Marlins' Jonah Bride: Getting breather Thursday
Rotowire
Bride is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game in Colorado.
Bride had started every game for the Marlins since July 27 but will be given a breather for the series finale. Jake Burger will be at first base and Jesus Sanchez will slot in at designated hitter.
Bride went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional RBI in a loss to the Phillies on Wednesday.
Bride helped Miami get off to a promising start with a three-run homer in the first inning and added a sacrifice fly in the fourth, but the team's pitching couldn't contain Philadelphia's offense. Bride continues to be a bright spot for the Marlins, as he's notched at least one hit in 15 of 19 games since the All-Star break and is batting .308 (20-for-69) with five home runs and 17 RBI during that span. That has put him on the fantasy map, especially because he's moved into an everyday role since Josh Bell was traded to Arizona.
Bride went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Sunday's win against Atlanta.
Bride has started the last eight games for Miami since being called up in late July, batting 7-for-29 (.241) with three home runs, seven RBI and three runs scored. Even with the hot streak, the 28-year-old has managed only a .241 average and an ugly 3:12 BB:K, making him hard to trust in a middling Marlins lineup.
Bride went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Atlanta.
Slotting in as the depleted Marlins' cleanup hitter for the third straight game, Bride went yard for the second time during that stretch and the second time this season as he took Spencer Schwellenbach deep in the first inning. Bride has gone 7-for-23 (.304) in seven games since being called back up from Triple-A in late July, but his 2:10 BB:K -- not to mention his career .204/.299/.264 slash line over 347 plate appearances in the majors -- makes it tough to trust that his current hot streak will last much longer.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Home run, double in win
Rotowire
Bride went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Rays.
Bride got Miami on the board in the second inning with a solo shot off Taj Bradley, his first homer in 17 games this season. The 28-year-old Bride has started four straight games for the Marlins, alternating between first and third base, and he should be in line for a regular role following Josh Bell's trade to the Diamondbacks. Overall, Bride's slashing .268/.326/.390 across 46 plate appearances this year with seven RBI and three runs scored after batting just .170 with a .491 OPS in 40 games with Oakland last season.
Bride will start at first base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's game against the Rays.
Bride will pick up his fourth straight start, but he'll move across the diamond Wednesday after he had played third base in each of the prior three contests. With the Marlins moving Josh Bell to Arizona on Tuesday and corner infielder Jake Burger perhaps being a candidate to see more time at designated hitter moving forward, Bride could have a path to regular playing time if his bat warrants it. He's gotten on base at a .345 clip since being recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville on July 4 but hasn't produced an extra-base hit or a stolen base over nine games.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Chance to make team
Rotowire
Bride could now make the Marlins' Opening Day roster following the trade of Jon Berti, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.
Bride was optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville earlier this month, but with an ability to handle multiple infield positions he makes for a natural replacement for Berti. However, the Marlins already have utility options Nick Gordon and Vidal Brujan on the roster, so they may not feel the need to add a third. The 28-year-old Bride was acquired from the Athletics in February.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Heads to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Bride to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
Bride logged 106 plate appearances in the majors with Oakland in 2023, but he'll likely have a tougher path to meaningful action in the big leagues with the Marlins, who acquired him in February. The 28-year-old should play on an everyday basis for Jacksonville to begin the 2024 campaign and will likely need one of the Marlins' corner infielders to fall victim to an injury before he receives an opportunity with the big club.

Marlins' Jonah Bride: Headed to Miami
Rotowire
The Marlins acquired Bride from the Athletics on Tuesday in exchange for cash, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Bride was designated for assignment Friday following the Athletics' acquisition of Ross Stripling, and he'll now look to carve out a role for himself with the Marlins. Bride owns just a .528 OPS across 293 plate appearances in his MLB career, though he slashed .305/.432/.544 in the minors last season. Jordan Groshans was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
