Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Miami Marlins.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.
Last year, the Marlins continued their losing ways as a small market team and sold off assets before they became high-priced. Nevertheless, there was one new entrant based on the 2024 campaign, and of course, that player is no longer in Miami.
As always, we present our top five, which had no changes.
3. Josh Johnson
You can find the entire list here.
Staring Pitcher Sandy Alcantara remains at #7.
Jazz Chisholm, who is now a New York Yankee, went up nine spots to #31.
Pitcher Tanner Scott enters at #39.
Luis Arraez, who was traded early in the year, went up two spots to #43.
Jesus Luzardo comes in at #49.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. We have a new one to unveil today, that of the Miami Marlins.
Along with the Colorado Rockies, the Florida Marlins came into existence in 1993, although they have been far more successful than their expansion counterparts.
The Marlins won the Pennant in only their fourth year of existence, but surely, they could not beat the New York Yankees for the World Series! Florida did precisely that, shocking the world, and then they surprised everyone by conducting a fire sale, dismantling the team, and starting from scratch.
Florida again built a good team in 2003 and once again befuddled the baseball world by winning their second World Series. True to form, they repeated what they did after 1997 by cost-cutting and getting rid of the parts that won it for them.
Since that time, the Marlins changed their team name to the Miami Marlins but have remained to operate as a small market team.
Our Top 50 lists in Baseball look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Remember, this is ONLY based on what a player does on that particular team and not what he accomplished elsewhere and also note that we have placed an increased importance on the first two categories.
This list is updated up until the end of the 2021 Season.
The complete list can be found here, but as always, we announce our top five in this article. They are:

Drafted in the 2nd Round of the 2007 Amateur Draft, Giancarlo Stanton would move quickly through the Marlins organization, debuting at age 20 for the parent club in 2010.
Stanton immediately showed off his power game, smacking 22 Home Runs as a rookie in 396 Plate Appearances, and two years later, he won his first Slugging Title (.608) with a trip to his first All-Star Game. After a sub-par by his standard 2013, Stanton roared back, winning the Home Run (37) and Slugging Title (.555) and was second for the MVP.
Stanton missed many games due to injuries in both 2015 and 2016 but responded with the year of his life and what is to date the best season ever by a Marlin. He led the NL in Home Runs (59), RBIs (132), Slugging Percentage (.631), and he ran away with the MVP.
As would be the case with the Marlins (which you will see often as you look down this list), the team looked to distance themselves from his growing contract, and to no surprise, the Yankees would be his landing spot. As of this writing, Stanton is the all-time franchise leader in Home Runs (267), RBIs (672), and bWAR (35.7).
