Twelve straight games with a home run will change how you look at a lineup, and that’s exactly what Jacksonville is doing right now. We start the Miami Marlins Minor League Report by spotlighting the Jumbo Shrimp’s relentless power run in Norfolk, where the long ball keeps showing up from all corners of the roster. Twenty-eight homers in 12 games is eye-popping, but the real separator is that 15 different players have contributed, with Jonathon Long headlining the week with a two-homer night that blows the game open late and keeps Jacksonville from slipping below .500.

From there, we jump to Double-A Pensacola, where the standings pressure is real and the playoff math is simple: the magic number is down to one. We break down the skid that tightened the race, then the response that loosened it again, including the arrival of slugger Max Williams and his instant impact. A clutch ninth-inning go-ahead homer in his Double-A debut sets the tone, and a five-homer explosion the very next night pushes the Blue Wahoos right to the edge of popping champagne.

We also cover High-A Beloit’s busy week of promotions and why that matters for player development, even without a postseason ticket. The Sky Carp still manage to put a stamp on 2026 with 140 home runs and counting, the most in franchise history. Finally, we check in with Low-A Jupiter as Echedry Vargas extends a single-season franchise home run record and the pitching staff racks up strikeouts while the Hammerheads line up a playoff series against Daytona.
