Fish On First: A Miami Marlins podcast

Fresh off Sunday's season finale, it's time to hand out the hardware for the 2019 Fishys (5:25)! From "most disappointing" to "MVP," there were 11 award categories, voted on by the fans on FishStripes.com and Twitter. As covered in a new article, Marlins Park attendance perked up in the second year of the new rebuild (30:45), and it even compares favorably to 2017 figures when you focus on the paid, in-person turnout. Flawed as he may be, Don Mattingly remains in the manager's seat heading into 2020. The episode wraps up by identifying areas where he can improve (43:40).
