Miami is hoping to add starting pitching this winter and Yovani Gallardo could be an option. MLB.com's Joe Frisaro expects the Marlins to pursue Gallardo this offseason.

As the offseason begins, the Marlins have made it a goal to first find their next manager. The expectation is the club will hire someone with previous managerial experience.

Miami thrived throughout September and hopes to carry that momentum into 2016.

Adeiny Hechavarria remains a candidate to be named baseball's best defensive player.

The fences at Marlins Park will be moved in before the start of 2016. Multiple players have noted the gaps are too spacious.

Ichiro Suzuki will be back with the Marlins next season after being re-signed by the club.

There are multiple things we can learn from the 2015 campaign.
