Injury Report

2 entries
  • Apr 29, 2026·Issue #011·IL-15

    Officially placed on the 15-day IL with nerve irritation in his thumb (his Raynaud's history is a factor). The Marlins will go to a committee — Justin Mason flagged Tyler Phillips as the primary save candidate after his last save, with Calvin Faucher and Anthony Bender mixed in. No firm timeline.

  • Apr 28, 2026·Issue #010·DTD

    NEW: Left Monday's game against the Dodgers after recording just 1 out, walking 2 and allowing a Shohei Ohtani ground-rule double. Reported numbness in his hand — concerning given his Raynaud's Syndrome diagnosis. If he hits the IL, the Marlins would go to a committee of Calvin Faucher, Anthony Bender, and Tyler Phillips.

Stash of the Week

1 entry
  • May 11, 2026·Issue #023·38% owned

    Fairbanks is activated from the IL on Tuesday and per FanGraphs Roto Riteup, 'should resume closing duties this week.' The Marlins ran a committee in his absence (Faucher-Cabrera-Bender) and converted only 60% of save chances, so Fairbanks's role is fully secure on return. He carried a 1.45 ERA at the time of injury with 13 K vs. 1 BB. Top-15 RP rest of season — claim in any league he's still floating before tonight's lineup card hits.

    Three straight outings with a run allowed. Michael Peterson (2.25 ERA, 0.81 WHIP, 23 K in last 16 IP) is clearly the next in line. Trade Fairbanks while you still can get value — the role is actively eroding.

  • Jul 9, 2026·Issue #081·watch

    Fairbanks has allowed a run or more in three straight outings. With Anthony Bender on the IL, Michael Peterson (2.25 ERA, 0.81 WHIP, 23 K in last 16 IP) is next in line. The role could change any day.

  • Jul 8, 2026·Issue #080·watch

    7.27 ERA over his last four appearances with at least one run allowed in each outing. Michael Petersen (3.08 ERA, 14 holds, 10.9 K/9) is a credible replacement and has been functioning as the primary setup man for over a month. This closer situation could flip any day — monitor before rostering.

  • May 12, 2026·Issue #024·locked

    Activated Tuesday and reclaims the closer role per Marlins manager. Faucher / Cabrera / Bender committee converted only 60% of save chances in his absence. Fairbanks was at 1.45 ERA pre-injury with 13 K / 1 BB. Top-15 RP rest of season — claim before tonight's lineup card.

  • May 11, 2026·Issue #023·locked

    Activated Tuesday and resumes the closer role per Roberts. Marlins ran a committee in his absence and only converted 60% of save chances — Fairbanks is fully secure on return. 1.45 ERA pre-injury with 13 K/1 BB. Top-15 RP rest of season.

  • Apr 28, 2026·Issue #010·watch
