The Marlins annually have one of the lowest payrolls in baseball, yet manage to be in contention every couple of years. Florida is one of the best franchises when it comes to growing young talent, they struggle however to keep these players when big paydays come around.
The Marlins and their young pitching staff find themselves right in the thick of the playoff hunt late in August. With only a few weeks remaining in the season, Florida needs to get on a roll in order to secure themselves a place in the post season. Currently the Marlins are 67-60 and sit in second place in the NL East division, 7.5 games behind the division leading Philadelphia Phillies. A division title is not the only route into the playoffs however for the Marlins. Florida is third in the NL Wild Card standings, 5.5 games behind the Colorado Rockies.
