The Marlins optioned Pauley to Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Pauley appeared in four games after being recalled July 19, during which he went 3-for-9 with an RBI and two strikeouts. He'll now return to the minor leagues in order to make room on the active roster for Owen Caissie (calf), who returned from the injured list Saturday. With a .529 OPS through 106 MLB plate appearances this year, Pauley is unlikely to be a significant contributor for the Marlins if he makes it back to the big leagues.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Back on bench with lefty starting
Rotowire
Pauley is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.
The Marlins will send Pauley and two other left-handed batters (Griffin Conine and Owen Caissie) to the bench while lefty Sean Sullivan toes the rubber for Colorado in the series opener. After being called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Pauley started at third base in two of the Marlins' three matchups with right-handed pitchers in St. Louis over the weekend, going 2-for-6 with two doubles, two RBI and one run. He could occupy the strong side of a loose platoon at the hot corner with Javier Sanoja, who will occupy the position Monday.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Makes impact in return to majors
Rotowire
Pauley went 1-for-4 with a double, a run scored and an RBI in Friday's win over the Cardinals.
Called back up from Triple-A Jacksonville earlier in the day, Pauley was immediately inserted into the starting nine at third base and hit ninth in the order. Prior to his promotion, the 25-year-old had a .259/.343/.500 slash line over his last 16 games for the Jumbo Shrimp with two homers and three steals, and Pauley has a clear path to claiming the full-time job at the hot corner with Connor Norby demoted to Triple-A and Javier Sanoja better suited for a utility role.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Recalled from Triple-A
Rotowire
The Marlins recalled Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.
Pauley sports just a .165/.211/.271 batting line across 33 games during his time with the Marlins this season. Miami has received very little offensively from third base, so Pauley could get another chance there, but there's no guarantee he'll play regularly.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Sent down to minors
Rotowire
The Marlins optioned Pauley to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.
Pauley has slashed a lowly .173/.225/.293 with a pathetic 17.5 percent hard-hit rate this season, which wasn't enough to keep a regular role despite solid defense. With Pauley in the minors, Connor Norby should see more reps at third base for the Marlins.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Clubs first homer in loss
Rotowire
Pauley went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 6-3 loss against the Giants.
Pauley connected on his first homer of 2026, clubbing a Landen Roupp curveball over the right-field wall in the second inning to give the Marlins a 3-0 advantage, though they wouldn't score again and ultimately relinquished the lead. Pauley's .621 OPS through 64 plate appearances isn't much to write home about, though he's currently riding a four-game hitting streak and should continue to see sizable playing time at the hot corner against right-handed pitching.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Sitting against righty
Rotowire
Pauley is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.
The left-handed-hitting Pauley often sits versus southpaws, but he'll be heading to the bench Wednesday while right-hander Kyle Leahy starts for the Cardinals. Though Javier Sanoja will fill in at third base in the series finale, Pauley could face a greater threat from Connor Norby for reps at the hot corner once Christopher Morel (oblique) returns from the injured list. Morel had been in line to serve as the Marlins' primary first baseman before straining his oblique prior to Opening Day, but Norby has been handling those duties through the first four weeks of the season and has produced a .738 OPS. Pauley, meanwhile, has struggled to a .492 OPS and has struck out at a 27.3 percent clip over 55 plate appearances.

Rotowire

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Sitting out Saturday
Rotowire
Pauley (oblique) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers.
Oblique discomfort forced Pauley to make an early exit Friday and will officially keep him out of Saturday's contest as well. However, he said he was feeling better before the game and has taken swings, per Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, so he may be able to avoid a trip to the injured list. In the meantime, Javier Sanoja will start at the hot corner for Miami.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Exits early Friday
Rotowire
Pauley was removed from Friday's game against the Brewers with oblique discomfort, Craig Mish of FanDuel Sports Network Florida reports.
Pauley took a pitch high and tight in the seventh inning, and although it didn't hit him, he tweaked his oblique while moving out of the way of the ball. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but if Pauley ends up having to miss time, Javier Sanoja would be an option to start at third base for Miami.

Marlins' Graham Pauley: Idle against lefty again
Rotowire
Pauley is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.
The Marlins are facing off against a third straight left-handed starting pitcher (Brandon Williamson), so the left-handed-hitting Pauley will once again cede third base to Javier Sanoja. Despite being out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Yankees, Pauley was able to come up big off the bench, delivering a two-run double in the eighth inning to give the Marlins the lead in their eventual 7-6 win.
