Miami Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara delivers a pitch

The Miami Marlins exercised Sandy Alcantara’s $21 million club option Friday, bringing back the right-hander for 2027. The former Cy Young Award winner led the majors with 214 innings in 2026.

Alcantara made 33 starts and recorded 21 quality starts in his second season back from Tommy John surgery. He also recorded his first three career saves during the final two weeks of the season.

The decision keeps Miami’s longest-tenured player at the top of a rotation that also has Eury Pérez and Janson Junk among its returning options.
