MIAMI (AP) — The Miami Marlins played baseball over seven different months this season and had a winning record in only one. That would be October. They went 2-1. The hope entering the season was to play meaningful baseball in October and the Marlins fell way short of that plan in 2021. They finished 67-95 and 21 1/2 games behind Atlanta in the NL East race, never really contending for anything a year after making baseball’s expanded 16-team postseason in 2020.
