The Marlins continue to struggle this season as starters, like Edward Cabrera, are pulled early, leading to losses. Cabrera, who pitched 6.1 innings allowing just one run against the Phillies, was replaced before achieving a second out in the seventh. Manager Clayton McCullough chose to bring in Cade Gibson, a decision that tied the game. This pattern of reliance on a fatigued bullpen has plagued the team throughout the season, resulting in missed opportunities to secure wins.
"Cabrera had done a great job and liked (Cade) Gibson coming in there on (Max) Kepler...there's no alternate universe. Don't second-guess that decision. It just didn't end up working out."
Cabrera walked away with a no-decision, despite giving up just one run through 6.1 IP. His line? 6.1 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 5 K on just 82 pitches.
