Adam Mazur Debuts for Marlins in Phillies Loss

Adam Mazur made his Miami Marlins debut on Wednesday, replacing the injured Max Meyer in the rotation after being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville. Mazur, acquired in a six-player trade with the Padres last summer, held the Philadelphia Phillies scoreless for three innings before surrendering a three-run homer in the fourth, finishing with four runs allowed on five hits and four walks over 5.2 innings in a 4-2 Marlins loss. He struck out five batters and demonstrated enough potential that he may stay in the rotation while Meyer recovers. Mazur had posted a 3.62 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 59.2 Triple-A innings this season, a marked improvement over his struggles with the Padres in 2024. Both Mazur and Marlins coaches were optimistic about his composure and resilience during his first start. His role in the rotation moving forward will depend on his ongoing performance and Meyer's recovery.
