The Socsargen Marlins were a professional basketball team in the defunct Metropolitan Basketball Association from 1998-2001.

The Marlins represents South Cotabato, Sarangani and General Santos. Their team owner in Metroball's inaugural season was Ruben Solon.[1]

First two seasons

As one of the most talented teams in the South, the Marlins' hardworking cager Maximo Delantes figured prominently in the MVP race but couldn't make it to the MBA mythical five due to his team's disastrous stints in each of the playoffs. Coach Biboy Ravanes was replaced by fellow ex-pro Willie Generalao at the Marlins' bench at the start of the 2000 MBA season. In 2001, the team was renamed as Taguig Marlins' in the second phase conference.
