Ryan Gusto: Everything you need to know

The Marlins optioned Gusto to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.

The 27-year-old Gusto picked up a hold with a scoreless inning Wednesday in his lone appearance with the big club.

The Marlins recalled Gusto from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday. He'll join the 26-man active roster as a replacement in the bullpen for right-hander Pete Fairbanks, who was placed on the paternity list. Gusto collected a 5.67 ERA over 17 starts and 10 relief appearances in 2025 between the Astros and Marlins. He went five innings in his lone start with Jacksonville this season and will give the Miami bullpen some length.

The Marlins optioned Gusto to Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday. After failing to capture a starting or long-relief role with the Marlins heading into Opening Day, Gusto appears set to begin the season in the rotation at Jacksonville. The right-hander came over from Houston in a deadline deal last July and proceeded to go 0-3 with a 9.77 ERA and 1.72 WHIP over 15.2 innings in his three starts with Miami to close out the 2025 season.
