Marlins place Kyle Stowers on 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain

MIAMI (AP) — The Miami Marlins placed first baseman/outfielder Kyle Stowers on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a left hamstring strain. Stowers left with hamstring discomfort in the fifth inning of Miami’s 12-3 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday. He grimaced as he rounded first after hitting a two-run single and was immediately replaced by pinch runner Leo Jimenez.

Manager Clayton McCullough said Stowers would undergo further examination. The Marlins recalled infielder Graham Pauley from Triple-A Jacksonville to fill Stowers’ spot on the active roster as they begin a six-game homestand. Miami begins a three-game series against Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

It is Stowers’ second stint on the injured list this year after a right hamstring strain sidelined him the first few weeks of the season. Stowers had a career-best year in 2025 when he recorded 115 hits, 25 home runs and 73 RBIs in 117 games, earning his first career All-Star nod before a left oblique strain sidelined him for the final stretch of the season. He is hitting .242 with a .789 on-base-plus-slugging mark and 16 home runs.
