Welcome to Monday’s Marlins (47-55, -34 RD) vs. Reds (40-61, -91 RD) game thread. It's the final game before the MLB trade deadline for both teams, so pay attention closely for players being removed early or used in irregular roles.

It’s the opening game of a new series, which means we’ve got free prop bets and an hour-long livestream with the Fish Stripes staff and special guests.

Notes: Tommy Pham was scratched from the lineup mere minutes before first pitch. He’s been traded to the Red Sox, per multiple reports...Greene is coming off one of his longest MLB starts (6.1 IP) when these teams previously met in Cincinnati. He just had the misfortune of matching up against Pablo López that night and took the loss...Pham was looking like a logical trade candidate for much of the season, but he's slumping at the wrong time, including strikeouts in 11 consecutive games.

Marlins Game Notes

Marlins Starting Lineup (to be updated ASAP)

  1. 2B Joey Wendle (113 wRC+ this season, 101 wRC+ over last 30 days)
  2. SS Miguel Rojas (83, 72)
  3. 1B Lewin Díaz (90, 160)
  4. DH Avísail García
  5. CF JJ Bleday (67, 67)
  6. RF Bryan De La Cruz (76, 88)
  7. LF Jesús Sánchez (90, 83)
  8. 3B Charles Leblanc (177, 177)
  9. C Jacob Stallings (53, 46)

LHP Jesús Luzardo (102 ERA+ this season, career 81 ERA+)

Lineup Changes from Previous Game: García in, Jesús Aguilar out

Pregame Roster Moves: LHP Jesús Luzardo reinstated from 60-day injured list; RHP Aneurys Zabala selected from Triple-A Jacksonville; RHP Jordan Holloway transferred to 60-day IL; LHP Jake Fishman designated for assignment

Additional Notes: A forearm strain sidelined Luzardo for nearly half of the regular season. He has the highest strikeout rate (34.5 K%) of anybody who has started a game for the Marlins in 2022...Fishman did fine in his major league debut (3.1 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 0 K), but the 49-pitch workload would have prevented him from contributing during this series anyway. He joins Willians Astudillo and Jimmy Yacabonis is DFA limbo.
