Shuts down Phillies Alcantara (1-0) allowed two earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out five across 6.1 innings to earn the win Thursday against the Phillies.
Impact Alcantara allowed consecutive hits to begin the game -- which resulted in a run crossing the plate -- but he settled in from there to earn his first win of the season. Alcantara had the Philadelphia lineup guessing throughout his start, as he earned 19 swinging strikes across 95 total pitches. After walking five batters in his first start of the season, Alcantara also showed significantly improved control in his outing Thursday. He currently lines up to make his third start of the campaign Wednesday against St. Louis.

Control issues in no-decision Alcantara didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Giants, giving up three runs (two earned) on three hits and five walks over five innings. He stru...
Impact The right-hander threw only 44 of 83 pitches for strikes before exiting with Miami down 3-0, but a ninth-inning rally took him off the hook for a loss. Considering he posted a career-best 6.0 percent walk rate in 2021, this performance can be chalked up to an abbreviated spring buildup. Alcantara will look to sharpen his control in his next start Thursday against the Phillies, in the Marlins' home opener.

Marlins name Sandy Alcantara opening day starter vs SF

Draws Opening Day start Alcantara will start the Marlins' Opening Day matchup against the Giants on Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Impact Alcantara has developed into the Marlins' ace across the last three seasons and will unsurprisingly serve as the Opening Day starter for a third consecutive year. The right-hander made a career-high 33 starts in 2021 and posted a 3.19 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 201:50 K:BB in 205.2 innings.

Continues to get stretched out Alcantara gave up one run on one hit over four innings in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals. He struck out four without walking a batter.
Impact Juan Soto took him deep in the first inning, but there's no shame in losing a battle against arguably the best pure hitter in the game. Alcantara is off to a strong start this spring as he prepares for another Opening Day assignment for the Marlins and looks to build on the 3.16 ERA and 1.09 WHIP he's posted over the last two seasons.

Sharp in Friday's spring opener Alcantara struck out one over three perfect innings in Friday's Grapefruit League opener against the Nationals.
Impact The right-hander is expected to make his third straight Opening Day start for the Marlins this season, and Alcantara looked like he was nearly in midseason form already as he took the mound for the first time this spring for game action. Alcantara set career highs in wins (nine), innings (205.2) and strikeouts (201) in 2021, and with more offensive support the 26-year-old's fantasy value could take another step forward this season.
