Podcast: Looking at Marlins’ rotation plans with Jesus Luzardo out, and what to make of offense

The Miami Marlins’ strength, at least for the time being, has started to thin.

Starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo is sidelined for at least the next two weeks with a left forearm strain. With several of their top options on the 40-man roster in the minor leagues hurt, Miami could be in a potential bind with its rotation over the short term.

How will they sort through it (spoiler: No Max Meyer... at least not yet)? Miami Herald Marlins beat writer Jordan McPherson and deputy sports editor Andre Fernandez discuss in the latest episode of Fish Bytes. Afterward, the two dive into the offense’s inconsistency, take a look ahead to the rest of the homestand and talk minor leagues.
