• Here is an incredibly thorough summary of every 2021 Marlins draftee from Spencer Morris.
• Eric Longenhagen of FanGraphs draws a comp between fourth-rounder Tanner Allen and Corey Dickerson (to be clear, that’d be a terrific outcome for Allen’s professional career).
• Baseball America’s JJ Cooper likes 20th-rounder Zach Zubia as a sleeper pick.
• BA’s way-too-early 2022 mock draft has the Marlins selecting University of Arizona catcher Daniel Susac with the seventh overall pick.
• Louis Addeo-Weiss is tempted to trade Garrett Cooper at the deadline.
• A new season of The Clubhouse is here! The 2020 debut was a series of sit-down interview with Miguel Rojas and his teammates, though they’re tweaking the format this time around.

• On this day in 1996, the Marlins used a record-setting hit parade to rout the Astros.
• Long overdue: Marlins legend Rich Waltz has a new opportunity doing play-by-play for a major league team. He’ll be the secondary broadcaster for the Angels on Bally Sports West beginning this Friday (Matt Vasgersian has the No. 1 seat). Waltz was inexplicably fired by FOX Sports Florida after the 2017 season and has been covering a variety of sports on national outlets since then.
