Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Placed on injured list
The Miami Marlins placed Calvin Faucher on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right shoulder impingement.Faucher has been one of the most reliable members of Miami's bullpen this season, posting a 3.19 ERA and 1.40 WHIP through 53.2 innings while picking up six saves and 11 holds. Now that he's set to miss roughly two weeks, it's unclear who Miami will turn to in high-leverage situations, though Anthony Bender, John McMillon and Jesus Tinoco would seem to be the most likely candidates for ninth-inning work.

Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Secures fifth save
Calvin Faucher picked up the save over the Giants on Saturday, hurling a perfect ninth inning while striking out two.Faucher took the mound in the bottom of the ninth with a 4-3 lead and got Patrick Bailey to fly out to center on the first pitch before retiring the final two batters by way of strikeout. It marked the right-hander's fifth save of the campaign -- all of which came in August, and he's now recorded multiple strikeouts in two of his last three appearances.

Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Strikes out side for save
Calvin Faucher struck out three batters in a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Rockies.Faucher needed 18 pitches, but he got the job done cleanly after the Miami Marlins rallied ahead in the top of the ninth inning.

Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Rebounds with first save
Calvin Faucher allowed a hit and struck out two over a scoreless inning to earn the save in Saturday's 4-3 win over Atlanta.Faucher took a blown save and a loss after allowing three runs in an inning Friday, but he bounced back Saturday to collect his first save since 2022. Once again, Anthony Bender and Andrew Nardi pitched earlier in the game than Faucher. For the season, Faucher has a 3.46 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 46:21 K:BB over 41.2 innings while adding 11 holds. The 28-year-old right-hander's walk rate is not ideal for a high-leverage reliever, but it's likely a non-issue for a Miami Marlins team that isn't expected to produce many save chances the rest of the way.

Marlins' Calvin Faucher: Stumbles in high-leverage spot
Calvin Faucher (2-3) blew the save and took the loss Friday against Atlanta, getting tagged for three runs on three hits and two walks in the eighth inning. He struck out one.Manager Skip Schumaker continues to play it coy when it comes to the Miami Marlins' closer situation in the wake of the Tanner Scott trade. After rookie Valente Bellozo gave the team five innings as the starter, Anthony Bender worked the sixth, Andrew Nardi the seventh and then Faucher the eighth, leaving open the question of who would have gotten the ninth had Faucher not coughed up a 3-2 lead. The blown save was Faucher's third of the year against two successful conversions, and Friday's implosion was the first time he's been charged with multiple earned runs since June 17. The situation could be headed for a committee, but at least so far, Schumaker has been willing to deploy Nardi and Bender earlier in the game in key spots.

Calvin Faucher struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Wednesday during a 6-2 win over the Rays.It wasn't a save situation, but Faucher was still the pitcher manager Skip Schumaker called upon to protect Miami's first ninth-inning lead since Tanner Scott was traded to the Padres. Andrew Nardi, who was viewed as the most likely candidate to take over closing duties, pitched the sixth inning with a two-run lead, while Anthony Bender worked the eighth after the lead was extended to four runs. Faucher has pitched well enough to be in the high-leverage mix -- over his last 15 appearances, the right-hander has posted a 1.93 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 16:6 K:BB in 14 innings.
