2022 Marlins Season Review: Sandy Alcantara

Related Topics: Sandy Alcántara

There were not many consistent pieces on this 2022 Miami Marlins team. Injuries, questionable coaching decisions, and cold lineups plagued the Marlins throughout the year. But there was one thing fans could count on: every five days, Sandy Alcantara was going to throw a gem.

Alcantara’s 2.28 ERA was the lowest for a qualified Marlins starting pitcher in a single season since Josh Johnson’s 2.30 ERA in 2010. He is now only behind Kevin Brown (1996, 1.89) and José Fernández (2013, 2.19).

Not only was Alcantara effective, but he was able to do it over a large sample size that is rarely seen in the current era of baseball.
