Major League Baseball now has a new type of Ironman. Jeff Conine, the retired 17-year veteran nicknamed "Mr. Marlin," became the first player -- past or present -- in the Major Leagues to complete the Ford Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
Marlins prospect John Raynor hit for the cycle and drove in three runs Friday as Mesa rolled to a 9-5 victory over Surprise in Arizona Fall League action.
Jeff Conine will compete in the Ford Ironman World Championship in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii on Saturday to raise money for a Florida hospital bone marrow program.
All the fanfare and festivities that went with the closing of Shea Stadium in New York recently struck home in many ways for Marlins president David Samson.
Who will the Marlins bring back from the 2008 roster next season? What free agents will the Marlins try to sign during the offseason? Is Cameron Maybin ready to play center field? Marlins beat reporter Joe Frisaro answers these questions and more in the latest mailbag.
After signing a two-year contract on Friday, veteran infielder Wes Helms will continue to provide leadership to a young Marlins team.
When Wes Helms rejoined the Marlins in early April, the veteran infielder made it clear he had a comfort level in Florida.
After powering their way to 84 wins this past season, the Marlins plan to put more of a priority on pitching and defense moving forward.
After dealing with discomfort for most of the season, catcher Matt Treanor underwent surgery on Wednesday to repair three muscle tears in his left hip.
On Wednesday, the Marlins outrighted relievers Doug Waechter, Lee Gardner and Henry Owens and outfielder Alejandro De Aza to Triple-A Albuquerque.
After missing the entire 2008 season due to elbow troubles that required Tommy John reconstruction surgery, right-hander Sergio Mitre was released by the Marlins on Monday.
For all the ups and downs the Marlins went through in a bittersweet season, this surprising club can take pride in the fact that it controlled its own destiny until the final week of the season.
Back-to-back home runs by Wes Helms and Dan Uggla in the eighth inning lifted the Marlins to a 4-2 win in front of 56,059 at Shea Stadium who witnessed the Mets' playoff hopes vanish.
A sore left shoulder kept All-Star shortstop Hanley Ramirez out of the Marlins' starting lineup in the season finale against the Mets on Sunday at Shea Stadium. For the second straight season, Ramirez finished with better than a .300 batting average. He hit .332 in 2007, and his career average is .308.
As a team, the Marlins entered Sunday's finale with the Mets at Shea Stadium with 206 homers, which tops the previous standard of 201 set a year ago. This actually is the third straight season Florida set a new home run standard.
Facing the Mets' Johan Santana on Saturday, Marlins right-hander Ricky Nolasco came up on the losing end, but he still managed to take away a valuable lesson from the veteran: to always be up for a challenge.
With 195 2/3 innings already logged, Scott Olsen is 4 1/3 innings shy of reaching the 200 mark for the first time in his career. For every starting pitcher, topping 200 innings is a preseason objective, and Olsen can go for it in the final game of the season.
Ricky Nolasco finished up his season with his 12th straight quality start, but it wasn't enough as, behind Santana, the Mets claimed a 2-0 victory in front of 54,920 at Shea Stadium.
Shortstop Hanley Ramirez enjoyed one of his more dominating all-around performances in Friday night's win over the Mets. Along with going 4-for-5 while scoring three runs, the All-Star shortstop was involved in all three double plays, including the one that ended the game.
After the Marlins face the Mets in the afternoon, about 20 players will be dressed in various costumes heading back from Flushing to Manhattan on the famed 7 train. The reason? Traditional rookie razing.
When the season opened, Ricky Nolasco was pitching out of the bullpen. On Saturday, the 25-year-old right-hander will take the mound for the final time this season with the distinction of the team's ace.
Hanley Ramirez had four hits, three runs scored and two stolen bases, while Josh Willingham homered to lift the Marlins to a 6-1 win over the Mets at Shea Stadium on Friday night, when rookie Chris Volstad showed why his future is so bright.
On Friday afternoon, manager Fredi Gonzalez announced the entire staff will be back in 2009. Three coaches already were signed to two-year deals: Carlos Tosca (bench), Jim Presley (hitting) and Mark Wiley (pitching). They signed through 2009 after last year.
Bidding farewell to Shea Stadium will be a sentimental time for Marlins first baseman Mike Jacobs. The left-handed-hitting first baseman was picked in the 38th round of the 1999 First-Year Player Draft by the Mets. Jacobs made his big league debut in grand fashion on Aug. 21, 2005, with New York.
