Your Marlins are hurting, bro.

Bro, listen— the news from the Marlins camp just hit me like a cafecito after a long night, and not in a good way. My man Max Meyer, our All-Star right-hander, is out with a neck strain. And then they tell me Otto Lopez, our All-Star shortstop, has finger inflammation? Dale, what is going on with our boys, acere? We can't catch a break, it feels like.

This is a real gut punch for the squad, you know? Meyer was pitching lights out, giving us that fire we need on the mound. When you walk into LoanDepot Park, you wanna see our best out there, representing Hialeah, representing Kendall, representing *all* of Miami. And Lopez, the way he moves at short, it’s like poetry, bro. Now, we’re just hoping these aren't long-term things, because every game matters, especially with how tight the NL East is gonna be. This ain't no casual pick-up game at Amelia Earhart Park, this is the big leagues.

* **Max Meyer's Neck Strain:** He's on the 15-day injured list. We need him back healthy and strong.

* **Otto Lopez's Finger:** Inflammation for our shortstop. Hope it's a quick recovery.

* **Impact on the Fish:** Losing two key players at once? That's a test of our depth, no doubt.

Que bola, this is the kind of stuff that makes you wanna grab a croqueta and just think, "Why us?" But hey, that's Miami sports, bro. We ride the highs, we feel the lows, and we always, always say "next year" with a little bit of hope in our hearts. We just gotta keep supporting the team, because they're *our* team, no matter what.

Dale, that's how we do it in the 305.

Oye, my man Marcos and the crew are talking about this on the morning show, you gotta hear it live at mornings.live.
