"All in all, you can't call the 2025 Miami Marlins anything less than a roaring success. The 2024 model of the Marlins went 62-100, and then proceeded to deal away their most productive offensive player in the offseason. To finish seventeen games better at 79-83 just a year later, and to do so without a ton of splashy free agent signings or promotions of generational prospects, is remarkable."
"The mood around this franchise has truly done a 180. Confidence exists. Hopes, if not high, at least exist. It's a feat all the more impressive given that the 2025 Marlins- as fun as they were to watch...was a losing team that missed the playoffs. And that it is that last issue that deserves some extra attention...because the 2025 Miami Marlins kinda should have made the playoffs."
The 2024 Miami Marlins finished 62-100 and traded away their most productive offensive player in the offseason. The team improved to 79-83 in 2025 without major free-agent signings or promoting generational prospects. Franchise mood shifted markedly, with increased confidence and renewed hope among fans and within the organization. Despite entertaining play, the 2025 Marlins remained a losing team and missed the playoffs. Many observers believe the club should have reached postseason contention and point to front office choices and late-game decisions, including bullpen usage, as factors that may have prevented a few additional wins.
