Summary
Max Meyer just delivered a career-defining performance, outdueling reigning Cy Young winner Paul Skenes in a four-two Marlins victory. Meyer tossed a gem, allowing just one run, and lowered his season ERA to 2.75—joining elite company with over 95 strikeouts. He also shattered the Marlins’ record with his 15th straight start without a loss, including seven wins, against one of baseball’s top young arms. This marks a massive leap from his 4.73 ERA last season and his first full season as a starter. Signed to a modest one-year deal worth $980K, Meyer is now making a serious All-Star case and could be looking at a big contract this offseason. Skenes, while strong (10 Ks in 6 innings), fell victim to two solo homers by Heriberto Hernández and Joe Mash. Both teams sit at 36-36, just 1.5 games out of a wild card spot—this season’s race is far from over. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
