I honestly believe that the biggest reason the Marlins are not popular in Miami is the lack of a franchise players who’s played their entire career or a significant portion of their career in a Marlins Uniform. There have been many great players who have played here, (Beckett, Cabrera, Willis, Stanton, etc.) But none of them have have played here for a significant amount of time (except for Stanton, he played for the Marlins for about 8 years).
Its hard to be invested in a franchise when you know your favorite players are just gonna end up somewhere else.
The Heat had Wade, the Dolphins had Marino, hell even the Panthers had Luongo. Who do the Marlins have? Jeff Conine?
This fanbase has been kicked in the balls by ownership over and over and over and over again. If you say Marlins massive historical firesale, you need to specify which one you’re talking about. It’s amazing anyone is a fan of this team.
