Wagaman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Blue Jays.
The infielder took Kevin Gausman deep in the third inning, giving Wagaman nine long balls on the season. He isn't getting consistent playing time, but Wagaman's taking advantage of his opportunities in August, slashing .250/.345/.583 over 55 plate appearances with half of his 12 hits (two triples and four homers) going for extra bases.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Goes yard again Monday
Rotowire
Wagaman went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Monday's loss to the Cardinals.
Getting the start at first base against Matthew Liberatore and batting sixth, Wagaman took the St. Louis southpaw deep in the fourth inning. Wagaman has hit safely in four straight games and homered in back-to-back contests, giving him eight long balls on the year in 417 plate appearances to go with a tepid .236/.285/.369 slash line, and the bulk of his playing time for the remainder of the season will likely come in a short-side platoon role.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Lifts seventh homer
Rotowire
Wagaman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during Sunday's 5-3 win over Boston.
Wagaman has seen his playing time trend downward as he continues to struggle at the plate. Sunday's contest marked his first multi-hit performance since July 2, a stretch in which he went 15-for-88 (.170) with a homer, two doubles and two triples. Wagaman has been in the starting nine in two of Miami's last five games, as Troy Johnston and Liam Hicks have been seeing some work at first base.
Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Losing starts to Troy Johnston
Rotowire
Wagaman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.
Wagaman is on the bench against a right-handed starter (Miles Mikolas) for the second day in a row and for the third time in the last four games. Dating back to the start of July, Wagaman has contributed a lowly .431 OPS in 20 games, and his poor stretch of production appears to have cost him his role as the Marlins' everyday first baseman. The right-handed-hitting Wagaman could have to settle for the short side of a platoon at first base with the lefty-hitting Troy Johnston, who will get a second straight start following his promotion from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Ends homer drought Tuesday
Rotowire
Wagaman went 1-for-4 with a walk, a two-run home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Phillies.
The 27-year-old took Jesus Luzardo deep in the second inning, ending a 20-game homerless drought for Wagaman in which he hit just .228 (18-for-79) with four doubles and 10 RBI. He's emerged as the Marlins' starting first baseman mostly by default, but Wagaman doesn't have the offensive upside typically associated with the position -- through 270 plate appearances on the season, he's slashing .245/.289/.369 with five home runs and 27 RBI. Deyvison De Los Santos (quadriceps) is on a rehab assignment and should return to action with Triple-A Jacksonville shortly, and he represents the biggest threat in the organization to Wagaman's starting gig.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Three hits in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Wagaman went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Padres.
It's his third three-hit performance in the last 12 games, a stretch in which Wagaman is slashing .340/.370/.460 with a homer, seven runs and seven RBI. The 27-year-old has emerged as an everyday player for the Marlins, seeing most of his action at first base right now with occasional forays into left field, but his overall fantasy impact remains minimal -- he has a .693 OPS on the season with four homers and one steal in 50 contests.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Homers, drives in three in loss
Rotowire
Wagaman went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Angels.
Wagaman's solo shot in the seventh inning got the Marlins on the board, and he added a two-run single in the eighth. While the comeback effort fell short, the 27-year-old continues to swing a fairly hot bat. He's hit safely in six of the last seven games, going 11-for-28 (.393) in that span. For the season, he's up to a .253/.302/.398 slash line with four homers, 15 RBI, 20 runs scored, one stolen base, 10 doubles and a triple across 179 plate appearances. Wagaman likely won't sustain his recent success at the plate, but Miami's offense doesn't have enough impact players to create a significant threat to his playing time.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Three-hit attack in rout
Rotowire
Wagaman went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 9-4 win over the Rays.
Wagaman logged three hits for the third time this season, also tallying multiple knocks for the seventh time in 2025. Through 45 at-bats in May, the infielder is hitting .222 with three doubles, one triple, four RBI and two runs scored. Wagaman has consistently hit in the heart of Miami's batting order this year, but the lack of talent around him should continue to restrict his overall fantasy potential.

Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Racks up three hits in loss
Rotowire
Wagaman went 3-for-4 in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Athletics.
Friday marked the second three-hit performance and sixth multi-hit effort of the campaign by Wagaman. The 27-year-old should in theory have some decent RBI upside while consistently handling a premium spot in Miami's batting order, but he has just one RBI over his last nine games. During this span, Wagaman is hitting .250 (9-for-36) with the aforementioned RBI, two doubles and six runs scored.
