Marsee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Nationals.
The center fielder took Jake Irvin deep in the fourth inning, his eighth homer of the season, while his sixth-inning steal was his 20th. Marsee has struggled to replicate his breakout 2025 campaign, but he's been marginally more productive the last couple months, batting .258 (31-for-120) since the beginning of July with a 20:23 BB:K, four homers, two steals, nine RBI and 21 runs in 41 contests.

Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Collects second save
Rotowire
Faucher worked a perfect ninth inning Saturday without striking out a batter to record his second save of the season in a 4-2 win over the Nationals.
Pete Fairbanks tossed 25 pitches Friday and likely wasn't available, so closing duties fell to Faucher and he got the job done. Faucher has a pristine 0.00 ERA in August, producing a 0.78 WHIP and 11:1 K:BB over 7.2 innings, but he had zero wins, saves or holds on the month coming into Saturday.

Marlins' Eury Perez: Nabs seventh win
Rotowire
Perez (7-9) picked up the win in Saturday's 4-2 victory over the Nationals, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out four.
The right-hander wasn't at his sharpest and needed 100 pitches (56 strikes) to get through the minimum five innings in order to qualify for a win, but Perez mostly avoided hard contact before handing things off to his bullpen. Over six starts since the All-Star break, Perez has put together a 2.25 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 33:15 K:BB in 36 innings, but he's issued multiple free passes in five straight outings. He'll look to tighten things up in his next start, which is set to come on the road next weekend in a rematch with Washington.
Marlins' Deyvison De Los Santos: Recalled from Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Marlins recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.
De Los Santos has spent the vast majority of the season at Jacksonville, where he owns a .283/.347/.496 slash line with 19 homers, 66 RBI, 49 runs and 18 steals through 401 plate appearances. He'll now rejoin the parent club to give the Marlins extra flexibility at first base while Kyle Stowers (hamstring) is on the injured list. Logan Driscoll was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Marlins' Logan Driscoll: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Driscoll to Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.
After selecting Driscoll to the active roster Friday, the Marlins will now send him back to Triple-A while keeping him on their 40-man roster. Deyvison De Los Santos was recalled from Jacksonville in a corresponding move.
Marlins' Pete Fairbanks: Credited with win after blown save
Rotowire
Fairbanks (4-4) came away with the win against the Nationals on Friday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk while striking out two batters in one inning.
Fairbanks was brought out for the ninth inning to protect the Marlins' 2-1 lead. He struck out the first two batters he faced, but after Jacob Young got on base and stole second, Fairbanks proceeded to give up an RBI single to Daylen Lile to tie the game up at 2-2. It was the fourth blown save chance of the season for Fairbanks, but he ended up being tagged with the win thanks to Javier Sanoja's walk-off RBI single in the bottom of the frame. Fairbanks has a 3.48 ERA and 0.97 WHIP across 10.1 innings since the All-Star break.

Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Logs two RBI as pinch hitter
Rotowire
Sanoja went 2-for-3 with two RBI and a run scored during the Marlins' 3-2 win over the Nationals on Friday.
Sanoja was left out of the Marlins' lineup for Friday's series opener, but he was brought in as a pinch hitter for Owen Caissie in the sixth. Sanoja struck out in that plate appearance, but he more than made up for it in his next two at-bats with consecutive RBI singles, the second of which was the game winner in the ninth inning. He's driven in at least one run in each of his last five outings, going 9-for-19 with two home runs and eight RBI in that span.

Marlins' Ryan Gusto: Throws four scoreless frames in no-decision
Rotowire
Gusto did not factor into Friday's decision against the Nationals, allowing five hits and one walk while striking out two across four scoreless innings.
Gusto allowed at least one baserunner in all four of the frames in which he pitched (including two in both the first and fourth innings), but he managed to keep the Nationals off the board. It was the first time this season that he kept his opponent scoreless while completing at least four frames, and he finished Friday's outing having tossed 62 pitches (48 strikes) while generating six whiffs. Gusto figures to stay in the Marlins' rotation until Max Meyer (neck) returns from the injured list, which may not be until early September. Gusto is lined up to face the Red Sox at home next week.
Marlins' Anthony Bender: Encounters setback during rehab
Rotowire
Bender's rehab assignment has been paused after he reported soreness in his right shin during his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Jacksonville, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Working his way back from a stress reaction in his shin, Bender pitched for Jacksonville on Tuesday in his first outing in nearly two months. He's returned to Miami to be examined, and the next steps for his rehab will be determined following that visit.

Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Exiting starting lineup
Rotowire
Sanoja is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Nationals.
Sanoja had started at third base in each of the last four games, but he will begin Friday's festivities on the bench. Leo Jimenez is covering the hot corner and will bat ninth for the Marlins.

Marlins' William Kempner: Moved to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Marlins transferred Kempner (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Friday.
The transaction clears space on the 40-man roster for the addition of Logan Driscoll. Kempner recently underwent UCL surgery on his right elbow and will be sidelined, at minimum, until late in the 2027 season.

Marlins' Logan Driscoll: Added to roster
Rotowire
The Marlins selected Driscoll's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Driscoll was acquired from the Rays in exchange for cash earlier this week, and he's now joining the big-league roster. The Marlins are already carrying three catchers on their active roster, so the corresponding roster move will likely involve another backstop. Driscoll has slashed .250/.343/.368 with three home runs in 43 games with Triple-A Durham this season.
Marlins' Tyler Phillips: Handles light workload in relief Tuesday
Rotowire
Phillips struck out three and allowed one earned run on two hits and two walks across two innings of relief in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Phillies.
After a stretch of 12 consecutive appearances as a starter, Phillips shifted to a relief role for the series in Philadelphia while the Marlins opted for a bullpen day when his turn in the rotation came up. Rather than leaning more heavily on Phillips as a bulk reliever behind opener Cade Gibson, manager Clayton McCullough opted to use five different bullpen arms to record the final 20 outs. Phillips' spot in the rotation will come up again Monday versus the Red Sox, but it's not clear whether he'll reclaim a traditional starting role for that game or continue to work out of the bullpen.
Sanoja went 3-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Phillies.
Sanoja was the only Marlin who seemed to have an answer for Aaron Nola on Wednesday -- the third baseman got Miami on the board in the sixth inning with his sixth homer of the season, one of his three hits on the day. Sanoja is now 7-for-16 (.438) with a pair of homers and six RBI in his last four contests, boosting his slash line to a solid .278/.317/.425 across 348 plate appearances this season with 48 RBI, 32 runs scored and six stolen bases.
