The A’s head to South Beach riding momentum, but this is no time to get cocky—because Kyle Stowers and the Marlins are lurking with upset energy. In this crossover episode, we team up with Locked On Marlins host Jeremiah Geiger to break down why this series is anything but a layup. The Marlins may not have the flashiest record, but with sneaky power, young arms, and a chip on their shoulder, they’re exactly the kind of team that can steal a series if you’re not locked in. And Stowers? He’s quietly cooking, and if the A's let him get comfortable, he could be a serious problem. 

We dig into key matchups, bullpen edges, and which bats need to step up for the A’s to handle business. Is this a trap series? Absolutely—and the A’s better treat it like playoff prep, not a beach trip. Jeremiah gives us the inside scoop on how Miami’s retooling effort is progressing, why the Marlins aren't pushovers, and how Stowers might be playing his way into a long-term role. It’s a must-listen for any fan thinking this weekend will be easy—because overlooking Miami could be the A's first big mistake.
