Marlins' Graham Pauley: Back with Miami
Rotowire
The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.
Pauley will return to the big-league club after spending a couple of weeks in Triple-A. In the majors this season, the 25-year-old has slashed .176/.219/.297 with one homer and 11 RBI. To make room for Pauley on the roster, Miami optioned Rece Hinds to Jacksonville.
Meyer took a no-decision Saturday against Milwaukee, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks in three innings. He struck out five.
Meyer labored Saturday, needing 74 pitches to complete three frames in his shortest outing of the campaign. The Marlins opted to give the 27-year-old extra rest ahead of the All-Star break and skip his final turn through the rotation of the first half, and Meyer showed signs of rust in the aftermath. The right-hander should revert to more typical rest ahead of his next appearance against the Padres, still holding a strong 2.68 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 121:41 K:BB over a career-high 111 innings.
Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said after Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Brewers that Lopez will get his right ring finger tested after a ground ball "got the nail pretty good," Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Lopez took a ground ball to his right ring finger in the second inning of Saturday's game. He was able to stay in the contest, but he'll undergo more tests to determine the severity of the injury. Leo Jimenez and Javier Sanoja could see some reps at shortstop if Lopez were to miss time.
Conine went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-1 extra-inning loss to the Brewers.
The second-generation player took Logan Henderson deep in the fifth inning for the Marlins' only offense on the night. Conine has been productive in a strong-side platoon role since he came off the IL in late June, and over his last 61 plate appearances he's produced a .308/.410/.596 slash line with four of his six homers on the season and nine of his 13 RBI.

Marlins' Sandy Alcantara: Fans seven in Friday's no-decision
Rotowire
Alcantara didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 2-1 extra-inning loss to the Brewers, allowing one run on three hits and four walks over six innings. He struck out seven.
The veteran right-hander produced his third straight quality start in July and MLB-leading 15th of the season on 104 pitches (60 strikes), but he left the mound with the score tied 1-1. Over 21 innings this month, Alcantara has delivered a 2.14 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB, and with the Marlins firmly in playoff contention, the odds of him being dealt at the trade deadline are dwindling. Alcantara will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is set to come on the road next week in Houston.
Henriquez (elbow) began playing catch from 60 feet out Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Henriquez has already been ruled out for the entirety of the 2026 campaign after undergoing UCL reconstruction surgery in the offseason, but the fact that he's now playing catch is an encouraging sign of progress. Assuming his rehab continues smoothly, he should be ready for the start of spring training in 2027.

Marlins' Anthony Bender: Resumes throwing
Rotowire
Bender (shin) was cleared to begin a throwing program Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Bender has been on the shelf since the end of June due to a stress reaction in his right shin. He remains without a definitive timeline to return to Miami's bullpen, though his return to activity is certainly a positive sign.
