Game Storylines
Marlins Eye Series Sweep at Home
The Miami Marlins are riding a four-game home winning streak and have taken the first two games of this series, including a 2–0 shutout on Saturday. Starter Edward Cabrera (4–5, 3.35 ERA) has been dominant at home, posting a 1.14 ERA over his last five starts at loanDepot Park. Miami has gone 11–4 since July 12, and their bullpen has delivered multiple shutout performances.

Yankees Reeling After Bullpen Collapse
The New York Yankees suffered a brutal 13–12 loss on Friday, blowing leads of 6–0, 9–4, and 12–10. Their newly acquired bullpen trio—Jake Bird, David Bednar, and Camilo Doval—imploded in their debuts. On Saturday, the offense managed just two hits, and now Luis Gil (season debut) takes the mound with a limited pitch count after rehab outings.

Pitching Matchup

  • Cabrera has a 2.11 ERA since May 25, with 5+ strikeouts in 14 of 18 starts.
  • Gil returns from injury and is expected to be on a short leash, maxing out around 75 pitches.
