and Sunday was Ekness' turn. He entered to face righty Curtis Mead with two outs and a runner on first base and earned his first career save on just three pitches. The 24-year-old made his major-league debut May 3, and he's now held opponents scoreless in three of four appearances while posting a 2:1 K:BB across 3.1 innings with Miami.

Owen Caissie - Scratched with triceps injury The Marlins scratched Caissie from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals due to left triceps discomfort, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Heriberto Hernandez will enter the Marlins' starting nine as a replacement for Caissie, batting seventh while occupying left field. Though Miami has mostly shielded him from southpaws this season, the left-handed-hitting Caissie has struggled to a .198/.254/.317 slash line while striking out at a 41.2 percent clip over 114 plate appearances.

Connor Norby - Idle Sunday Norby is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Norby will rest Sunday following a stretch of five consecutive starts in which he went 3-for-14 with one double, three walks, two stolen bases, four runs and one RBI. Though he's seen all but one of his 35 starts at either first base or designated hitter, Norby could end up receiving more run at third base moving forward after Miami demoted Graham Pauley to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.
